Shopping for the right football kit is a daunting task, whether you’re a coach or proud parent wanting the best for your child. There are many options, so it is important to make the right choice for you, your child, or your players.
Below is a quick guide on how to buy a football kit. You have many options, so it is helpful to know what your options are.
What to look for in football team kits
Adults
If you order in bulk, there are great deals on adult teamwear. A full kit can be purchased right away by a coach, administrator or other club official. It will cost you more in the long term, even though it will be expensive at first.
All you need to help your team get through a long season is within reach at a very reasonable price. A complete kit package may include the following:
Outfield shirts
Outfield shirts
Goalkeeper shirt
Goalkeeper shorts
Socks
Shirt numbers
Match ball
Kit bag
There are many options available, so you can find the one that best represents your team’s colours. All your players need is the football boots, shin pads and everything else.
Juniors
The same basic football kit package that is available for adults can also be purchased for children. Shirt sizes vary from XSY and LY, with a 24-inch chest to 32-inch chest. Shorts come in sizes between 20 and 28 inches. Sock sizes can be adjusted from nine to six for children and adults.
How to Choose the Perfect Fit
It is best to choose a larger shirt or shorter size. You can ask your players for these sizes, but it’s worth going up a size just in case. It’s better to be a little looser than skin-tight when you have shorts and shirts.
If your body measurements are between two sizes, you can go down one size for a tight fitting garment, or up one for an open fit. Sizes will vary depending on individual preferences.
Options for small-sided businesses
You don’t have to worry if your team is five-a-side. There are also team kits available for smaller-sided teams. Mitre has a great deal on a package with four outfield kit and a goalkeeper set at an affordable price.
Or, you can select how many kits you wish to purchase and receive a bulk-buying discount. You can also choose how many additional kit you want, in addition to the five that are included. You also have the option to choose the color, shirt number, and name for each shirt.
Warm-Up & Training Kits
You should make sure your football strips are clean and tidy for matches. Warm-up shorts can be used for training or match preparation. They are light, flexible, and fairly affordable.
You can purchase training shirts in many different colours, or bulk orders for a discounted price. You can also add names and numbers to the shirts. Mitre ProFlow tops for example have high-performance fabric to keep players cool. These tops are not only practical but also beautiful. These are a great value for money, and they cost less than a tenner each.
Rain Jackets
Rain can ruin any training session or pre-match warm up. Rain jackets are always handy. Mitre’s ProShield options provide excellent value. They are lightweight, water-resistant and flexible. The jackets can also be customized with numbers or initials of players, just as professional clubs.
There is no need to spend thousands on high quality, long-lasting football kit. If you are willing to purchase in bulk, there is a lot of great savings.
