Can i have my own custom design?

At Deploy, we offer two streamlined design pathways to suit your club’s needs, whether you're after speed and simplicity or a totally bespoke look.

Option 1: Templated Designs (No Design Fee)

Our templated design suite is perfect for clubs that want to move fast while still looking elite. With over 1,000+ combinations of:

  • Base designs
  • collar & sleeve variations
  • pre set logo placements
  • Pre set text, personalisation & number placements

…you’ll have your custom look sorted in minutes.

This option is 100% free of design fees and works seamlessly with our industry-leading 15 business day production time. Every template has been pre-tested and optimised to ensure your final garments print perfectly, giving you peace of mind and premium results without the extended time is takes for custom designs.

Option 2: Complete Custom Design

Looking for something one-of-a-kind? We’ve got you covered.

For clubs that want a completely unique design created from scratch, our in-house design team can bring your vision to life. This premium service is priced at $500 + GST per design, per product, and is ideal for clubs wanting something unique.

What are the personalisation options?

Deploy offers smart, streamlined personalisation to ensure your gear looks professional and consistent, while keeping production fast and error-free.

For the Deploy Stride Shorts, you can choose to add:

  • Player Numbers

These will be printed on the left thigh, just above the Deploy logo.

Our design team has tested hundreds of font styles, placements and print settings to ensure the perfect result every time. Because of this:

  • Text size and positions are fixed for optimal print quality.


Less is more. Initials or numbers not only look sharper, but also speed up production and reduce errors.

Can I add a logo to these Shorts?

Yes!

There is space on the right thigh to add your clubs logo. Please ensure your clubs logo is provided in a high resolution file such as: AI, EPS, SVG, PDF or PNG.

Can I make these pants in my clubs colours?

Yes!

These pants are custom sublimated. Meaning they can be printed in any pantone colour.

DEPLOYS COLOUR GUIDE

Colour Matching Note

While Deploy takes great pride in our industry-leading colour matching, we are also honest and realistic. We won’t guarantee a 100% perfect match every time, and here’s why:

Too often, we’ve seen clubs supplied colours from previous manufacturers that don’t actually align with official colour specs, even if they were labelled otherwise. This can create misleading expectations.

That said, our design and production teams use Pantone® references, calibrated print tests and fabric-specific adjustments to ensure your final garments match your intended colours as closely and consistently as possible.

Can you recreate our clubs current design?

Technically, yes, but in most cases, we don’t recommend it.

At Deploy, we’re committed to doing things the right way, both legally and creatively. Here’s why:

1. Copyright & Trademark Laws

If your current jersey design contains artwork or graphics your club does not legally own, we are unable to replicate it. Reproducing copyrighted designs without permission breaches intellectual property laws, and we won’t put your club or ours at risk.

2. You’ve Chosen Deploy for a Reason

When clubs partner with Deploy, they’re choosing more than a uniform, they’re choosing a fresh start, a better process and a stronger look. Our purpose-built teamwear platform is here to help your club evolve, modernise and stand out.

This is your chance to revolutionise your club's visual identity, and our design team will guide you through the process.

Exceptions

In rare cases, if:

  • Your club owns the design rights.
  • No legal conflict exists.
  • The artwork file is provided in a suitable format.

…we may be able to replicate certain elements. Just speak with your Account Manager, and we’ll assess it responsibly.

How many design changes are included?

For clubs who choose our custom design service. You’ll be invited to a 1-on-1 online design session with our team, where we’ll:

The aim is to help you get your designs sorted as quickly as possible without placing any more stress on your volunteer time.

What is the fee to add sponsors logos?

Sponsor logos are an important part of your teamwear, but they can also be one of the biggest causes of design & production delays, especially when logos are low quality, poorly formatted, or changed multiple times.

To streamline the process and maintain our high production standards, Deploy applies a flat fee of $25 per sponsor logo for:

  • Adding new logos
  • editing logos
  • replacing logos

For efficiency, ensure your sponsor provides a print-ready, high-resolution file (AI, EPS, PDF or PNG) that’s already scaled, placed, and integrated to match your design.

What are the small order fees?

For your club’s initial bulk order, your Deploy Account Manager will work closely with you to make the process seamless, stress-free and free of charge.

To maintain the same level of quality and service on smaller follow-up orders, a small order fee of $5 per unit applies for any order under 30 units, per product.

Are fees waived if I order through my club store?

Yes! One of the biggest perks of partnering with Deploy is your access to a dedicated online club store.

Once your initial teamwear order is complete, we’ll load all your approved products into a live, always-on ordering portal, so players, parents, and committee members can purchase what they need anytime, hassle-free.

No small order fees apply when ordering through your club’s store.

It’s the fastest, easiest and most efficient way to top up gear.

Orders go straight to production using your club’s pre-approved designs.
