/ Construction detail
01 / Design review
Piece: Programme

Design direction shaped with players and coaches

Design review sessions with players and coaching staff gathered direct feedback on fit, ventilation, durability and branding preferences. That input guided pattern development rather than assumptions about how the kit would be worn.

02 / Construction review
Piece: Jersey

Construction methods reviewed for bulk and durability

Reviewed construction and joining methods to reduce bulk and improve durability, working from player feedback on comfort and fit at the shoulder, collar and side seams.

03 / Ventilation
Piece: Jersey

Mesh panelling revised for on-field conditions

Players raised turf debris collecting in open mesh panelling. Panel placement and mesh selection were revised so ventilation stayed effective without trapping material during play.

04 / Neckline + branding
Piece: Jersey

Neckline shape and logo placement refined

Neckline shape, colourways and logo placement were refined across review rounds based on player and coaching preference, keeping the kit recognisable while comfortable in motion.

Tech packs developed for production

The engagement delivered developed patterns and tech packs covering the tiered system, giving the program documentation it could take to a manufacturer.
