Expand Are fan made mock-ups so much better than most professional kits because it's a labour of love instead of a job, or do professional kit designers just not have much freedom because they've got loads of input and demands from assorted clients and corporate bullshit?

Kid Icarus Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 (edited) Done a couple using existing adidas kits as an indication of what they'll do, so added the castles to the socks, patch on the back and stuff. Based on how they were talking in the Amazon documentary (ie a modern 02-03 kit) - don't really like it. Based on the most recent footyheadlines leak (a modern 87-88 kit) - still don’t really like it because of the patch on the back Edited December 7, 2023 by Kid Icarus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
