Aurora, IL Baseball Uniforms From STL Shirt Co.: What is Sublimation?

We bank on sublimated logos and designs on our baseball uniforms that won’t fade, peel, or crack on breathable, flexible, and moisture-wicking material. No matter the Aurora, IL temperature or conditions. Sublimation printing, also called “all over printing” as it allows you to utilize a design or logo that goes from seam to seam, uses heat to basically bring ink and fabric together as one. Initially in Aurora, IL, your design or logo is printed on our special paper. The inks coalesce with the fabric, after being heated and turning into gas. The high temperature uncovers the pores of the fabric and then, with the activated pressure, the ink cools and returns to a solid state. The sublimation procedure is often compared to a tattoo, clearly substituting baseball uniforms for your skin.

This technique is ideal for our custom baseball uniforms in Aurora, IL, which are lighter and softer than some competitors’ jerseys, because the fabric remains smooth due to the printing melding with the fabric, contrary to feeling the dried, prickly ink on your skin on “those other jerseys”. There’s not much worse than standing in the dusty outfield with the sun barraging you amidst a Aurora, IL summer scorcher, replete with a 113 heat index, only to feel the displeasure of your uniform numbers sticking to your skin. That’s embarrassing, especially seeing as baseball uniforms cost money. Hopefully, those inquisitive eyes of your special fan didn’t see that.

You and your Aurora, IL team, not to mention your front-and-center, devoted fan(s), warrant far better. Give us a call today at 636-926-2777 or contact us online.

Aurora, IL Baseball Uniforms: A Brief History

Oh, how far baseball uniforms have come. When they first started, back in 1849, baseball uniforms were made of wool pants, white flannel shirts, and straw hats. Seems great for one of those Aurora, IL sizzling summer days, right? By 1882, uniforms were based on position instead of team. Each first baseman, for example, wore the same scarlet-and-white-striped shirt and bowtie, no matter which side of the field they were on. This idea didn’t sit too well, lasting only a season prior to being referred to as clown costumes and getting ditched.

In 1929, numbers were sewn on the back of major league baseball uniforms. It took 20-plus years for the digits to be added to the front, too. Batting helmets weren’t introduced until 1939, but were not required for several decades. Wool uniforms and caps, or at least wool blends, were utilized until 2007. Along the way, there were many alterations and adaptations. The Philadelphia Phillies rocked zippers on their jerseys in 1979. The Chicago White Sox, at the decree of quirky owner Bill Veeck, wore Bermuda shorts back in 1976. And the list goes on. And on.
