Sioux Falls, SD Baseball Uniforms From STL Shirt Co.: What is Sublimation?

We bank on sublimated designs and logos on our baseball uniforms that will never fade, peel, or crack on flexible, breathable, and moisture-wicking material. Regardless of the Sioux Falls, SD weather or conditions. 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 essentially combine ink and fabric together as one. Initially in Sioux Falls, SD, 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 process is akin to a tattoo, obviously substituting baseball jerseys for your skin.

This technique is ideal for our custom baseball uniforms in Sioux Falls, SD, which are lighter and more comfortable 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 competitors’ jerseys. There is not much worse than standing out in the field with the sun beating down on you amidst a Sioux Falls, SD summer scorcher, replete with a 113 heat index, only to feel the displeasure of ink melting to your skin. That’s upsetting, particularly seeing as baseball uniforms are costly. Hopefully, those curious eyes in the front row didn’t notice that.

You and your Sioux Falls, SD squad, as well as your easily-seen, devoted fan(s), deserve far better. Contact us online or give us a call today at 636-926-2777.

Sioux Falls, SD 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 great for one of those Sioux Falls, SD 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 just a season before being referred to as clown costumes and getting tossed.

In 1929, numbers were sewn on the back of major league baseball uniforms. It took another couple of decades for the digits to be put on the front, too. Batting helmets were not introduced until 1939, and were not required until 1971. Wool caps and uniforms, or at the very least wool blends, were utilized until 2007. Along the way, there were many alterations and adaptations. The Chicago White Sox, at the behest of quirky owner Bill Veeck, wore Bermuda shorts in 1976. The Philadelphia Phillies rocked zippers on their jerseys in 1979. And the list goes on. And on.
