Freelance graphic designer Nerea Palacios cleverly turned a series of Nike soccer uniforms into wearable Game of Thrones attire. Palacios designed a personalized soccer uniform for each of the iconic houses on the HBO series as if they were teams perhaps partaking in the FIFA World Cup series.
Each of the houses featured on the popular Game of Thrones series is represented by Palacios in a soccer uniform inspired by the family's sigil. For example, the house Stark soccer uniform comes in a gradient white to gray color scheme with a Direwolf emblem. Other houses featured include house Bolton, house Targaryen, house Lannister and the Night's Watch. While these jerseys are only prototypes, I hope one day Nike catches on and decides to make these fantasy soccer uniforms readily available for purchase.
