Use: A sleeveless layer for core warmth with free arms, for the bench, staff, and travel. It layers over a hoodie or quarter-zip. For full warmth with sleeves, the fleece jacket is the option.
Decoration: The fleece is stable, so embroidery and screen print read crisp and are the recommended methods. Sublimation reads soft on the fleece nap, so it is used only for full-body color.
Fit: Cut to layer over a hoodie or quarter-zip. Order true-to-size, or size up one to layer over warmth.
Embroidery and print read crispest on the fleece and are the recommended methods. sublimation reads soft on the nap, so it is used only for full-body color.
Full-color designs become part of the polyester so graphics never crack, peel, or fade. Used across our performance-poly shorts and pants to color-match the jersey exactly. Cotton-rich fleece is decorated by embroidery or print instead, since sublimation needs a polyester base.
Dimensional sewn-on lettering and crests on the flat hip or thigh panels where the fabric is stable. Stretch zones like waistbands, hems, and compression knits are kept to sublimation, since stitched decoration pops as those areas flex.
Vibrant flat-color decoration on stable panels and cotton-rich fleece. Pricing varies by ink count and is itemized in your quote. A cost-effective route for single-color wordmarks and sponsor logos.
