O'Neills Irish International Sports Company Ltd. is an Irish sporting goods manufacturer established in 1918.[1] It is the largest manufacturer of sportswear in Ireland,[1] with production plants located in Dublin and Strabane.

O'Neills has a long relationship with Irish rugby and association football and sports of Gaelic Athletic Association. The company currently supplies kits to 29 of the 32 inter-county teams in both Gaelic football and hurling; only Armagh GAA, Leitrim GAA and Waterford GAA do not use O'Neills kits.

The O'Neills brand has been producing uniform kits, footballs and sliotars (hurling and shinty balls) for Gaelic games but is fast becoming a major supplier to rugby and association football clubs across Ireland, Britain, Europe and North America. O'Neills was the exclusive supplier to the Irish Provinces for many years and to the Irish international teams during their Triple Crown era.
