Providence, RI Baseball Uniforms From STL Shirt Co.: What is Sublimation?

We rely on sublimated logos and designs on our baseball uniforms that won’t fade, peel, or crack on breathable, flexible, and moisture-wicking material. Regardless of the Providence, RI weather 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 bring fabric and ink together as one. Initially in Providence, RI, your logo or design is printed on our special paper. The inks turn into gas when heated, then coalesce with the fabric. The heat opens the pores of the fabric and then, with the activated pressure, the ink cools and returns to a solid form. The sublimation process is akin to a tattoo, obviously exchanging baseball jerseys for your skin.

This method is ideal for our custom baseball uniforms in Providence, RI, 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’s nothing worse than standing out in the field with the sun beating down on you amidst a Providence, RI summer scorcher, replete with a 113 heat index, only to feel the discomfort of your uniform numbers sticking to your skin. That’s embarrassing, especially seeing as baseball uniforms cost money. We can hope, for your sake, those inquisitive eyes in the front row didn’t see that.

You and your Providence, RI squad, as well as your easily-seen, devoted fan(s), warrant better. Give us a call today at 636-926-2777 or contact us online.

Providence, RI 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 great for one of those Providence, RI hot summer days, eh? By 1882, uniforms were based on position instead of team. Each 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 sit too well, surviving only a year prior to being referred to as clown costumes and getting ditched.

In 1929, numbers were introduced to the back of major league baseball uniforms. It took another couple of decades for the digits to be added to the front, too. Batting helmets weren’t introduced until 1939, and were not required for several decades. Wool caps and uniforms, or at least wool blends, were used until 2007. There were many alterations and adaptations along the way. The Philadelphia Phillies rocked zippers on their jerseys in 1979. The Chicago White Sox, at the decree of quirky owner Bill Veeck, wore Bermuda shorts back in 1976. And the list goes on. And on.
