About
Move Different.
False 9 is a football clothing brand for people who actually play. No club crests, no player names, no shirt you could buy in a stadium shop. Just the parts of the game you'd only clock if you'd been on the pitch.

Where this started
Three players, one argument
We're three high school players who have spent more hours arguing about football than we've spent doing almost anything else. Formations, transfers, whether a false nine is a role or an excuse. The arguments never went anywhere. The clothes did.
Everything we could find to wear was either a replica shirt with someone else's name on the back, or a big-brand tee that mentioned football the way an airport gift shop mentions a city. Nothing that spoke to the game the way we talk about it with each other.
So we made the first one for ourselves. False 9 is what happened after people asked where we got it.
What we make
One idea per shirt
Small drops. One idea per garment, printed clean and single-color, in cuts you'd wear to five-a-side and then keep on afterwards.
Every piece is printed to order, which means we're not sitting on boxes of stock and you're not paying for the ones nobody bought. It also means we can put out a design the week we think of it instead of the season after.
A design either lands with you or it doesn't. We're not going to explain the joke on the product page.

Tell us we're wrong
We'd rather hear that a design missed than hear nothing. If you've got a shout for a drop, a fit question, or a complaint about the sizing, send it over — one of us reads everything.
