Change strips
County teams often wear provincial colours as change (Ulster: amber and black; Munster: blue)


 * Tipperary 1951 final wearing Munster crest, and single-colour jersey, probably all-blue like Munster; Wexford also single-colour and crest seems to be Leinster harp.

Goalkeepers did not always wear distinctive colours; did so by 1963 in football (though Offaly 1968 final did not), did not do so as late as 1975 in hurling.

Jersey sponsors first in 1991.

Other notes

 * 1949 Laois number 9 wore non-white shorts, unlike teammates.
 * As of 1977, Cork county board only supplied jerseys; players supplied their own shorts and socks, which led to controversy when Adidas offered panel members sponsored gear.
