Politehnica Iași away kit concept, built as a quiet tribute to one of the city’s strongest symbols, Mănăstirea Sfinții Trei Ierarhi. The idea was to bring that “stone lace” architecture into a modern football shirt without turning it into a costume. So the base stays clean white, and the pattern sits tone on tone, like carved relief, it reveals itself as you get closer.

The template is my own, developed from a silhouette inspired by the kit Poli wore in 2009, reworked with sharper contemporary lines and a more athletic flow through the body. The blue framing follows the same logic, it guides the eye from collar to side, wrapping the shirt like a structural outline, similar to how the monastery’s ornament bands wrap the facade.

Performance details matter as much as story. Side and shoulder mesh panels are placed for airflow and heat release, with armpit mesh panels for moisture wicking in high sweat zones. The collar is a half rib construction for comfort and shape retention, with a clean, understated finish that keeps the focus on the texture. Even the small elements, sleeve edge trims and panel cuts, are designed to feel engineered, not decorative.

This is Romanian football heritage translated into a Liga 2 ready concept shirt, respectful, functional, and unmistakably Iași.

If you’re a Poli fan, would you wear this as the away kit, or would you push the pattern stronger?

I built this Politehnica Iași black kit around one idea, let the construction do the talking. Instead of forcing a graphic, I kept the base clean and used performance zoning as the identity.

The thin electric blue piping works like a technical outline, it maps the raglan build and frames the key zones so the silhouette reads sharp even in full black. The shoulder panels and side panels are mesh for ventilation, so the kit feels lighter and more breathable where it matters.

The white rib inserts are there for function first, they act as elastic flexibility panels to support movement and keep the fit clean under motion. On the sleeves the rib wraps from front to back as a split triangle insert, and on the shirt hem and the shorts sides the full triangular rib gussets add stretch and structure without adding visual noise.

I kept the branding simple and high contrast, white crest, swoosh and sponsor for clear hierarchy and legibility. Everything else stays quiet. Clean, engineered, and built to look fast without screaming.

What do you think, would you wear this kit, and what would you change, tell me in the comments.

This away concept uses the same construction language as the home kit, but with a completely different visual direction.

I kept the same template and performance structure, including the modern cut hems and the piping layout, then rebuilt the identity around a black base and a minimal, stylised St. George cross on the front. The graphic is applied in the club colours, blue and red, so it stays connected to FC Botoșani while giving the away kit a much stronger contrast and a cleaner, sharper presence.

The cross was the key inspiration for this concept. It comes from the city’s coat of arms, where St. George is an important symbol, and that local reference gave me a strong starting point for the front graphic. I wanted to translate that idea in a modern way, not as a literal historical element, but as a clean geometric structure that works within a football shirt.

The lines of the cross are intentionally minimal and stylised, so the shirt stays wearable and contemporary. On a black base, the blue and red become much more vivid, and the graphic reads clearly from distance without overcomplicating the design.

I also used white piping as a contour detail to define the shape of the shirt and sleeves, and to add contrast against the black. It helps frame the silhouette, sharpens the transitions, and gives the kit a more technical feel while still tying in with the white sponsor and manufacturer marks.

The result keeps the same overall template logic as the home version, but gives the away kit its own identity through symbolism, contrast, and a more minimal front graphic approach.

This concept was built around clarity, letting FC Botoșani’s colours lead the design in a way that feels modern, structured, and performance-led.

The foundation is the oversized side panel system, blue on the wearer’s right and red on the wearer’s left. I pushed the scale on purpose, I wanted the colours to read instantly from distance, not as small trims that get lost in movement. The panels are treated as functional zones too, they run through the body, extend into the sleeves, and sit under the armpits, so the colour blocking aligns with areas where you would expect breathability and freedom of movement. It keeps the identity bold, but still clean and easy to read.

To keep the language consistent across the upper body, the shoulder stripes follow the same left and right rule, blue on the right, red on the left. It’s a simple system, but it makes the kit feel considered from every angle.

The detail that ties everything together is the black piping. It starts at the hem, travels upward, wraps around the panels to outline and frame them, circles the sleeve cuffs, then continues onto the back. It adds contrast, sharpens the silhouette, and creates a clearer separation between the base and the colour zones. Black also connects naturally with the collar and the black manufacturer and sponsor marks, so the palette stays cohesive.

For the full look, the socks follow the same side-based colour rule at the top, with white striping so the detail stays crisp without competing with the larger panels.

Both the shirt and shorts finish with a modern hem cut to keep the silhouette clean and contemporary in motion. The goal here was to balance club identity, function, and a modern construction language, without overcomplicating it.

This is the third shirt of my Farul Constanța Feminin concept set.

After the home and away, I wanted the third kit to feel bolder but still elegant, something that really puts the club colour first. That’s why I chose a black base. Not to hide the identity, but to let the blue speak louder. The pinstripes stay vertical, sharper and more numerous, with high contrast white and blue lines cutting through the black to emphasise movement, rhythm, and presence.

