How it works
A Simple, Transparent Process Built for Football Fans
At The Retro Kits UK, we believe buying a football shirt should be exciting, easy, and completely stress‑free.
That’s why we’ve built a clear, honest process from start to finish - so you always know exactly what to expect.
Whether you’re picking up a retro classic, a modern release, or a rare special edition, here’s how everything works behind the scenes.
1. You Choose Your Kit
Browse our collections and pick the shirt that speaks to you - whether it’s:
- A 90s icon
- A Champions League classic
- A modern release
- A special edition worn in a derby
- A kids’ kit for the next generation
Every product page includes detailed descriptions, sizing guidance, and high‑quality images so you can shop with confidence.
(Feel free to DM us on Instagram if you need any further assistance)
2. We Source & Verify Quality (Up to 3 Weeks)
Once you place your order, our team begins sourcing your shirt from our trusted network of suppliers.
This process includes:
- locating the exact shirt you ordered
- verifying quality
- completing any printing
- packaging and dispatch
From order to delivery, the full process typically takes up to 3 weeks.
We prefer to give a realistic timeframe rather than overpromise - and our customers appreciate the honesty. We don't just ship out anything.

3. If a Shirt Is Unavailable - We Tell You Within 3 Days
On rare occasions, a specific size or edition may be unavailable.
If that happens, we won’t leave you waiting.
Within 3 days of your order, we will contact you to:
- offer an alternative size or version
- provide an estimated restock date
- or issue a full refund - whichever you prefer
No delays. No excuses. No surprises. Just honest and transparent.
4. Custom Printing (Optional)
If you choose Name & Number printing, your shirt is handled by our specialist printing team. You will need to Email us this or Dm us on Instagram.
We use:
- High‑quality heat‑applied materials
- Accurate fonts and styles
- Careful alignment
- Heat‑pressing for durability
Every printed shirt is checked twice before packaging.
5. Secure Packaging
Your shirt is then packed securely by the inhouse team to ensure it arrives in perfect condition.
We use:
- Protective packaging
- Moisture‑resistant materials
- Neat folding for a premium unboxing experience
We treat every order like a gift - because for us, it is.
