Chattanooga, TN Baseball Uniforms From STL Shirt Co.: What is Sublimation?

We bank on sublimated designs and logos on our baseball uniforms that will never fade, peel, or crack on flexible, breathable, and moisture-wicking material. Regardless of the Chattanooga, TN weather or environmental situations. Sublimation printing, also called “all over printing” as it lets you use a design or logo that goes from seam to seam, uses heat to basically meld ink and fabric together as one. To start in Chattanooga, TN, your design or logo is printed on our special paper. The inks turn into gas when heated, then coalesce with the fabric. The high temperature uncovers the pores of the fabric and then, with the activated weight, the ink cools and returns to a solid state. The sublimation process is akin to a tattoo, obviously substituting baseball jerseys for your skin.

This technique is ideal for our custom baseball uniforms in Chattanooga, TN, which are lighter and softer than some competitors’ jerseys, because the fabric stays smooth due to the printing melding with the fabric, contrary to feeling the dried, thorny ink on your skin on “those other jerseys”. There’s nothing worse than standing out in the field with the sun grilling you amidst a Chattanooga, TN summer scorcher, replete with a 113 heat index, only to feel the displeasure of ink sticking to your skin. That’s embarrassing, particularly due to the fact that baseball uniforms cost money. We can hope, for your sake, those curious eyes in the front row didn’t notice that.

You and your Chattanooga, TN team, as well as your front-and-center, dedicated fan(s), warrant better. Give us a call now at 636-926-2777 or contact us online.

Chattanooga, TN Baseball Uniforms: A Brief History

Oh, how far baseball uniforms have come. When they were first introduced, back in 1849, baseball uniforms were made of wool pants, white flannel shirts, and straw hats. Sounds great for one of those Chattanooga, TN hot 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 team they were on. This idea didn’t quite take off brilliantly, surviving only a season prior to being referred to as clown costumes and getting ditched.

In the late 1920s, numbers were introduced to the back of major league baseball uniforms. It took 20-plus years for the digits to be put on the front, too. Batting helmets were not introduced until 1939, but were not required until 1971. Wool uniforms and caps, or at the very least wool blends, were used 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 behest of quirky owner Bill Veeck, donned Bermuda shorts back in 1976. And the list goes on. And on.
