Halloween is right around the corner, and if you’re a soccer fanatic then there is no better way to celebrate the season than by donning a soccer-themed Halloween costume.

If you want to explore some out-of-the-box soccer themed Halloween costume ideas, keep scrolling!

1. Crazy Soccer Fan

Show off your crazy team spirit by wearing your favorite team’s gear from head to toe. Deck yourself out in an absurd amount of face paint, team colors, wigs, hats, scarves, jerseys, and wave some flags around like you just don’t care! If you want to pull off this costume, you’re going to have to memorize some of the teams’ best chants and sing them all night long.

2. Lionel Messi - World Cup Champion Edition

Last year we said that dressing up as the GOAT was a great idea, but this time you can make it an updated version since he’s now a World Cup champion. If you want to pay tribute to Messi this year, there’s no better way than by creating an outfit that celebrates his World Cup victory. All you need is his iconic Argentina Kit, and you can carry around a replica of the iconic FIFA World Cup trophy!

3. Soccer Superhero

Combine your love for soccer and the classic superhero costume by creating your own custom soccer superhero. Design a superhero costume with a cape, mask, and a soccer emblem to wear on your chest of a soccer ball, your favorite club crest, or your own unique symbol. You can customize your superhero’s outfit to coordinate with your favorite club’s colors, themed to a player, or whatever you see fit!

4. Goalie

Most people immediately think of dressing up as a soccer player that’s in the outfield, but rarely do you see someone dress up as the goalie. This Halloween, give the goalies the recognition they deserve and represent them this Halloween. If you want to pull off this costume, you’ll need a goalkeeper jersey, padded shorts, soccer socks, goalkeeper gloves, and a soccer ball.

5. Soccer Legend

Pay tribute to your soccer hero by dressing up as them. Whether it’s Pele, Maradona, Ronaldo, or Beckham, research their signature style and mimic their famous looks. This could be how they look on the pitch, or in their everyday lives. Don their hairstyle, jersey, and their goal celebrations to pull off this costume idea!

6. Soccer Club Mascot

Many soccer clubs have their own distinctive mascots that are loved by fans. Research your favorite club’s mascot and recreate their costume. Moonchester, Mighty Red, Stamford the Lion, or the Gunnersaurus are all fun mascot ideas that you could customize for yourself.
