How Much Do Custom Soccer Uniforms Really Cost in 2026?

A transparent price breakdown for youth clubs, academies and amateur teams.

If you're a coach, team manager or club director, one of the first questions you'll ask is: "How much should custom soccer uniforms actually cost?" The answer varies wildly depending on where you buy from, what fabric you choose, and how many sets you order. In this guide, we break down real prices so you can budget correctly and avoid overpaying.

The Short Answer

For a full custom sublimated soccer kit (jersey + shorts), you should expect to pay:

• $45–$60 per set at a local US printer
• $35–$45 per set at a local sporting goods store
• $12–$24 per set direct from a factory in China

That's right — going direct to the factory can save you up to 60% compared to local US printers. And the quality is identical: same 100% polyester fabric, same full sublimation printing, same stitching standards.

Price Comparison: Local vs Factory Direct

Factor	Local US Printer	Sporting Goods Store	Factory Direct (ProKits)
Price per set	$45–$60	$35–$45	$12–$24
Minimum order	15+ sets	10+ sets	5 sets
Design fee	$50–$100	Included	FREE
Revisions	1–2 rounds	2 rounds	Unlimited
Production time	10–14 days	7–10 days	7 days

What's Included in the Price?

When you order from ProKits, the price per set already includes everything:

• Full sublimation printing — your team colors, logos, sponsor badges
• Player names and numbers — free on the back and sleeves
• Free design service — our in-house designer creates a mockup within 24 hours
• Unlimited revisions — we tweak until you're 100% happy
• Individual folding and packaging — each jersey folded and sorted by size

What Factors Affect the Price?

1. Order Quantity

The more sets you order, the lower the per-set price. Here's how it works:

• 5–10 sets: ~$18–$24 per set (small teams, new clubs)
• 11–30 sets: ~$15–$18 per set (most youth academies)
• 31–100 sets: ~$13–$15 per set (large clubs, resellers)
• 100+ sets: ~$12 per set and below (bulk wholesale)

2. Fabric Weight

Heavier fabric costs slightly more:

• 140GSM match fabric: lowest price, best for games
• 160GSM training fabric: mid-price, best for practice
• 200GSM goalkeeper fabric: highest price, includes padding

3. Kit Type

A full kit (jersey + shorts + socks) costs more than a jersey alone. But buying the full set together is cheaper than buying pieces separately.

Hidden Fees to Watch Out For

Some companies advertise low prices but stack on hidden fees:

• Setup / design fees ($50–$100): ProKits never charges this
• Number printing fees ($2–$5 per jersey): included free with us
• Logo digitization fees ($30–$80): included free with us
• Rush order surcharges (30% extra): we offer 3-day rush if needed
• Shipping fees: free on orders over $150 via DHL

Sample Jerseys: Try Before You Buy

Still not sure about quality? We offer physical sample jerseys for just $25, including free DHL shipping. You pick the fabric, colors and even a player name/number. When you place a bulk order over $150, the $25 sample fee is fully credited back. This lets you feel the fabric, check the print quality and verify sizing before committing to a full team order.

Is Factory Direct Really That Much Cheaper?

Yes — and it's not because the quality is lower. The price difference comes from cutting out middlemen:

Local printers buy from factories, add a markup, and resell to you. Sporting goods stores buy from distributors, who buy from importers, who buy from factories. Each layer adds 30–100% to the price. When you order directly from ProKits, you skip all those layers — same factory, same quality, fair price.
