The match inscription is a three-line print that goes on your jersey, below the crest: the match, the date and the stadium. It costs $15,000 and is added to the jersey order. That is everything you need to know. The rest of this article is so you can see exactly how it looks, because in a photo you get it in two seconds and explained in words you do not.
This is how it looks on a real jersey
That jersey is Atlético Nacional's and it left our workshop like that. Below the crest, in small centred black lettering, it says on three lines:
- INTER DE BOGOTÁ VS ATL. NACIONAL
- SEPTIEMBRE 16-2026
- ESTADIO EL CAMPÍN
The order is always the same: the match first, then the date, the stadium last. And so is the size: small on purpose. The idea is not for it to compete with the crest, but for whoever comes close to read it and understand that this jersey has a story behind it.
What happens to the inscription over time
It is printed with the same technique as the crest: heat-pressing, that is, heat and pressure, not ink printed on top. That is why it does not peel at the edges or crack after five washes. You wash it like any jersey: inside out, in cold water and no tumble dryer, and that is it.
What you have to send us
Three things, over WhatsApp, when we confirm the order:
- The two teams that played, in the order you want them to appear.
- The date of the match.
- The stadium.
With that we put the design together, send it to you and only print once you say yes. We do not skip that step, because once it is printed there is no going back: if the date was written wrong, it is wrong forever.
Do not confuse it with the squad number
They are two different services, and plenty of people order them together:
- The squad number goes on the back and carries your name and your number. It costs $20,000.
- The match inscription goes at the front, under the crest, and carries the match, the date and the stadium. It costs $15,000.
What people use it for
Almost always for one of these three reasons:
- The match they went to. The first one they took their kid to, the derby they saw at the stadium, the final.
- The match that marked the club. A title, a promotion, a thrashing they still talk about in the neighbourhood.
- The gift. A jersey with the match inscribed on it stops being just another jersey and becomes the one from that day. That is what makes it hard to repeat.
Frequently asked questions
What is a match inscription?
It is a three-line print that goes on the jersey, below the crest: the match (both teams), the date and the stadium. It stays fixed on the garment, using the same heat-pressing technique as the crest, and it is there to mark one particular match you went to or want to remember.
Where is it printed?
At the front, centred just below the team crest, in small black lettering and on three lines. It does not cover the crest or the brand logo: it reads up close, not from a distance.
What information do I have to send?
Three things: the two teams that played, the date of the match and the name of the stadium. You write them to us on WhatsApp when we confirm the order and we send you how it is going to look before printing it.
Is it the same as the squad number with my name and number?
No, they are two different things and they can be ordered together. The squad number goes on the back and carries your name and your number. The match inscription goes at the front, under the crest, and carries the match, the date and the stadium.
How much does it cost and how long does it take?
The inscription costs $15,000 and is added to the jersey order. It does not add days to the delivery time of the jersey you are ordering: it is printed before we ship.
Does it work on any jersey?
It works on any jersey you buy from us. If you already have the jersey at home, write to us on WhatsApp and we will look at your case: it depends on the fabric and on the free space below the crest.
