Design Custom Sports Team Uniforms
Before you decide that it is time to have uniforms design, there are different things to consider. Firstly, the features of the uniforms. You’ll want to take factors like the climate conditions when players will be in the uniforms, the freedom required for movement, and the need for pockets, logos, badges, name tags, etc.
Once you have decided the different features you’d like for your uniforms, select the fabric types for the uniforms. When choosing the fabric types be sure to consider how well the fabrics
clean and whether they need to be pressed. Cotton or cotton blend materials are breathable and good at retarding moisture, as well as easy to clean. However, typically, they will also require pressing. Polyester blends have a tendency to trap moisture and heat. This fabric type is typically easy to clean and require no or little pressing.
Select the uniform colours and design how you would like the uniforms to look. When designing the uniforms, include placement of buttons, zippers, cuffs, pockets, lapels, and the placement of screen printing or logos. If you lack in the artistic area, consider a drafting program to help design the uniforms.
When it comes to the manufacturing of the uniforms, you will have different choices. A promotional products company like Custom Gear that specialises in uniforms, a garment manufacturing company, or a seamstress. Before placing the order, be sure that you request a prototype of the uniform. Once you have received the prototype, have a team member wear it for the day to critique the uniform before you go forward. Also, wash the uniform to see how the fabric holds up to cleaning. Make any recommendations to the manufacturer when placing your final order.
