Hi! I’m Bozif - you may have seen some of my concepts going viral on social media or know me as the guy from YouTube who designs concept football shirts.
Create your own kits with FIFA Kit Creator Now
I’ve been creating kits for a few years now, and I currently make videos for the official Kit Creator social media accounts. I’ve worked with sportswear brands to bring some of my kits to life in the real world, and now I’m really excited to be teaming up with Footy Headlines to share a new series of articles that will help you make your own football kit concepts - ones that are original, imaginative, and realistic.
We’ll be using just one easy-to-use online tool - Kit Creator. And in this first article, I’ll walk you through the basics: how to use the tool, where to get inspiration, and how to get started making your own kits.
Some of the kits I created
🧰 What Is Kit Creator?
The tool I use - and the one I recommend - is simply called Kit Creator. There are currently four different versions available:
Each version allows you to create football kits that you can even import into their respective video games - but that’s not what we’re focusing on here.
If, like me, you’re mostly interested in designing kits for the sake of creativity and art, I recommend using either the FIFA or EAFC Kit Creators, which are the best and basically the same. They offer different 3D models, which you can choose by clicking the settings button in the main kit creator and scrolling down to the dropdown under “3D model.”
💡 My Tips
To get the most out of your designs, I recommend the following settings.
- For realism, go with the FIFA Kit Creator’s “Tight” model
- For style and flair, try the EAFC Kit Creator’s “Flying” model
- Use Day, Day (l) or Day (r) lighting - they’re the most realistic
🧠 Deciding What to Create
Once your settings are sorted, it’s time to ask yourself a few key questions:
- Will this be a home, away, third, or goalkeeper kit?
- What brand and template are you going to use?
- What sponsor and colours will bring your idea to life?
These early decisions help narrow things down and give you a good foundation for your design.
🐳 Where I Find Inspiration
PSG Olympics kit concept by stevezz
Whenever I’m low on ideas, I like to check out the FIFA Kit Creator Showcase and scroll through the Top Kits of the Day. There are loads of great designers on there - creators like Marciozhugo, stevezz, and leyalmighty are always putting out amazing work that can really spark new ideas.
leyalmighty and Marciozhugo rarely disappoint with their designs
Of course, copying someone else’s kit is a big no-no, but it only takes a spark of inspiration to get going.
I imagined what New Balance could look like for West Ham when they take over from the 26-27 season
Let’s say you see a Wales kit with a cool dragon effect, and it makes you think:“Hmm… a dragon kit would look great.”
That could lead to a completely original FC Porto concept with dragon scales. All it took was that one idea, and now it’s your own.
🧩 Brands, Templates & Logos
Sometimes it’s easiest to stick with the team’s real-life badge, brand, and sponsor, using the most updated templates. That’s a great way to get started.
But if you want to challenge yourself a bit more, you can reimagine the club completely:
- Use a different brand
- Add a retro sponsor
- Even design your own concept badge
This can totally change the style of the kit - and that’s the fun of it.
For example, I made an Inter kit using Joma instead of their real partner Nike.That branding switch brought a whole new aesthetic - Joma and Nike have different kit styles, so I adapted my design to match Joma’s vibe.
🙋 Got Questions?
That’s it for the Introduction! I’ve got a few more articles coming in the next few weeks, which will take you further into the world of kit design and help you refine your skills - whether you're a beginner or looking to level up your designs.

Weymouth FC Restores Historic Crest as Part of New Visual Identity
Weymouth Football Club has unveiled a restored version of its historic crest, presented with the caption "Restored, not replaced." The update keeps the badge instantly recognizable while refining it for greater clarity, sharpness, and versatility in modern applications. This approach avoids a full redesign in favor of preserving the traditional elements that fans associate with the club.
The restored crest sits at the core of a broader visual identity refresh announced by the club. Additional elements include new wordmarks for flexible communication, a secondary WFC shield logo, and a Jubilee Anchor mark that connects the club to local Weymouth symbols such as the Jubilee Clock and pavilion anchor. The primary crest will feature on upcoming team kits and official materials.
Club statements highlight the work as a way to standardize assets and safeguard the identity long-term. The changes maintain continuity with the badge's long-standing design while improving its overall presentation across digital and physical uses.
Ezeta and Daniel Norris Reveal New Tivoli Calcio Logo
Italian creative sports brand Ezeta has officially presented a brand-new logo for Tivoli Calcio 1919. Designed in collaboration with graphic designer Daniel Norris, the updated crest aligns perfectly with Ezeta's established reputation for blending modern design aesthetics with deep local history, providing the Italian side with a highly bespoke and culturally resonant identity.
The newly unveiled emblem intricately weaves several of the city's most recognizable historical landmarks and symbols into a single, cohesive design. The crest prominently features a traditional eagle, the historic Rocca Pia fortress, a classic three-arched bridge, and the flowing waters of the Aniene River. These carefully chosen elements have long safeguarded the historical identity of Tivoli, and their inclusion ensures the club's badge remains deeply connected to its geographical roots.
According to Ezeta, the updated logo was specifically created to celebrate the city's rich heritage and highlight the pride of the local "Tiburtini" people.

Leaked: Official Look at Nike x Palace England Jacket and Boots
Following the announcement of the highly anticipated England x Nike x Palace World Cup collection, we have the first detailed images, courtesy of sneaker insider @vladieboi.
The image shows a striking full-zip Enfland Palace track jacket paired with matching pants. The tracksuit features a two-tone grey and silver colorway, dominated by a geometric, repeating cross pattern that serves as a subtle, stylized nod to the St. George's Cross. The defining detail, however, sits on the right chest: a bespoke co-branded logo that sees the iconic red Nike Swoosh slicing directly through the famous Palace Tri-Ferg emblem, sitting opposite the traditional England national team crest.
Also visible is a pair of retro-inspired Nike x Palace footwear. Bearing a strong resemblance to classic heritage silhouettes like the Nike Premier, the black shoes feature a nostalgic fold-over tongue adorned with bold red "PALACE" text and a small white Swoosh. The boots come with a cage, making it easy to wear them on the streets.
What are your thoughts on the co-branded logo and the retro-styled boots in this Nike x Palace England collection? Let us know in the comments below.
