Kitline is a calm way to design a custom team kit in about ten minutes. Pick a sport, choose your colors, and drag to rotate the strip front to back so you can see the nameplate, the number and the sleeve stripe from every angle. - Build the whole uniform, not just the shirt, with shorts, socks and a helmet where the sport calls for one - Type any name and any number from 1 to 99 - Generate a fictional team name on device, no internet required - Import a logo from your photos and remove its background right on your device - Choose a base color, a stripe style and a crest, then preview it live - Export a transparent PNG, an on-card PNG or a vector PDF at full resolution Made for parents putting a name on a birthday gift, amateur and youth-league organizers picturing a kit before paying a print shop, and fans dreaming up their own club. Works on both iPhone and iPad, fully offline.
