Explanation of Approval Process
First of all, thank you for using the website, and adding so many new kits and jackets every single day. The archive is becoming bigger and better because of your contributions, and we are only at this point because of you.
With this post, we want to clarify why some of your additions will not appear on the website. In the following passages we will explain every aspect in detail.
Regular on-field kits
Match kits are shirts that were or will be worn in an official match. Please do not add lifestyle items to this segment.
Lifestyle items are jerseys that were not intended to be worn on the pitch. If a football shirt was not worn on the pitch, it will not be approved.
Sometimes, images are too blurry or it is not possible to fully view the front of the shirt on your pictures. If visibility is a problem, we will not approve said shirt.
Pre-Match / Training & Travel
These categories concern a different type of football team equipment worn by either the players or the coaching staff.
Again, we do not want to include lifestyle releases on the website.
Investigating whether an item was really worn by the team takes time, and this is also why the queue will be congested at times, but your entries will be looked at, and approved as soon as possible.
If you want to speed up the approval process of your additions, make sure to include pictures of the players or coaching staff wearing the item in question.
Currently, the framework of the website does not make it possible for you to add trivia for teams, brands and leagues like club badges, old names, sponsor histories, logo histories or team descriptions and much more.
You can email us your contributions in these category groups to footballkitarchive@gmail.com
This post will be updated in the future in the light of new developments, and pinned to the admin control panel to clear up any confusion.
