Choosing the Perfect Material for Your Custom Jerseys
When ordering custom sports uniforms, the design and colors often get the most attention. However, the fabric you choose is arguably the most important factor in how the uniform will perform on the field or ice. Here is a guide to helping you choose the right custom jersey material for your team.
The Shift Away from Cotton
In the past, cotton was a common choice for sports apparel. However, cotton absorbs sweat and holds onto moisture, making the garment heavy, uncomfortable, and slow to dry. Modern sports teams should always avoid cotton blends for game-day uniforms.
The Power of Polyester and Synthetic Blends
Today's elite uniforms are made from advanced polyester and synthetic blends. These materials offer several crucial benefits:
Moisture-Wicking: The fabric pulls sweat away from the skin to the surface of the jersey, where it evaporates quickly.
Breathability: Synthetic meshes allow for excellent airflow, regulating the player's body temperature.
Durability: Polyester blends are incredibly strong and resistant to tearing, making them ideal for contact sports.
Why Sublimated Fabrics are Superior
The printing method also affects the fabric's performance. Screen printing adds a heavy layer of rubbery ink on top of the material, which blocks airflow and makes the jersey stiff. Sublimated jerseys use a process where the ink becomes part of the fabric itself. This ensures the uniform retains 100% of its breathability and moisture-wicking properties, while the design remains vibrant and crack-free.
