Jersey Mockup Templates

Sports jersey design is its own specialized discipline. Every element carries meaning - team colors, number placement, sponsor logos, name on the back, collar style, sleeve trim. A jersey mockup needs to handle all of these independently while making the whole composition look like a cohesive uniform, not a patchwork of editable layers.

Jersey templates span soccer/football, basketball (tank style), cycling, baseball (button-front), hockey, and esports/gaming. Each sport has its own construction details - V-neck versus crew neck, raglan versus set-in sleeves, mesh panels versus solid fabric - and the templates reflect those sport-specific differences.

What makes jersey mockups uniquely complex is the number and name placement system. Front number, back number, back nameplate, and sleeve numbers all need their own editable zones. Templates handle this with separate smart objects for each text/number zone, positioned according to the sport's standard placement rules. Soccer jersey numbers sit centered on the back with the name above. Basketball numbers are larger and sit on both chest and back. The templates follow these conventions.

Team color editing goes deeper than a simple body color change:

• Primary body color (front and back panels)
• Sleeve color (may differ from body on select templates)
• Collar and neck trim color
• Sleeve hem trim and shoulder stripe color
• Side panel and underarm mesh panel color
• Sponsor logo areas (chest, sleeve, back)

The fabric rendering matches each sport's typical material. Soccer jerseys show the dri-fit mesh texture with visible microperforation patterns. Basketball jerseys show the mesh tank fabric with larger perforations. Cycling jerseys show the tight-fitting lycra/spandex surface. Each fabric type reflects light and shows wrinkles differently.

Number and name legibility is critical - fans, team managers, and league officials all scrutinize these details. The resolution supports clean rendering of multi-digit numbers, player names, and small sponsor logos at their actual relative sizes on the jersey.

Sports team uniform designers, league merchandise companies, and esports teams are the most frequent users here, along with corporate sports event organizers and sellers producing custom name-and-number jerseys on demand. Esports jersey mockups have become a growing subcategory as competitive gaming teams invest in branded team uniforms that match the production quality of traditional sports gear.

What sports are covered?

Soccer/football, basketball, cycling, baseball, hockey, and esports jerseys. Each sport's template reflects its specific construction - collar style, sleeve type, fabric material, and number placement conventions.

Can I add player names and numbers?

Separate smart objects are positioned for front number, back number, back nameplate, and sleeve numbers. Placement follows each sport's standard conventions - soccer numbers centered on back, basketball numbers on both chest and back.

How detailed is the color editing?

Primary body, sleeves, collar trim, shoulder stripes, side panels, and underarm mesh each have independent color layers. This supports complex multi-color team designs and away/alternate jersey variants from the same template.
