Fort Wayne, IN Baseball Uniforms From STL Shirt Co.: What is Sublimation?

We rely on sublimated logos and designs on our baseball uniforms that will never fade, peel, or crack on flexible, breathable, and moisture-wicking material. Regardless of the Fort Wayne, IN 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 ink and fabric together as one. Initially in Fort Wayne, IN, your logo or design is printed on our special paper. The inks turn into gas when heated, then combine with the fabric. The heat uncovers the pores of the fabric and then, with the applied pressure, the ink cools and returns to a solid form. The sublimation procedure is often compared to a tattoo, clearly exchanging baseball jerseys for your skin.

This technique is ideal for our custom baseball uniforms in Fort Wayne, IN, 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 competitors’ jerseys. There’s nothing worse than standing out in the field with the sun beating down on you amidst a Fort Wayne, IN summer scorcher, replete with a 113 heat index, only to feel the discomfort of your uniform numbers sticking to your skin. That’s embarrassing, especially due to the fact that baseball uniforms are costly. We can hope, for your sake, those curious eyes in the front row didn’t notice that.

You and your Fort Wayne, IN squad, to say nothing of your easily-seen, devoted fan(s), justify more. Contact us online or give us a call now at 636-926-2777.

Fort Wayne, IN 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. Seems great for one of those Fort Wayne, IN sizzling summer days, right? By 1882, uniforms were based on position instead of team. Each first baseman, for example, donned 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, surviving just a year prior to being referred to as clown costumes and getting tossed.

In 1929, numbers were sewn on the back of major league baseball uniforms. It took another couple of decades for numbers to be put on the front, too. Batting helmets weren’t introduced until 1939, but were not required for several decades. Wool caps and uniforms, or at 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 behest of quirky owner Bill Veeck, donned Bermuda shorts back in 1976. And the list goes on. And on.
