Mesa, AZ Baseball Uniforms From STL Shirt Co.: What is Sublimation?

We count on sublimated logos and designs on our baseball uniforms that will never crack, peel, or fade on flexible, breathable, and moisture-wicking material. No matter the Mesa, AZ weather or environmental situations. Sublimation printing, also called “all over printing” as it lets you utilize a design or logo that goes from seam to seam, uses heat to essentially meld ink and fabric together as one. To start in Mesa, AZ, your logo or design is printed on our special paper. The inks turn into gas when heated, then combine with the fabric. The heat exposes the pores of the fabric and then, with the activated pressure, the ink cools and returns to a solid state. The sublimation process is often compared to a tattoo, obviously exchanging baseball jerseys for your skin.

This technique is ideal for our custom baseball uniforms in Mesa, AZ, 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, prickly ink on your skin on those competitors’ jerseys. There’s not much worse than standing in the dusty outfield with the sun grilling you amidst a Mesa, AZ summer scorcher, replete with a 113 heat index, only to feel the discomfort of your uniform numbers sticking to your skin. That’s humiliating, particularly seeing as baseball uniforms cost money. We can hope, for your sake, those curious eyes of your special fan didn’t see that.

You and your Mesa, AZ squad, as well as your front-and-center, dedicated fan(s), justify better. Give us a call now at 636-926-2777 or contact us online.

Mesa, AZ 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 ideal for one of those Mesa, AZ hot summer days, right? By 1882, uniforms were based on position instead of team. Each first baseman, for instance, 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 year before being referred to as clown costumes and being tossed.

In 1929, numbers were sewn on the back of major league baseball uniforms. It took another couple of decades for numbers to be added to the front, too. Batting helmets weren’t introduced until 1939, but were not required until 1971. Wool caps and uniforms, 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 instruction of quirky 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.
