CUSTOM KITS
YOUR OWN CLUB SHOP
We know how time-consuming and stressful it is to organise a kit order for your club. That’s why after you have placed an initial order with Icarus, we can create a dedicated Club Shop where friends, families and teammates can order previously manufactured products and custom teamwear on demand.
This service is free and the Club Shop can include all previously ordered kits and stock teamwear products.
Unlike most sportswear brands that change template designs every few years, Icarus will keep your kit designs on file forever. That means you will always be able to re-order previously made custom designs.
If you would like to create a Club Shop for a newly designed item that you have not ordered before, please enquire with your Icarus designer.

Measurements in inches have been rounded to one decimal place. For more precise measurements, please note our measurements in centimeters.
Shirt measurements are for a standard crewneck jersey with regular sleeves. Jerseys with raglan sleeves and polo collars will differ slightly due to the way the shirts are cut, but they fit similarly.
Please note that the below chest measurements correspond to just the front of the chest rather than the entire circumference (as you may see elsewhere).
OUR PROCESS
1
CLICK & SUBMIT
5 MINUTES
To begin, visit our website and click ‘Fill out a design form to start designing’ to fill out our short intake form. It's designed to let us learn more about your club and how you'd like your kit to look. It also lets you upload any necessary images like crests and sponsors.
You’re welcome to fill in this form in as much or as little detail as you’d like, but the more information we have, the quicker we’ll be able to create a set of designs that you really love.
After submitting our intake form, you will be directed to create an account on our Design Portal. This is an instant messenger account where you'll correspond with our design team directly and place your order.

RESEARCH & DESIGN
1-4 BUSINESS DAYS
After receiving your design form, the Icarus team will then conduct our own research into your club and begin work on your concepts. Within 4 business days, we’ll send you an initial set of concept designs based on your ideas.
If there’s a design that you love already, that’s brilliant. But equally, if you’re not into them, that’s no problem at all. You can request as many alterations to the designs that you’d like to see—or even a set of totally new designs—in up to 4 free design rounds
Please note that the design process may take longer depending on the number of requested edits. Edits generally takes 1-2 business days.

PRODUCTION
6 WEEKS (+/- 1 Week)
Once we’ve settled upon a set of designs that you love, all you have to do is send us a spreadsheet with your order information (i.e. sizes, names & numbers where relevant).
We’ll then send over your invoice and begin production as soon as we receive payment. You’ll receive email updates at the following points:
• Production begins
• Fabric is printed for cutting and sewing. You will receive a more accurate estimated shipping date soon after this point.
• 7 days before the estimated shipping date

DELIVERY
2-7 BUSINESS DAYS
Your order will ship from our Philadelphia or London office depending on your location. Shipping costs vary by location and weight, but we cap our shipping charge at £100 for domestic UK team orders.
You will receive an email as soon as your order has shipped with tracking information. If you have any special delivery requests (e.g. signature upon delivery, overnight shipping), please contact help@icarusfc.com.

DO YOU CHARGE FOR DESIGN WORK?
Design work is already included in our pricing. When working with an Icarus designer, you can request as many edits or alterations as you’d like in up to 4 free design rounds. A design round is considered to be a collection of edits requested and is noted in the top-left hand corner of your designs.
I ALREADY HAVE A KIT DESIGN. CAN I SEND IT TO ICARUS TO PRODUCE AND DOES THIS IMPACT THE PRICING?
Yes! If you already have a design, our design team can convert it into a print-ready format for production. As there is often still a large amount of design work required for this conversion, our standard pricing would apply. If you intend to send your own design to our design team, please make sure to use CMYK colours and vectorised files and patterns.
WHAT IS THE TURNAROUND TIME?
Turnaround time from payment to dispatch is approximately 6 weeks (+/- 1 week). Orders with embroidery, applique crests and certain collar styles (e.g. polo, insert, and henley) can take up to 2 weeks longer.
WHERE ARE WE LOCATED?
Our main warehouse is based in Philadelphia but we also have a regional office in London. Our manufacturing partners are based out of the United States, Turkey, China and Pakistan. All of our equipment is produced with TUV Rheinland verified suppliers and we have personally visited the factories so we can attest to their safe and ethical work environment.
HOW DO YOU ENSURE THAT FABRIC COLOURS MATCH THE COLOURS IN THE 2D DESIGN RENDERINGS?
Matching fabric colours perfectly with the colours found on a digitally produced design is difficult as screens emit light whereas fabric absorbs light. This means that there will always be slight, barely noticeable variation. Producing a perfect colour match between different fabrics (i.e. shirts & socks) is also difficult as the dye will change the colour of these fabrics in slightly different ways.
At Icarus, we use CMYK colours in our digital designs to minimise any variation between our designs and the final product. We then sublimate our apparel using the CMYK colour codes as a guide and adopt a rigorous proofing process to ensure that the fabric colours match the designs as closely as possible.
As with all custom apparel, slight variation between the colour of a digitally produced design and the final fabric is possible. If your job is extremely colour sensitive, please speak with your Icarus representative.
