Bridgeport, CT Baseball Uniforms From STL Shirt Co.: What is Sublimation?

We count on sublimated designs and logos on our baseball uniforms that will never crack, peel, or fade on flexible, breathable, and moisture-wicking material. No matter the Bridgeport, CT temperature or environmental situations. 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 basically combine ink and fabric together as one. To start in Bridgeport, CT, your design or logo is printed on our special paper. The inks coalesce 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 state. The sublimation process is often compared to a tattoo, clearly substituting baseball uniforms for your skin.

This method is perfect for our custom baseball uniforms in Bridgeport, CT, 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 is nothing worse than standing in the dusty outfield with the sun beating down on you amidst a Bridgeport, CT summer scorcher, replete with a 113 heat index, only to feel the displeasure of ink melting to your skin. That’s embarrassing, especially seeing as baseball uniforms are costly. We can hope, for your sake, those inquisitive eyes in the front row didn’t see that.

You and your Bridgeport, CT team, not to mention your front-and-center, dedicated fan(s), deserve far better. Contact us online or give us a call today at 636-926-2777.

Bridgeport, CT 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. Seems great for one of those Bridgeport, CT sizzling summer days, eh? By 1882, uniforms were based on position instead of team. Every first baseman, for instance, 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 just a year prior to being called clown costumes and being tossed.

In 1929, numbers were introduced to the back of major league baseball uniforms. It took 20-plus years for the digits to be put on the front, too. Batting helmets weren’t introduced until 1939, and were not required for several decades. Wool uniforms and caps, 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 quirky 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.
