A baseball uniform has a harder job than most sportswear: nine innings in summer sun, slides into red dirt, and a look that has carried a century of tradition. This complete guide covers the whole team system, from button-front jerseys and sliding-grade pants to caps, training tees and even the team bags, plus fabric, design and the ordering process for Australian clubs from tee-ball to state league.
Tell us what you need and your price comes back in writing within 2 business hours. Design is free once you order, and we make your order in 3 to 4 weeks from design approval.
Rated 5.0 on Google, with more than 50,000 garments delivered to Australian teams over more than ten years.
Every order is covered by our 100% Remake Guarantee: if what we make doesn't match the design you approved, we remake it.
Baseball competitions keep uniform expectations that are easy to satisfy when the uniforms are designed for them, and expensive to retrofit when it is not.
Once you order, our designers build these constraints into the first mock-up instead of discovering them after printing, and the design is free with your order. If your association has a written uniform policy, send it through with your enquiry and we will design to it directly.
Worth flagging early too: if your club fields both baseball and softball sides, or juniors playing under a regional association banner, confirm whose uniform policy wins before the design starts. Ten minutes of committee clarity up front beats redesigning a jersey the week before the season.
The slug of this page promises a complete team guide, so here is the entire wardrobe a serious club runs, and what each piece needs to do.
Custom baseball jerseys come in full or partial button-front styles with reinforced plackets, professional collar designs in matching or contrast colours, and raglan or set-in sleeves chosen around throwing motion. Names, numbers and sponsors print within the sublimated design.
Sliding-grade polyester pants take the friction of steals and dives, with athletic fits and elastic or drawstring waistbands. For social and summer formats, baseball shorts carry the same sublimated side panels and reinforced stitching in a cooler cut.
Long sleeve tees cover cool evening games, autumn play and layering under jerseys, while short sleeve tees handle warm-ups and practice, both in moisture-wicking fabric with full customisation, and both ordered alongside the playing uniform to reach the minimum order quantity of 20.
Baseball sets bundle jersey and pants under one coordinated design, which keeps colour matching perfect and ordering simple for volunteers.
Dressing a whole roster? Ask for set pricing instead of pricing piece by piece; the bundle maths favours the club.
Baseball is a summer sport of long stretches standing in the heat, broken by sudden sprints and slides. That brief rules out cotton.
Breathable cool-dry mesh wicks sweat through long innings in the field, keeping shirts light instead of letting them soak heavy the way cotton does by the fourth inning.
Playing pants use sliding-grade polyester that shrugs off friction from steals, dives and hard landings, the exact moments cheaper pants give way.
Playing pants carry reinforced stitching at the stress points that sliding punishes, which is where any parent who has scrubbed white pants on a Sunday night knows the wear starts.
Mechanical stretch keeps a full range of movement through swings, throws and fielding, so the jersey moves with the player instead of pulling at the shoulders.
Plenty of Australian clubs still play in hand-me-down cotton uniforms. Here is the honest comparison committees ask for.
| Consideration | Traditional cotton | Performance polyester |
|---|---|---|
| Sweat handling | Absorbs and holds moisture | Wicks it to the surface to evaporate |
| Weight when wet | Noticeably heavier | Stays close to dry weight |
| Drying speed | Slow between innings | Quick-dry through a game day |
| Colour life | Fades with washing | Sublimated colour won't crack, peel or fade |
| Custom design | Limited to applied prints | Unlimited colours, pinstripes and gradients |
The one thing cotton had left, the classic look, sublimation now reproduces with pinstripes and heritage styling on modern fabric. A club can keep a fifty-year-old visual identity and still hand players a shirt that breathes, dries fast and holds its colour. Wondering how your traditional design will look? Call 1800 845 056 and ask to see examples of heritage uniforms rebuilt on performance fabric.
Baseball owns the strongest visual tradition in sport, and sublimation is the first technology that can honour it and break it in the same order.
Because sublimation dyes the fibre itself, designs never crack or peel, printed areas feel identical to unprinted fabric, and colour count is unlimited. That covers everything from classic pinstripes and heritage scripts to photorealistic elements, geometric panels and smooth gradient fades. Player names, numbers and sponsor logos sit inside the print at no extra cost per addition.
Colour matching runs on Pantone references, samples or photos of existing uniforms, and every shade is checked against our physical Pantone book before printing, since screens show colour differently. Have a design brewing? Start the quote and attach anything from a sketch to last season's photos.
No sport is more defined by its cap. And no travelling squad regrets matching bags.
Fitted, snapback and visor styles all customise to club colours, with embroidered crests or sublimated panels, adjustable junior and adult sizing, and mixed closure styles within one order. Visors suit coaches and base coaches who want a peak without a crown.
Then there are the bags that carry it all. Custom backpacks and duffle bags in club colours turn a car park full of players into a travelling club, and they double as the most practical presentation gift a committee can hand out at the end of a season.
