3D Printing on a Soccer Jersey

October 6, 2025 By Katie Elhardt

The idea came about when our R&D Engineer decided to enroll his daughter into soccer. When they received her uniform, he noticed it had no name or number on the back. The coaches said they could customize the back however they wanted. 

Ding! Light bulb goes off. “No other kid will have a 3D printed jersey,” our Engineer thought. He brought in her jersey and went to work. 

The result? A pink, ombre name and number on the back of the jersey that changes color from right to left. Now she can run up and down the field in unique style.
