Order custom basketball practice pinnies in lightweight 130 GSM polyester mesh built in our Sialkot factory and shipped worldwide. The cheapest scrimmage layer in the basketball catalog. Basic two-color reversible pinnie designed to outfit the entire roster, the practice squad, and drill-day split groups without breaking the budget. Slips on over a t-shirt or compression layer; flips inside-out to switch teams during scrimmage.
The custom basketball practice pinnie is the simplest, lightest, cheapest scrimmage product in your basketball kit. A basic 130 GSM polyester mesh top with two contrasting colors that lets coaches split the roster into shirts-vs-skins teams in seconds. Empire Five Athletics manufactures these pinnies at the practice-tier price specifically so programs can afford to outfit the full roster plus walk-ons, plus a stack of extras for new joiners and replacements across the season. Slips on over a t-shirt or compression base layer; flips inside-out to switch teams during drills and scrimmage.
Lightweight 130 GSM polyester mesh built at the practice-tier price for whole-roster volume buying. Intentionally minimal, intentionally consumable — replace seasonally as needed.
Fabric: The pinnie is INTENTIONALLY minimal. Lighter than the reversible mesh tank, with open sides (typical pinnie pattern, not closed under the arm). Designed to slip on/off over a t-shirt, NOT to be worn alone. Both layers are sheer mesh.
Longevity: Pinnies are "consumable" practice gear. Built at the practice-tier price for affordability across the full roster, designed for seasonal replacement (1–2 seasons of heavy use). For season-after-season longevity, see the structured reversible mesh tank.
Decoration: Decoration restricted to the flat shoulder/chest panel only. The open mesh weave does not hold dense embroidery, and screen print bleeds through. Sublimation handles all decoration cleanly across both sides.
Sublimation handles both sides cleanly across the full mesh body. Embroidery and tackle twill are restricted to the flat shoulder/chest panel only — the open mesh body cannot hold dense embroidery.
Full-color digital designs printed into the polyester mesh on both sides — each face decorated separately at no upcharge. Graphics never crack, peel, or fade through season-long scrimmage.
Dimensional decoration restricted to the flat shoulder or chest panel where the fabric is solid. The open mesh body of the pinnie cannot hold dense embroidery. Generally we steer programs to sublimation for pinnies — the practice-tier price isn't usually paired with premium decoration upcharges.
Flat-color decoration on the solid chest panel only — the open mesh body lets ink bleed through and does not hold a clean print. Sublimation handles the mesh body cleanly; screen print is the alternative for sponsor wordmarks on the chest.
Standard ranges for men's, women's, and youth fits. Pinnies run roomier than fitted jerseys by design — see the note below.
