Football clubs are experimenting with different colors and sources of inspiration when it comes to kit design. Partick Thistle's kit design is based on the mascot, Kingsley.

The club's new design is now available at a Glasgow sports store.

You want to know what is supposed to be. Well, that's up to interpretation, but for the mascot's creator, it's the angst of being a football fan.

The bright yellow mascot is an unforgettable sight, with fans either loving it or hiding behind the couch. The new jersey, which looks normal until you get about halfway down, requires some defense.

☀️ It's OFFICIAL!

Our friends @GreavesSports and @ONeills1918 will produce a run of Kingsley kits, including children's sizes, for sale later this year.

The skipper @RossDocherty1 loves wearing his - you'll be able to purchase yours soon.

The official account for Kingsley replied to a person who asked if the jersey was good.

Indeed pal 👍

If Partick Thistle wore this jersey during a match, the plaid patterned shorts and distinct shirt design could inspire some aggressive play.

They might be the first team to wear their own mascot and give their brand more emphasis on and off the pitch.

I don't know know who needs to know this but Partick Thistle just released their new kit and it's inspired by their mascot named Kingsley and now I'm adding the club to the list of 56 clubs that I officially support because the kit is absolute fire. ☀️ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 pic.twitter.com/a5SbIIPQRz
