Quick answer: A custom soccer uniform usually includes a jersey, shorts and socks, with a separate goalkeeper kit in a contrasting colour. Jerseys are made from lightweight, breathable polyester, and most clubs choose sublimation so crests, sponsor logos, names and numbers are part of the fabric. Order home and away kits together and collect every player’s size before the order is placed.
Key takeaways
- A full kit is jersey, shorts and socks, plus a different-coloured goalkeeper kit.
- Lightweight polyester knit is the standard jersey fabric.
- Sublimation handles crests, sponsors, stripes and patterns at no extra cost per colour.
- Order home and away kits together to keep colours and sizing consistent.
- Youth sizes and women’s fits can be mixed into the same order.
What does a full custom soccer kit include?
- Jersey: short or long sleeve, with a crew, V-neck or polo collar.
- Shorts: elastic waistband with drawcord, matching or contrasting colour.
- Socks: usually in team colours with a contrast top band.
- Goalkeeper kit: a jersey in a colour that differs from both teams and the referee, often long-sleeved and padded at the elbows.
Many clubs also add training tracksuits and training tops so the squad looks the same before and after the match.
Which fabric is best for soccer jerseys?
Soccer jerseys are made from polyester knits because they are light, quick-drying and keep their colour. Common options are a smooth interlock for a premium look, a fine mesh for extra airflow in hot climates, and a slightly heavier knit for winter or long-sleeve shirts. Polyester also accepts sublimation, which is how most modern kits are decorated. More detail is in our fabric guide.
How are crests, sponsors, names and numbers applied?
Sublimation prints the whole design, including crest, sponsor logos, stripes, names and numbers, into the fabric. It is light, flexible and does not crack. Some clubs prefer an embroidered or woven badge for the crest to give a premium feel, combined with sublimated sponsors and numbers. For simple solid-colour kits, numbers can be screen printed or heat applied. Compare the methods in sublimation vs screen printing vs tackle twill.
Home, away and goalkeeper: how should you plan colours?
Plan the home kit in your main club colours and the away kit in a contrasting colour that will not clash with common opponents. The goalkeeper kit must be distinguishable from both teams and the officials, so choose a colour no outfield kit uses. Ordering all three at once keeps fabric, sizing and print quality consistent.
How should a club collect sizes and player details?
Send a roster with each player’s size, name and number. Include youth sizes and women’s fits if needed; they can be mixed in one order. Check the size guide and, for a new design, approve a sample before production.
How long does a custom soccer kit take?
Timing depends on design approval, sampling, quantity and the delivery country. Order early in the off-season so kits arrive before the first match, and confirm the production and shipping time in your written quote. See all custom soccer uniforms and soccer jerseys.
