What's the story?
A British designer known as Zayn, put together a vintage-inspired beauty in making a concept kit for Moroka Swallows.
The designer shared the work on his heavily-followed TikTok page, Zayn's Jersey Co. where he's built a solid South African football following and posted designs of other big clubs from Mzansi.

Let's take a closer look...
Swallows concept kit
A good chunk of concept kit designers opt for a more modern aesthetic when putting together their own version of a team's jersey.
Zayn's Swallows concept design sees him take some inspiration from football kits of the past, creating an 1980's-style strip for Maswaiswai.
Quite similar to this season's home and away Swallows kits from Drip Sportif and their 2020/21 strips from Umbro, Zayn used outline illustrations of the Swallows bird to emboss the Burgundy base jersey.
The 80's retro element comes with the pinstripes, the white V-neck finishing and white taping on the sleeves. It's design that could easily outdo the Dube Birds' current home jersey.
