Columbia, MO Baseball Uniforms From STL Shirt Co.: What is Sublimation?

We count 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 Columbia, MO temperature or conditions. Sublimation printing, also called “all over printing” as it lets you utilize a design or logo that spans from seam to seam, uses heat to basically meld ink and fabric together as one. Initially in Columbia, MO, your design or logo is printed on our special paper. The inks turn into gas when heated, then coalesce with the fabric. The heat uncovers the pores of the fabric and then, with the activated weight, the ink cools and returns to a solid form. The sublimation procedure is akin to a tattoo, clearly substituting baseball jerseys for your skin.

This method is ideal for our custom baseball uniforms in Columbia, MO, 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 other jerseys”. There’s nothing worse than standing out in the field with the sun barraging you amidst a Columbia, MO summer scorcher, replete with a 113 heat index, only to feel the discomfort of ink melting to your skin. That’s humiliating, especially seeing as baseball uniforms cost money. We can hope, for your sake, those inquisitive eyes of your special fan didn’t see that.

You and your Columbia, MO squad, as well as your easily-seen, devoted fan(s), warrant better. Give us a call today at 636-926-2777 or contact us online.

Columbia, MO 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 Columbia, MO hot summer days, right? By 1882, uniforms were based on position rather than 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 sit too well, lasting just a season prior to being referred to as clown costumes and getting tossed.

In the late 1920s, numbers were introduced to the back of major league baseball uniforms. It took 20-plus years for numbers to be added to the front, too. Batting helmets were not 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 behest of quirky owner Bill Veeck, wore Bermuda shorts back in 1976. And the list goes on. And on.
