  1. One of these guys is doing a job that requires lots of soft skills.

    The other guy looks like he never grew out of his “cops and robbers” phase.

  2. I don’t really like gards so I do like that someone is making them dress as like a ‘ can i help you’ character at a children’s theme park for some reason but I am confused how it happened

  3. Was Brendan Gleeson not available to model it?

    Looks like a shitty Halloween costume and it’s going to look 10 times worse on a fat Garda on a hot day. There’s a reason most forces go with the darker blues.

  4. Should have been a darker colour perhaps, but it’s definitely a move in the right direction. Having Gardai wearing what was practically a suit in their day to day activities was laughable.

  5. Remove the tactical gear and they look about the same. I bet the lad on left can heft a square bail twice the distance

  6. The PSNI also got a new uniform, to model it they had two fit looking coppers showing it off. Which is…not what has happened here.

  7. Just something about a rugged man covered in tactical gear and weapons in a confident stance does something to you. The soft, unassuming figure of the PE uniformed man with his wee belt doesn’t inspire the same reaction however it could have been achieved! Ireland deserves sexy cops.

  8. He looks lovely. Never mind these lads. You look lovely, Páidín. Never mind these lot. They are only jealous. Páidín is a good lad. Be nice to him okay.

  9. Unless they change the shoes that state on the box that they’re not to be worn while walking long periods of time, uniform will only slightly increase mobility. The boots are a massive hindrance

  10. Those are some unusually long sleeves. Looks like something you’d panic buy on Oct 31st for a party that evening

  11. That new uniform is horrific and cheap looking. This is why design and good designers do matter! I would love to know who designed that crap and who made decision to approve

  12. Guy 0n the left reminds me of 14 year old me hating my school uniform, that’s how bad the new garda uniform is.

  13. The new uniform is shit but can we all just appreciate the fact that our police force doesn’t carry send me automatic weapons.

    Note the original reason for this was because the government thought that the garden would attempted coup in the early years of the free State and also guns are expensive.
