🍀 St Patrick's Day: It wasn't Always About Green Beer

Let's clear something up.

St Patrick’s Day didn’t start with green pints and questionable dance moves. It started with… a missionary, a few legends, and a lot of symbolism. According to legend, St Patrick used the humble shamrock to explain the Holy Trinity. Three leaves. One plant. Simple. Clever. Over time, it became a symbol of Ireland itself — luck, faith, heritage.

Not bad for a little green leaf.

🐍 The Snakes

You’ve probably heard he “drove the snakes out of Ireland.”

Fun fact? There likely weren’t any snakes to begin with.

Most historians think it was symbolic — pushing out old beliefs, bringing in new ones. So yes. Slightly dramatic. Very on brand for history.

💚 Why We Wear Green

Ireland wasn’t always associated with green — it was originally blue. Green rose later, tied to the shamrock and Irish identity. Now? It’s basically mandatory.

And that’s where we come in.

If you love a bit of meaning behind what you wear, our Celtic knot pieces and shamrock styles are the perfect nod — subtle, wearable, and full of story.

(And if subtle’s not your thing… don’t worry. We’ve got the fun, loud, “spot me across the pub” pieces too .)
