Zwift hypocrisy: custom jersey edition

Zwift: we are NOT doing custom jerseys for teams.

Totally agree.Told we don’t do kits…then teams get kits.

Giant, Specialized & Canyon are sponsors of Zwift so it’s likely there is something written in a contract somewhere regarding jerseys.

I sponsor them to the tune of ÂŁ13 every month. :smiley:

Ha! I got my Hammer and a year’s worth of subscriptions from Zwift, I’ve surely given them over $1000.

Sponsors pay for jerseys or at least it is part of the deal.
Teams that join the KISS pro racing league get jerseys. It is a necessity.
Zwift clubs have been put on hold for some time now.
You can vote up the forum request to get club jerseys. What group are you part of and how many members are there? (The old standard was 500 members)
Think positive if you really want positive change.
Also, the jersey you show is a Specialized Mixtape, a new women’s apparel line being (paid) advertised by Specialized.
Check ZwiftPower.com to identify ‘jersey unlock’ events.

That’s demonstrably not true. Certain “clubs” (and group rides) have had jerseys added recently. Some that already had jerseys have had them updated.

True. Really annoys me.

7 years later…
What other platforms support DIY jerseys at this point?

Woah. You dig deep to find this one.

Since this is not a Zwift question, I recommend going to a search engine with your question. I found an answer very quickly that way.

Although Zwift doesn’t support DIY kit, support for club kits has changed a lot since 2019. Still, it does usually require building a club that puts on successful events.

it took my club 6 years to get a jersey in game.

If you build a sizeable club and put on successful events in 2026, I don’t think you would have the same experience. I wouldn’t call it really easy because those are not easy tasks, but it is easier than in the past.

We’ve added 65 new kits since February.

There is a Zwifter on FB that can upload custom jerseys. The one he made for himself, of course, was obscene.

Given these are part of the releases and therefore probably go through all the testing, it’s probably someone hacking the graphics on their local computer.

Which would mean nobody else would see it.

I think these are just on their local machine and not on Zwift itself.

Probably right. He seemed to be someone who knew code but I didn’t want to get involved.

PS Does Eric’s no glass roads hack still work? I don’t mind the glass but I have a hard time seeing the gradients of the road. The colors on portal climbs are a huge help. I would love to ride the Alp in portal color scheme or maybe Innsbruck reverse.

I’m not sure but equally I haven’t seen anything to suggest we have removed it!
