Jerseys 101: Fit, Fabric, and Personalization
Fit types
- Classic (regular): Straight through chest and waist; layer over a base tee.
- Athletic (slim): Slightly tapered; best if you prefer a trimmer look.
- Fan (relaxed): Extra room for hoodies underneath; game‑day comfort.
Sizing tips
- If you layer hoodies/sweats under your jersey, consider sizing up one.
- Check your chest measurement with a soft tape: wrap under arms at the widest point. Compare to our size chart on each product page.
- Between sizes? Choose the larger for a looser, stadium‑friendly fit.
Fabric & build
- Poly performance mesh: Lightweight, moisture‑wicking, quick‑dry.
- Twill/appliqué numbers: Textured, premium look.
- Printed name/number: Lighter and flexible; ideal for casual wear.
Personalization
- Add your name & number at checkout (where available) for a custom jersey that’s uniquely yours. Great for gifts and fan groups.
Graphic Tees: What Makes a Great Game‑Day Shirt
Fabrics
- 100% Cotton (midweight 5.3–6.1 oz): Classic hand‑feel; gets softer with each wash.
- Cotton‑Poly Blend (4.2–4.5 oz): Softer drape, less shrinkage, holds print vibrancy.
- Performance Poly: Light, breathable, fastest to dry.
Print methods
- DTG (Direct‑to‑Garment): Rich detail for complex graphics.
- Screen print: Crisp solids and long‑lasting color.
- Dye‑sublimation (poly tees): All‑over prints; never cracks or peels.
How to pick
- For bold logos or text: screen print.
- For photo‑real or vintage fades: DTG.
- For seamless, edge‑to‑edge patterns on poly: sublimation.
Weather Playbook: Layering for Every Forecast
Hot early season (August–September)
- Performance tee or mesh jersey + lightweight cap; sunscreen and sunglasses.
Crisp fall (October–November)
- Tee + flannel or mid‑weight hoodie + windproof shell; cuffed beanie.
Cold postseason (December–January)
- Thermal base layer + heavyweight hoodie + insulated parka; tech gloves; wool socks.

Outfit Formulas (Men, Women, Unisex)
Men
- Mesh jersey + long‑sleeve base tee + athletic chinos + retro runners.
- Heavy tee + varsity jacket + dark denim + low boots.
Women

- Longline hoodie dress + bike shorts + dad cap + crew socks.
Unisex
- Oversize graphic tee + relaxed cargo pants + canvas sneakers.

Pro tip: Keep colors team‑forward—anchor with neutrals (black/grey/denim) so the jersey/tee pops.
Accessories That Win the Day
- Hats & beanies: Shade or warmth with instant team identity.
- Scarves: Double as cold‑weather gear and photo‑friendly banners.
- Clear stadium‑approved bags: Check your venue’s size limits.

Care Tips: Keep Colors Bright All Season
- Turn garments inside out before washing.
- Cold wash, gentle cycle; mild detergent; avoid bleach.
- Tumble dry low or line dry to protect prints.
- Skip fabric softeners on performance fabrics (they block wicking).
- Cool iron on reverse; do not iron directly on prints.
