NurembergVillan Posted June 19, 2019 Moderator Share Posted June 19, 2019 13 minutes ago, Teale's 'tache said: Makes sense now you mention it, one of many cases where function overrules design, all a designer can do is make the best they can with the guidelines given to them I would always have a copy of every league and competition guidelines on my desk. They're often different, so what is allowed in the Premier League may not be in a UEFA competition and vice versa. At one point the guidelines for FIFA and UEFA were different, so whilst the overall size allowed for a brand logo was the same the method of measuring them was different (one inside a box so any negative space was counted, one that used straight lines between points - e.g. the Puma cat was measured in a square for one competition and a triangle for another so in effect they were different sizes).

Absolutely love all three. They're nice, for sure. One of them has an element that is pretty close to what I saw. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you consider the restrictions and guidelines the kit designers have to work to they really do a magnificent job most of the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are nice. Can I ask what the template is called? Been looking for a decent one for a good few weeks now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shorts on the graffiti when Kappa were announced were blue is this what you have seen? Also West Ham are doing shirts with and without sponsor is this something you think could catch on? I guess a design always has to take in the sponsor which limits certain things? From my point of view the sponsor pays the club not me so if I could say pay an extra fiver for a shirt without I would be more than happy.

Yep, you can find it here https://psfiles.com/new-football-kit-mockup-2019/ It's quite a big file, but pretty easy to use if you know your way around Photoshop 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyblade Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 That white one is too clean. Shame because I already have 2 white Villa kits that look very similar, can't justified what is it, 50 odd pounds for another one. Just hoping that third kit looks good.

I hated the spurs kit from last year, but for some reason I like that third strip. Maybe it’s the black/blue thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
