Our Favorite Soccer Costumes

Halloween is right around the corner, and if you’re a soccer fanatic, this is the time to celebrate the sport you love. Yes, you could just dress up like a traditional soccer player or referee, but you could also get creative with some less generic costumes that really stand out.

Here are some of our favorite soccer-themed Halloween costumes at BGM: 

Your Favorite Current Player

First up is dressing up as your favorite player. It’s the perfect excuse to get your parents to get you that new jersey you were eyeing.

FIFA Referee

Because really: who doesn’t want to give out  red cards all day? As a bonus, the all-black official uniform of an EPL ref is iconic. It’s super simple to put together. You can either purchase each component separately on Amazon - the black t-shirt with the Premier League logo, black Nike shorts and a hands-free microphone - or, you could literally just print out the official 2024 Fifa Referee and Premier League logos, and stick them on a regular black shirt! Or you can add a real ref kit to your collection from eBay.

Ted Lasso

Jason Sudeikis’s Ted Lasso is an easy costume that will get a lot of laughs. Ted is known for his signature mustache, so that’s step one for this costume. In terms of clothing, all you need is a navy blue sweater over a white or blue button-down shirt and khaki pants.  Finally, print out the logo of Richmond AFC - the fictional team Ted coaches - paste it on your sweater, and boom: you’re the most famous soccer coach in the TV universe.

Soccer Legend of Your Choice

Soccer fans love paying tribute to their favorite athletes. Halloween gives you the chance to dress up just like them and buy that iconic jersey you’ve always wanted. Whether your favorite legend is Pele, Ronaldo, Beckham, or Maradona, research the jerseys they’ve worn throughout their careers and pick the most stylish option. Though the jersey is the most important ingredient, you can go the extra mile by copying your hero’s look to the tee: we’re talking same-color shorts, cleats, and even a matching hairstyle!
