How to Approve Colour Across a Three-Bag Team Set

Start with eight confirmed colour directions, then approve how the chosen project colour appears on each selected bag and identity method.

CORE ANSWER

The decision in one paragraph

Royal blue, fluorescent green, red, black, orange, navy, green and pink are confirmed colour directions. They are selection directions, not digital guarantees of production colour. Approve the chosen colour on the selected material and sample, then review crest, name and number contrast on each format.

Start from eight confirmed directions

Use these names to narrow the project. Screen swatches are navigation aids, not physical production standards.

  • Royal blue
  • Fluorescent green
  • Red
  • Black
  • Orange
  • Navy
  • Green
  • Pink

Decide whether the range matches or codes by role

Choose one coordinated base colour or use controlled differences for squads, age groups or staff roles.

If formats differ, map each colour to a product and quantity.

Review identity contrast on every format

Check crest detail, club-name readability and player-number visibility against the actual colour.

The same mark may need different surrounding space on another format.

Move from screen direction to physical approval

Confirm material, colour reference, production route and physical sample.

Record colour approval separately from artwork approval.

Keep the approved reference

Retain the colour reference, material, artwork files and approved sample record. A repeat still needs current availability and commercial confirmation.

Do not turn visual similarity into an automatic batch guarantee.
