It come from old celtic mythology where maroon was considered the colour of victory, it was also said that those wearing maroon were always facing west, subsequently 'West'meath and Galway adopted the colour.

Very interesting.

Anyone ever had any real issues with O'Neill's customer service? I've just taken delivery of a significant enough order of club gear for the family. Embroidery, some personalisation etc but the state of it is appalling. There's an absolute mountain of backing material from the embroidery left on it currently and when I first got on to them they told me they wouldn't refund it as the garment itself was fine and suggested I cut the backing material myself, while acknowledging that this should have been done in house. They subsequently suggested that it was merely an "aesthetic issue". The sheer quantity of the material left on it is an irritant.

Pushing them for a refund but they're refusing to budge. They say the garments are not defective and because they're personalised, can't offer a refund. They have offered to do the repair work themselves if I can return it to them. They of course can't organise collection because I'm outside the UK and Ireland, but that they'll reimburse me.

I'm being a moany p***k, but there's absolutely no way they'd let items like this be sold off the rack in store, so I'm not certain why it's any different for an online purchase. It's not one or two items either. It's anything with embroidery in a total order of several hundred euro. Thoughts? Am I being too pushy, or f**k it, considering what I've shelled out should I go all the way with it?

Not necessarily an update on this but somewhat adjacent. Club put in a big order for them recently. Jerseys, shorts and a rake of their new reversible bibs. Jerseys had the wrong crest on them. Bibs that arrived, despite being ordered in "Adult" size, were sized "Juvenile 14-15".

Their quality/quality control at the minute is a complete and utter shambles.

What are McKeever like size-wise, in comparison with O'Neills?

There doesn't seem to be any size guide online.

Thanks.

In my (portly) experience, McKeever's would be smaller fitting. So an O'Neills Large would equate to a McKeevers Extra Large.

As a portly person I agree. A 2xl is a tight fit, whereas an O'Neills XL was fine.

MFCs fittings would also be smaller than Oneills.  Not sure why a large is different to diff manufacturers.

Vanity sizing

Where O'Neill's XL was perfect, with McKeever would need a 3XL to be comfortable ... it's nuts how one manufacturer differs from another.  I think McKeever's is the anomaly here big time, a fella in the queue in front of me a couple of weeks ago was looking his money back on a McKeever 4XL he had bought that still didn't fit, and no way was he a 4XL size.

The only McKeever size I'd buy with confidence would be one of their baseball caps.

Ah boys you wanna try and buy cycling gear, some XLs wouldn't fit a 10 year old.
