Ted Lasso has been a sensation that is currently attracting awards and plaudits like moths to a flame, so it’s perhaps no surprise that it recently received the honour of being the subject of a Kit of the Week (KOTW) stage.
AFC Richmond - the fictional club that the eponymous Lasso coaches - is surely our second favourite London side nicknamed “The Greyhounds”, after the previously thought inimitable Streatham Rovers, and is therefore well-deserving of the concept treatment from the superb designers we’re proud to call members. Indeed, even the legendary Drake Ramberg has since offered up a fantasy creation for Apple TV’s fantasy creation.
While some entries, such as those by Silky Smooth and Skyebaggie, went down the graphic sublimation route, and we can’t imagine a more AFC Richmond - nor more VeraniSports - Away shirt than TRIDENTE’s, ONI’s understated and polo shirt-styled upload earned its top billing. A shirt befitting the English capital’s latest imagination captors.
There have now been several episodes in the Kit of the Day serial since Lasso’s Greyhounds took centre stage so we recommend having a browse to take it all in. And, of course, please be sure to enter the current contest if it appeals.
