Killeen, TX Baseball Uniforms From STL Shirt Co.: What is Sublimation?

We bank on sublimated designs and logos on our baseball uniforms that won’t fade, peel, or crack on flexible, breathable, and moisture-wicking material. No matter the Killeen, TX temperature or environmental situations. 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 combine fabric and ink together as one. To begin in Killeen, TX, your logo or design is printed on our special paper. The inks turn into gas when heated, then combine with the fabric. The heat opens the pores of the fabric and then, with the applied pressure, the ink cools and returns to a solid state. The sublimation procedure is often compared to a tattoo, obviously substituting baseball jerseys for your skin.

This technique is perfect for our custom baseball uniforms in Killeen, TX, which are lighter and more comfortable than some competitors’ jerseys, because the fabric stays smooth due to the printing melding with the fabric, as opposed 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 Killeen, TX summer scorcher, replete with a 113 heat index, only to feel the displeasure of your uniform numbers melting to your skin. That’s humiliating, particularly due to the fact that baseball uniforms are costly. We can hope, for your sake, those inquisitive eyes of your special fan didn’t notice that.

You and your Killeen, TX squad, to say nothing of your easily-seen, dedicated fan(s), justify far better. Give us a call now at 636-926-2777 or contact us online.

Killeen, TX 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. Sounds ideal for one of those Killeen, TX sizzling summer days, right? By 1882, uniforms were based on position instead of team. Every 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, lasting just a season before being referred to as clown costumes and getting tossed.

In 1929, numbers were sewn on 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, and 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 Chicago White Sox, at the behest of unique owner Bill Veeck, wore Bermuda shorts in 1976. The Philadelphia Phillies rocked zippers on their jerseys in 1979. And the list goes on. And on.