Australian baseball's twilight and night fixtures turn warm days into cold dugouts fast. Club hoodies and puffer layers keep pitchers' arms warm between innings and give the scorers' table a reason to smile, while supporter versions of the same hoodie sell to parents on the hill from the club's merchandise table. The full winter story lives in our custom jackets and hoodies guide.

Australian baseball clubs skew young, and junior programs live or die on uniforms that fit this season and can be matched next season.
Youth and adult sizing runs across the entire baseball range, with mixed sizes freely combined in one order, so the under-12s and the firsts wear the same design in their own cuts. Detailed size charts arrive with every quote, and measuring against a shirt that currently fits beats guessing every time.
For juniors specifically: order with growth in mind early in the season, keep a small buffer of common sizes for mid-season arrivals, and stick with one master design year over year. Because your artwork and production files stay on record, January's new registrations can be kitted to match March's originals exactly.
Tee-ball deserves one extra thought: the youngest players wear their jerseys as much off the diamond as on it, so a comfortable relaxed cut and a design the kids really like does more for retention than any recruitment flyer the club will ever print.
Tournament baseball compresses a season's wear into a weekend: multiple games a day, no time to wash, and dew-soaked evening fixtures. Squads that pack one spare jersey in a common size, a spare cap or two and a dry training tee per player get through carnivals without the Sunday scramble. Quick-dry fabric earns its keep here, turning a lunchtime rinse into a wearable shirt by the afternoon game.
Wash-day rules keep the whites white for longer between carnivals: rinse dirt out the same day instead of letting it set, wash cold and inside out, skip fabric softener, and line dry in the shade. The routine does the heavy lifting, and the uniform fronts up to next season looking like it belongs there.
Multi-sport clubs coordinating baseball with softball or other codes should read our custom team uniforms guide for program-level planning. Sizing question mid-spreadsheet? 1800 845 056 answers faster than a committee thread.
Four steps, run by one volunteer, finished before the season sneaks up.
Names, numbers, unlimited sponsor logos and club badges are included at no extra cost, and every order carries our 100% Remake Guarantee: if what we make doesn't match the approved files, we remake it.
The clubs that come in under budget order the essentials as sets, treat tees and caps as the flexible tier, and put sponsor placements to work paying for the lot. Because every logo is included in the print, a well-sold sleeve or back-yoke placement can cover a meaningful slice of the uniform bill before a player pays a cent. Reorders cost less planning than first orders, so the real budgeting question is only ever about season one.
Not ready for a price yet? Ask for a free 15-minute planning session. We'll work out your order-by date from opening day, the easiest way to collect sizes, names and numbers, and the answers your committee will ask for. Because we are factory direct, pricing is typically 30 to 40% below comparable custom teamwear quotes. Larger clubs and associations get a dedicated account manager and volume pricing. Summer sports like baseball usually order between June and August for a season starting in late September or October.
From Gold Coast clubs to social nines, these are delivered orders, not concept art.

The questions that come up at every pre-season meeting, answered without the runaround.
The minimum order quantity is 20 units. Jerseys, pants, tees and caps can combine within the one order, with junior and adult sizes mixed freely, and top-ups for new players later can be smaller than 20.
Yes. Full and partial button-front styles are core to the VS Wear baseball range, with reinforced plackets and professional collar options, plus a choice of sleeve constructions built around throwing motion. The traditional look prints over modern moisture-wicking fabric.
Manufacturing takes 3 to 4 weeks from design approval, with design rounds and sizing collection in front of that. Clubs ordering about 8 weeks before opening day have margin to spare; if a date is tight, ask about a rush order early by phone.
Yes. Individual player names, numbers, unlimited sponsor logos and club badges are all part of the sublimated print at no extra cost. You supply a spreadsheet of sizes, names and numbers, and every jersey arrives individualised.
VS Wear playing pants use sliding-grade polyester with reinforced stitching at the stress points sliding punishes. No pant makes dirt vanish, so rinse it out the same day and wash cold, but these are built for exactly that abuse.
Yes, and it is the efficient way to do it: one design language across a light and a dark base, produced in the same run, so contrast requirements are covered and both uniforms match the caps. Combined orders also share the design and sizing process once.
Yes. Custom caps come in fitted, snapback and visor styles with embroidered or sublimated club branding, and custom backpacks and duffle bags complete the travel set. Gold Coast Baseball's backpacks and duffles in this guide are recent examples.
Youth through adult sizing spans the whole range, and mixed sizes combine in one order, so tee-ball squads and senior sides can share a design. Every quote includes detailed size charts to measure against existing shirts.
Yes. Colour matching works from Pantone codes, physical samples or clear photos of current uniforms, and an existing design can be recreated or refreshed within the sublimated print. New garments then match the caps and uniforms the club already owns.
Your approved artwork and production files stay on record at VS Wear, so top-ups print identical to the original run. Most clubs place a small reorder after summer registrations without touching the design again.
Our 100% Remake Guarantee applies to every order: anything that doesn't match your approved artwork or production files is remade free. The approval mock-up is the benchmark, which is why sponsor spelling and number lists get confirmed before production.
