Thornton, CO 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 breathable, flexible, and moisture-wicking material. No matter the Thornton, CO 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. Initially in Thornton, CO, your design or logo is printed on our special paper. The inks combine with the fabric, after being heated and turning into gas. The high temperature uncovers the pores of the fabric and then, with the applied weight, the ink cools and returns to a solid form. The sublimation procedure is akin to a tattoo, clearly substituting baseball uniforms for your skin.

This method is perfect for our custom baseball uniforms in Thornton, CO, which are lighter and softer than some competitors’ jerseys, because the fabric remains smooth due to the printing melding with the fabric, as opposed to feeling the dried, prickly ink on your skin on “those other jerseys”. There’s not much worse than standing out in the field with the sun beating down on you amidst a Thornton, CO summer scorcher, replete with a 113 heat index, only to feel the displeasure of your uniform numbers sticking to your skin. That’s embarrassing, particularly seeing as baseball uniforms are costly. We can hope, for your sake, those curious eyes in the front row didn’t notice that.

You and your Thornton, CO team, not to mention your easily-seen, devoted fan(s), justify far better. Give us a call now at 636-926-2777 or contact us online.

Thornton, CO Baseball Uniforms: A Brief History

Oh, how far baseball uniforms have come. When they first started, back in 1849, baseball uniforms were made of wool pants, white flannel shirts, and straw hats. Sounds great for one of those Thornton, CO hot summer days, eh? By 1882, uniforms were based on position rather than team. Every first baseman, for example, wore the same scarlet-and-white-striped shirt and bowtie, no matter which side of the field they were on. This idea didn’t quite take off brilliantly, surviving only a season prior to being referred to as clown costumes and getting tossed.

In the late 1920s, numbers were introduced to the back of major league baseball uniforms. It took another couple of decades for numbers to be put on the front, too. Batting helmets weren’t introduced until 1939, but were not required for several decades. Wool caps and uniforms, or at the very least wool blends, were utilized until 2007. There were many alterations and adaptations along the way. The Chicago White Sox, at the instruction of unique 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.
