The blank front-and-back kit templates are made for inventing your own stripes, badge and sponsor — so no two finished jerseys ever look the same.
Design the Shirt: Color a Soccer Jersey in Your Team’s Colors!
A soccer jersey is all about team colors—solid colors, stripes or hoops, a crest on the chest, a number on the back, and trim on the sleeves and collar. Coloring it neatly makes the shirt look like a real matchday kit.
What to Watch for While Coloring a Jersey
- Pick team colors: choose one or two main colors and keep them bold and even across the shirt.
- Stripes and patterns: color stripes or hoops carefully, keeping the lines straight and even.
- The crest: the badge on the left chest is small—color it carefully with bright colors.
- The number: leave the number a contrasting color (often white) so it’s easy to read.
- Sleeves and collar: a different-colored trim on the sleeves and collar makes the shirt look finished.
- The sponsor: the logo across the front can be a simple block of color.
- Folds: add a few light gray shadows in the folds so the shirt looks like real fabric.
Helpful hint: color the main shirt color first, then add the stripes, crest, and number on top so everything stays neat.
