Peoria, IL Baseball Uniforms From STL Shirt Co.: What is Sublimation?

We bank on sublimated designs and logos on our baseball uniforms that won’t crack, peel, or fade on flexible, breathable, and moisture-wicking material. No matter the Peoria, IL weather or conditions. Sublimation printing, also called “all over printing” as it lets you use a design or logo that goes from seam to seam, uses heat to basically meld fabric and ink together as one. Initially in Peoria, IL, your logo or design is printed on our special paper. The inks turn into gas when heated, then coalesce with the fabric. The heat exposes 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 exchanging baseball uniforms for your skin.

This technique is perfect for our custom baseball uniforms in Peoria, IL, which are lighter and more comfortable than some competitors’ jerseys, because the fabric stays smooth due to the printing melding with the fabric, contrary to feeling the dried, prickly ink on your skin on “those other jerseys”. There’s not much worse than standing in the dusty outfield with the sun beating down on you amidst a Peoria, IL summer scorcher, replete with a 113 heat index, only to feel the displeasure of ink melting to your skin. That’s humiliating, especially seeing as baseball uniforms cost money. We can hope, for your sake, those curious eyes in the front row didn’t notice that.

You and your Peoria, IL team, to say nothing of your front-and-center, devoted fan(s), warrant far better. Contact us online or give us a call today at 636-926-2777.

Peoria, IL 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. Sounds ideal for one of those Peoria, IL sizzling summer days, eh? By 1882, uniforms were based on position instead of team. Every first baseman, for example, wore the same scarlet-and-white-striped shirt and bowtie, no matter which team they were on. This idea didn’t quite take off brilliantly, surviving only a year prior to being called clown costumes and getting ditched.

In the late 1920s, numbers were introduced to the back of major league baseball uniforms. It took 20-plus years for numbers to be added to the front, too. Batting helmets weren’t introduced until 1939, but were not required for several decades. Wool uniforms and caps, or at the very least wool blends, were utilized 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 decree of unique owner Bill Veeck, donned Bermuda shorts back in 1976. And the list goes on. And on.