Both the club crest and the Nike logo are executed in black with thin white outlines, produced as raised 3D plastic elements. The idea was to keep them discreet from a distance, but detailed up close, letting texture and material do the work rather than colour alone.

Compared to the home and away, I removed the lower back panel pinstripes entirely. With the increased stripe count and higher contrast on the front, continuity here would have created too much noise. A clean back gives clarity, improves legibility for the name and number, and keeps the shirt functional for match use.

The same serif font is kept across all three kits. It reinforces the classy, elegant direction I wanted for this project, and pairs naturally with the pinstripe language. The half split collar also returns, but it is fully black this time. It subtly helps draw the eye back into the vertical lines and keeps the club colour as the main design focus.

This shirt is about confidence without excess. Strong contrast, controlled detailing, and a clear visual hierarchy, designed specifically with women’s football in mind.

I wanted to design an away shirt for Farul Constanța Feminin that feels like a natural continuation of the home kit, not an afterthought. This away is a direct flip of the home design, created specifically to handle kit clashes while preserving identity, elegance, and coherence across the set.

The colour inversion keeps the visual language intact. The pinstripes remain central, reinforcing structure and rhythm, while the lighter base shifts the mood slightly, calmer, cleaner, and more understated, without losing presence. It is still unmistakably Farul, just expressed through a different balance of contrast.

As with the home shirt, the fit is tailored for women, following the body’s natural lines rather than forcing a generic silhouette. Comfort, movement, and confidence were priorities, because a kit should work with the player, not against her.

For the name and numbers, I chose a classy serif typeface, something often overlooked in modern football kits. The serif details complement the pinstripes and elevate the overall look, adding a subtle sense of heritage and refinement. It leans into a more timeless aesthetic, avoiding trends and focusing on longevity and character.

Logos remain centred to reinforce symmetry and calm, with the club crest sitting proudly above the manufacturer. The result is an away kit that feels deliberate, respectful, and considered, designed to exist alongside the home shirt as part of a unified visual identity, not just a functional alternative.

Women’s football deserves the same level of thought, care, and design ambition. This away kit is my way of continuing that conversation.

I wanted to design a football shirt for a Romanian women’s football club because I genuinely think the women’s game here deserves way more promotion, respect, and proper investment, not just in visibility, but in the level of design and performance product it gets. This Farul Constanța Feminin concept is my take on what a top Romanian women’s side should be wearing, something intentionally made for female athletes, not a downsized men’s template.

The starting point was fit. I built a women-first silhouette that follows the body in a more tailored way, so it feels supportive and comfortable in motion, without looking boxy or restrictive. From there, I wanted a clean, classy identity that still reads professional, so I used fine pinstripes to add structure and elegance without going loud. The front is centred, with the club crest sitting above the manufacturer mark, a badge-first hierarchy that feels composed and iconic.

The collar went through testing too. I initially had it white, but it felt too detached from the shirt, so I switched to a half split collar, blue at the front to blend into the base, white at the back to keep that crisp collar contrast. It’s ribbed for elasticity and shape retention, so it sits secure and avoids movement constraints at the neck.

Performance wise, the concept is built around Nike Dri-FIT ADV, so it’s not just visuals. The aim is better ventilation, moisture wicking, and that premium technical texture you expect from an elite kit.

For this presentation I created two versions, a clean studio version without sponsors or league badge so the design and construction read clearly, plus a match-ready version with the official sponsor set and the competition badge on the sleeve.

On the back, I added a cut and sew lower panel to extend the pinstripes from the front and sleeves onto the back for a complete, uniform look, while keeping the upper back clean blue so the name and number stay clear and readable from distance. Overall, the goal was simple, a kit that looks as reputable as the club is, clean, confident, performance-led, and actually designed around the athlete wearing it.

Inspired by the newly released adidas home kits, I imagined a design for Romania. I drew inspiration from a kit from the early 50s, featuring the flag on the chest and the new thick adidas stripes.

Inspired by the leaks on the new adidas away kits, I imagined a design for Romania. It features the traditional stripes, trefoil logo, flag-inspired cuffs and collar, and wordmark logo.

I wanted to capture something that truly feels like Moldova, something that speaks history and identity rather than just follow trends. The burgundy base comes from the old flag of the Principality of Moldova, a deep and powerful tone that hasn’t been used on a Moldova football kit before. It’s a colour that carries centuries of meaning, pride and unity, and I wanted to bring it back in a way that feels modern and timeless.

The gold embroidery pattern is reinterpreted from traditional Moldovan motifs, the kind you’d find on handmade shirts and woven textiles. Each symbol was redrawn and refined to fit the shirt’s structure, wrapping around the collar and sleeves like a cultural signature. The goal was to merge craftsmanship with performance design, a shirt that feels tailored, not manufactured.

From a distance, it reads as a modern football kit. Up close, it tells the story of where it comes from. The detailed neckline, the woven texture, and the balance between minimalist geometry and ornate embroidery were all chosen to represent Moldova’s blend of strength and elegance.

To me, this isn’t just a football concept, it’s a visual identity adapted for today’s game.
Designed for pride, built with precision, and made to honour.
