Madison, WI Baseball Uniforms From STL Shirt Co.: What is Sublimation?

We bank on sublimated logos and designs on our baseball uniforms that won’t fade, peel, or crack on breathable, flexible, and moisture-wicking material. No matter the Madison, WI 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 meld fabric and ink together as one. Initially in Madison, WI, your logo or design 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 applied weight, the ink cools and returns to a solid state. 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 Madison, WI, 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, thorny ink on your skin on “those other jerseys”. There is nothing worse than standing out in the field with the sun beating down on you amidst a Madison, WI summer scorcher, replete with a 113 heat index, only to feel the discomfort of ink sticking to your skin. That’s humiliating, 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 see that.

You and your Madison, WI squad, to say nothing of your front-and-center, dedicated fan(s), warrant better. Give us a call today at 636-926-2777 or contact us online.

Madison, WI 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 ideal for one of those Madison, WI hot summer days, eh? 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 season before being referred to as clown costumes and being tossed.

In the late 1920s, 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 weren’t introduced until 1939, but were not required until 1971. Wool uniforms and caps, or at 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 instruction of quirky owner Bill Veeck, wore Bermuda shorts back in 1976. And the list goes on. And on.
