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

We count on sublimated designs and logos on our baseball uniforms that will never crack, peel, or fade on flexible, breathable, and moisture-wicking material. No matter the McAllen, TX weather or environmental situations. Sublimation printing, also called “all over printing” as it allows you to utilize a design or logo that spans from seam to seam, uses heat to basically bring fabric and ink together as one. To start in McAllen, TX, your logo or design is printed on our special paper. The inks coalesce with the fabric, after being heated and turning into gas. The high temperature uncovers the pores of the fabric and then, with the activated pressure, the ink cools and returns to a solid form. The sublimation procedure is akin to a tattoo, obviously substituting baseball jerseys for your skin.

This method is ideal for our custom baseball uniforms in McAllen, TX, which are lighter and more comfortable than some competitors’ jerseys, because the fabric remains smooth due to the printing melding with the fabric, as opposed to feeling the dried, thorny ink on your skin on those competitors’ jerseys. There’s nothing worse than standing out in the field with the sun barraging you amidst a McAllen, TX summer scorcher, replete with a 113 heat index, only to feel the displeasure of ink melting to your skin. That’s embarrassing, particularly seeing as baseball uniforms are costly. Hopefully, those curious eyes of your special fan didn’t see that.

You and your McAllen, TX squad, as well as your easily-seen, dedicated fan(s), warrant far better. Give us a call now at 636-926-2777 or contact us online.

McAllen, TX Baseball Uniforms: A Brief History

Oh, how far baseball uniforms have come. When they first began, back in 1849, baseball uniforms were made of wool pants, white flannel shirts, and straw hats. Seems great for one of those McAllen, TX hot summer days, eh? 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 side of the field they were on. This idea didn’t sit too well, surviving only a season prior to being called clown costumes and being ditched.

In the late 1920s, numbers were sewn on 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, and were not required for several decades. Wool caps and uniforms, or at least wool blends, were utilized until 2007. There were many alterations and adaptations along the way. The Chicago White Sox, at the behest of unique owner Bill Veeck, donned Bermuda shorts in 1976. The Philadelphia Phillies rocked zippers on their jerseys in 1979. And the list goes on. And on.
