Berkeley, CA Baseball Uniforms From STL Shirt Co.: What is Sublimation?

We rely on sublimated designs and logos on our baseball uniforms that won’t crack, peel, or fade on breathable, flexible, and moisture-wicking material. Regardless of the Berkeley, CA weather or environmental situations. Sublimation printing, also called “all over printing” as it lets you use a design or logo that spans from seam to seam, uses heat to basically combine fabric and ink together as one. To begin in Berkeley, CA, your design or logo is printed on our special paper. The inks combine with the fabric, after being heated and turning into gas. The heat opens the pores of the fabric and then, with the activated pressure, the ink cools and returns to a solid form. The sublimation procedure is often compared to a tattoo, clearly substituting baseball jerseys for your skin.

This method is ideal for our custom baseball uniforms in Berkeley, CA, which are lighter and more comfortable 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 competitors’ jerseys. There is not much worse than standing in the dusty outfield with the sun grilling you amidst a Berkeley, CA summer scorcher, replete with a 113 heat index, only to feel the discomfort of your uniform numbers melting to your skin. That’s humiliating, particularly seeing as baseball uniforms are costly. We can hope, for your sake, those curious eyes in the front row didn’t notice that.

You and your Berkeley, CA squad, not to mention your easily-seen, dedicated fan(s), justify far better. Contact us online or give us a call today at 636-926-2777.

Berkeley, CA Baseball Uniforms: A Brief History

Oh, how far baseball uniforms have come. When they first began, back in 1849, baseball uniforms were made of wool pants, white flannel shirts, and straw hats. Seems ideal for one of those Berkeley, CA sizzling summer days, eh? By 1882, uniforms were based on position instead of team. Each first baseman, for instance, wore the same scarlet-and-white-striped shirt and bowtie, no matter which team they were on. This idea didn’t quite take off brilliantly, lasting just a season before being referred to as clown costumes and getting ditched.

In 1929, numbers were sewn on the back of major league baseball uniforms. It took another couple of decades for numbers to be added to the front, too. Batting helmets were not introduced until 1939, and were not required until 1971. Wool uniforms and caps, or at the very least wool blends, were used until 2007. There were many alterations and adaptations along the way. The Philadelphia Phillies rocked zippers on their jerseys in 1979. The Chicago White Sox, at the instruction of unique owner Bill Veeck, wore Bermuda shorts back in 1976. And the list goes on. And on.
