IT IS the careful way of wearing the county colours -- new GAA jewellery allowing fans to show their devious support without breaking any dress code.
Wearing a baggy jersey may be de rigueur on game days, but doing the same at work or in a fancy restaurant could earn you a citation from the manner police.
But as the 2012 GAA season gets under way, diehard fans will be capable to proudly support their counties anytime, anywhere using the 'Love Your County' compass.
Football and hurling fans will be able to eat, drink, sleep, lavish and even hit the sack with Sam Maguire and Liam McCarthy.
The iconic championship trophies are being replicated in pygmy sterling silver pendants and charms that can be worn around the neck or as bracelets.
The amassment also includes sterling silver, silver-plated and stainless steel charms, pendants and dog tags depicting stiff county colour jerseys, miniature footballs, hurleys and football boots.
There are also county-themed leather bracelets for children and teenagers and more casuistic cufflinks and tie-clips embossed with the GAA logo for the corporate fan.
