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

We count on sublimated logos and designs on our baseball uniforms that won’t crack, peel, or fade on flexible, breathable, and moisture-wicking material. Regardless of the Tempe, AZ temperature or conditions. 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 essentially meld ink and fabric together as one. Initially in Tempe, AZ, your design or logo is printed on our special paper. The inks combine with the fabric, after being heated and turning into gas. The heat exposes 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 uniforms for your skin.

This technique is perfect for our custom baseball uniforms in Tempe, AZ, 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, thorny ink on your skin on “those other jerseys”. There’s not much worse than standing in the dusty outfield with the sun grilling you amidst a Tempe, AZ summer scorcher, replete with a 113 heat index, only to feel the discomfort 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 of your special fan didn’t notice that.

You and your Tempe, AZ squad, as well as your conspicuous, devoted fan(s), deserve far better. Contact us online or give us a call today at 636-926-2777.

Tempe, 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. Sounds great for one of those Tempe, AZ hot summer days, eh? By 1882, uniforms were based on position rather than 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 quite take off brilliantly, surviving only a year prior to being referred to as clown costumes and being 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 were not introduced until 1939, but were not required until 1971. Wool uniforms and caps, or at least wool blends, were utilized until 2007. There were many alterations and adaptations along the way. The Chicago White Sox, at the decree 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.
