  Nobody buys a jersey for the fit. They buy it to feel part of the club.
  Genlook puts the fan inside the kit, on their own photo, right on the product
  page, and turns a scroll through the club shop into a shirt in the cart.

  - football-home-kit--marco
  - football-away-kit--marco
  - football-goalkeeper-kit--marco
  - football-retro-away-shirt--marco

  Fan wear doesn't follow normal fashion logic. Demand spikes around kit launches, derbies, and
  transfer news, then cools until the next moment. The shirt itself is an identity statement first
  and a garment second, which is exactly why static product photography undersells it: a flat
  packshot shows the polyester, not the feeling.

  A try-on flips that. The fan sees themselves in the new home shirt seconds after landing on the
  page, while the launch hype is still doing the marketing for you. It works just as hard on the
  slower sellers: retro reissues, track jackets, and training wear that live in the shadow of the
  matchday kit. And because gift buyers make up a large share of club-shop traffic, showing the
  shirt on a person, instantly, helps the aunt buying for a nephew too. The
  [live demo](https://demo.genlook.app) shows how kits render, and
  [what virtual try-on is](/glossary/virtual-try-on) covers the technology
  behind it.

<Faq label="07 · Football & sport, specifically" title="Asked by clubs and fan stores.">
  <FaqItem question="Does it work with striped and patterned kits?">
    Yes. Stripes, hoops, sashes, and retro patterns are among the strongest cases: the pattern wraps the body without smearing.
  </FaqItem>
  <FaqItem question="Can fans try more than jerseys?">
    Yes. Training wear, track jackets, hoodies, and the rest of the merch rack all work with the same button.
  </FaqItem>
  <FaqItem question="Does it show name and number printing?">
    The try-on renders the shirt as it appears in your product photo. If the photo shows a printed name and number, that is what the fan sees on themselves.
  </FaqItem>
  <FaqItem question="What product photos do I need?">
    The ones you already have: a flat packshot, ghost mannequin, or on-model shot on a clean background.
  </FaqItem>
  <FaqItem question="Are shoppers' photos private?">
    Yes. Photos are encrypted, never used to train models, and deleted automatically after 7 days.
  </FaqItem>
  <FaqItem question="What does it cost?">
    The free plan includes 100 generations, enough to test the current kit range. Paid plans scale with monthly volume, and fans who only browse cost you nothing.
