Soccer player frozen the half-second before boot meets ball, and youre seeing pure motion. Pose is fully extended sideways. Leg out, arms wide for balance. Behind him a wild orange and yellow paint splash bursts out like the raw energy of the strike, 7.42 inch sports illustration through and through.
Hes got a blue athletic jersey, navy shorts, sketchy hand-drawn linework so the body reads like a real ink illustration not a stiff vector. Football down at his foot is the classic black and white panel ball, fitness magazine cover energy. Colours sit at 8 total, real manageable for a busy design.
Hooped on a fleece training top this stitches up cracking. Last saturday my brother stitched one for his sons under-12 squad and the lads loved it. Best results come on solid darker jerseys, the orange splash punches against navy or black like nothing else.
Densest sections sit in the paint-splash zones, run a tearaway stabiliser if youre on canvas. Use a polyester thread for the orange so the colour stays vivid through wash cycles. Pop a topping on fleece, keeps the satin column from sinking in. Skip metallic thread here, the kick needs solid blocks.
Files include 9 sizes from 3.42 inches across to 7.42 inches. Aint no bog-standard kick design honestly. Splash background gives it real character that the typical athletic decal lacks. Message me direct if anything looks off when you stitch it out.

About the artist
Reyazul Masud Riham, hand-drawing every design on this site
Every design on Re Embroidery is hand-digitized by one person. Each file gets sketched, color-matched, and stitch-tested on real fabric before it earns a place in the shop. No team. No auto-conversion from images. Just slow, deliberate work, sometimes three or four days per design.
That's the joy I work for.
The hard part is finding my designs re-uploaded and resold elsewhere. So when you buy from Re Embroidery, you're paying one real person for the file you're about to download. That matters.
