Rain delaying the game, players on the bench, and a team that needs to stay dry. The baseball rain jacket is the water-resistant shell built for exactly that. Empire Five Athletics builds these in a lightweight DWR-coated ripstop polyester with taped seams, a full-zip storm flap, and a packable hood, with full-color sublimation across the whole shell so your team identity reads through the worst of the weather.
The baseball rain jacket is the wet-weather shell in our custom baseball range. Where the ultralight windbreaker handles dry wind and the knit batting jacket handles warm-ups, the rain jacket handles rain and wind. Built in a lightweight water-resistant ripstop polyester with a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, taped seams at the shoulders and hood, a full-length zip with an internal storm flap, and a packable hood that rolls into the collar. Full-color sublimation covers the entire shell so the team mark and colorway read through a downpour. It pulls on over the uniform, packs down small for the gear bag, and rounds out the kit in one colorway.
Lightweight water-resistant ripstop polyester with a DWR finish, taped seams at the shoulders and hood, a full-zip storm flap, and a packable hood. Full-color sublimation across the entire shell, with no needle holes to compromise the water resistance.
Fabric: Water-resistant, not submersible-waterproof. The rain jacket is a lightweight DWR-coated ripstop polyester shell that sheds rain, wind, and wet benches. it is built for dugout and travel use in wet weather, not as technical mountaineering gear. Lighter than the dugout jacket and NOT insulated. for cold-weather warmth that is the dugout jacket, for dry wind that is the windbreaker.
Decoration: Sublimation and heat-transfer are the recommended methods because they add no needle holes and keep the water resistance intact. Embroidery needle holes pierce the water-resistant shell and can let water in at the stitch line. we offer embroidery on request with seam-sealing tape behind it, but for full water resistance we recommend sublimation or heat-transfer instead.
Seams: The major water-entry seams at the shoulders and hood are taped and welded, not just stitched, so water does not wick through the needle holes. The full-length coil zipper runs behind an internal storm flap with a chin guard at the top to keep wind and rain out and prevent zipper bite.
Sublimation and heat-transfer lead on a water-resistant shell because they add no needle holes. Embroidery is available on request, but its needle holes can let water in at the stitch line, so we disclose that up front.
The recommended method for a water-resistant shell. Full-color digital designs become part of the polyester so they add no needle holes and the water resistance stays intact. Color-match the team logo and uniform colorway across the whole shell, sleeves and hood included.
Heat-applied numbers, names, and sponsor wordmarks sit on the surface of the shell without piercing it, and screen printing works on the flat front and back panels. Both keep the jacket water-resistant while adding crisp single or multi-color branding.
Available on request for a dimensional crest, but here is the honest trade-off. embroidery needle holes pierce the water-resistant shell and can let water in at the stitch line. We back it with seam-sealing tape when requested, but for full water resistance, sublimation or heat-transfer is the better choice.
Standard ranges for men's, women's, and youth fits. Rain jackets layer over a game jersey. size up one for room to layer or order true-to-size for a trimmer shell. See the note below.
