How Custom Football Kits Are Made

A reliable custom football kit is the result of controlled decisions before, during and after production. The ONZE5 workflow connects the club brief, artwork, fabric, sizing, manufacturing and delivery plan.

1. Requirements

The buyer provides product types, estimated quantity, size range, destination, required arrival date, club crest, sponsor files and design references.

2. Design & Artwork

Colours, graphic patterns, crest, sponsors, player names and numbers are organised into the kit design. Buyers can start from existing artwork, reference images or a new concept.

3. Fabric & Construction

Fabric is selected according to the garment, weight, knit structure, ventilation, stretch and required hand feel. Construction details and decoration methods are confirmed before bulk production.

4. Sample or Pre-Production Approval

Depending on the project, the buyer reviews fabric, sizing, colour, artwork placement and construction before bulk production. Approval speed affects the overall schedule.

5. Sublimation or Decoration

For sublimated football jerseys, the artwork is transferred into compatible polyester fabric. Other products may use embroidery or heat transfer where appropriate.

6. Cutting & Sewing

Printed or prepared fabric is cut to the approved pattern and assembled. Different products such as jerseys, tracksuits and jackets require different constructions.

7. Inspection

Finished products are checked against the approved order details, including size, artwork and requested customisation.

8. Packing & Delivery

Orders are packed according to the project requirement. Courier, air or sea freight is selected according to quantity, product mix, budget and required arrival date.
