Irish football fans were loving Didi Hamann's outfit for RTE's World Cup coverage on Saturday.
The former Liverpool midfielder has become a fan favourite for his frank punditry style, but it was his dress sense that got people talking.
While Hamann's navy blazer was nothing unusual, it was his combination of it with a white turtleneck jumper that was noteworthy.

One person commented: "Didi Hamann in the studio there looks like he should be on the Bridge of the Ferry to the Aran Islands, asking the lads are they going fishing for Mackerel with him."
Another social media user said: "Very much digging Didi Hamann's Jazz Dad/Trendy Captain Birdseye's look on RTÉ."
Someone else commented: "Didi Hamann, Why are you dressed like captain haddock from Tintin."
Another wrote: "Didi Hamann dressed like an Aldi Bond villain. Outstanding."
While another theorised: "I’m a big fan of Didi Hamann’s metamorphosis into an eccentric History of Art lecturer who invites his tutorial groups to wine and cheese parties in his apartment."
Hamann is never afraid to criticise players and managers, including his own country Germany after their shock 2-1 opening defeat to Japan this week.
The RTE pundit tore into Germany after the game and admitted he wasn't overly surprised by the result.
He said: "I didn't fancy this Germany team before the start of the tournament, and obviously there is Spain to come now, if you don't beat them it's probably out of your hands in the third game.
"I'm not saying one player makes the difference, but the fact that he didn't take [Mats] Hummels, he took [Armel] Bella-Kotchap - who's a very good young player - he took a player from Leipzig, Klostermann, who has been injured for four months, and it just didn't make sense to me."
Hamann also suggested that Germany Hansi Flick was perhaps suffering from selecting a less vocal squad for the tournament in Qatar.
He continued: "It looked to me that he wants a quiet team, but a quiet team won't win you anything.
"It showed today, when questions were asked, they didn't know what to do and there were not enough players to take responsibilities and make decisions.
"As soon as Japan started to play after 55-60 minutes, you saw how fragile they [Germany] are at the back.
"No confidence, they didn't look a team to me."
And the German native concluded that the result was somewhat surprising but not a huge shock.
"A surprise? Yes.
"A big surprise - I would say no."
