How Long Does It Take to Get Custom Soccer Jerseys?

October 4, 2026 · 5 min read

This is the #1 question every team manager asks: "How fast can I get our custom jerseys?" The answer depends on where you order from, how complex your design is, and where you're shipping to. Here's the complete timeline so you can plan ahead.

The Standard Timeline (China Factory Direct)

Design & Quote Confirmation — 1–2 days

Send us your logo, colors, and size list. We create a digital mockup and send a quote. You confirm or request changes. Most teams decide within 48 hours.

Payment & Artwork Finalization — 1 day

30% deposit starts production. We send the final approved artwork for your sign-off. No surprises after this point.

Production — 5–7 days

Sublimation printing, cutting, sewing, quality check. A 15-player team takes about 5–7 days on our production line. Larger orders (100+ kits) may take 10–12 days.

Shipping — 3–7 days

DHL/FedEx express to US, UK, EU, Australia. Tracking number sent same day as shipment. 98% of orders arrive within 7 days.

Total: 10–17 Days Order to Door

For a typical 15-player team shipped to the USA or Europe, expect your jerseys at your door in about 2–3 weeks from order confirmation.

Destination	Production	Express Shipping	Total
USA / Canada	5–7 days	3–5 days	10–14 days
UK / Europe	5–7 days	3–5 days	10–14 days
Australia / NZ	5–7 days	4–6 days	11–15 days
Rest of World	5–7 days	5–7 days	12–17 days

What Can Delay Your Order?

Last-minute design changes — every change after artwork approval resets the production clock by 1–2 days.
Logo files not ready — send vector files (AI, EPS, SVG) the first time. Low-res PNG logos require redrawing, which adds 1–2 days.
Size list incomplete — missing player sizes means we can't cut fabric. Collect all sizes before ordering.
Peak season (July–August) — preseason ordering is busy. Add 3–5 extra days during summer.
Custom labels/patches — woven labels, embroidered crests, and custom tags add 2–3 days.

Pro tip: Order at least 4 weeks before your first game. This gives you buffer time for unexpected delays, and you'll have time to try on the sample and exchange any wrong sizes.

How to Speed Up Your Order

Send everything at once: logo file, team name, player names/numbers, size list — all in the first email.
Approve artwork quickly: we send mockups within 24 hours. The faster you approve, the faster we produce.
Pay the deposit on time: production doesn't start until deposit is received.
Choose express shipping: ePacket takes 2–4 weeks but saves $20–40. DHL/FedEx costs more but arrives in 3–5 days.

Do You Offer Rush Service?

Yes. For urgent orders (team starts in 2 weeks), we offer 7-day rush production (5 days production + 2 days expedited shipping). Rush service costs an additional 15% and is available for orders under 30 kits. Contact us by WhatsApp to check availability.
