VS Wear designs and manufactures custom sports uniforms for the netball, rugby league, rugby union and cricket clubs of Forster, Tuncurry and the Great Lakes, produced factory-direct at 30 to 40% below usual retail pricing and delivered on a guaranteed 3 to 4 week turnaround from design approval.
Forster Netball is already a VS Wear customer club, and the artwork we hold makes every later run match the first. Minimum 20 units per design.
Netball leads because it is where we already have a customer in this town, with both rugby codes and the summer clubs behind it.

This town runs two full seasons at opposite ends of the year, winter for the football codes and netball and summer for the surf club, so there is no month where nothing is about to start.
Production is guaranteed at 3 to 4 weeks from the day you approve the design. Design and approval sit in front of that, and how long they take is up to your committee, not us.
Professional design is free, drawn by our in-house team from your colours, logo and ideas. Once your order is placed, mock-up revisions are unlimited right through to design approval.
The useful consequence is that every club here has a genuinely quiet planning period, it is just not the same one. Order in your own off-season and the whole process happens while your committee has time rather than during the fortnight registrations open.
The dress at the top of this page is a real VS Wear order for Forster Netball, a customer club here rather than a stock photograph. That is the most useful thing a nearby committee can look at, because it is the standard your own order would be produced to.

View the VS Wear GalleryForster recorded 14,187 residents at the 2021 census, across twin towns either side of the entrance to Wallis Lake. The winter half of its sport is substantial: the Forster-Tuncurry Hawks Rugby League Football Club runs a pathway for boys and girls from under-6s through to senior teams, the Forster Tuncurry Rugby Union Football Club plays in the same twin towns, and the Great Lakes Netball Association is a not-for-profit running programs for all ages and abilities from Net Set Go for five to ten year olds through to senior divisions. The summer half is just as substantial, with the Forster-Tuncurry Surf Life Saving Club promoting surf safety, training patrolling members and educating the public.
A town with two big seasons never has a month where nothing is starting. What it does have is a different quiet period for each club, and three things follow from that.
Winter is planning time for a surf club and summer is planning time for a football or netball club, and each is free exactly when the other is flat out. Using that window means design, revisions and approval all happen while the committee has attention to spare.
A club drawing members from Forster and from Tuncurry should run its sizing at both, rather than assuming families will cross the water for a fitting. Two short sessions collect a full list; one long one collects half of it and hides the gap until delivery.
A patrol season and a round one are both fixed, which makes the guaranteed 3 to 4 week window from approval the thing a committee actually plans against. The only variable in the whole schedule is how quickly the design gets signed off. A club still deciding in February is fitting design, approval and the guaranteed 3 to 4 week production window into its busiest registration weeks. Send us your grades and colours.
Production is guaranteed at 3 to 4 weeks from the day you approve the design.
Every order carries our 100% remake guarantee: finished garments that do not match the approved artwork or production files are remade at our cost.
VS Wear sells factory-direct, so the same premium quality lands 30 to 40% below usual retail pricing.
VS Wear is Australian owned and operated, and your order is looked after by our Australian-based team.
The date is the one that matters when a season opens on a fixed weekend and there is no way to move it. A committee that knows production takes 3 to 4 weeks from approval can work backwards with confidence rather than hoping.
The rest is protection against the thing nobody plans for: gear that does not match what was approved. Held artwork and a remake at our cost mean the second order looks like the first, which matters most in a club that reorders a few garments at a time.
Uniforms are designed and produced centrally, then freighted to whichever address your club or school nominates, whether that is a clubhouse, a home ground or a school office.
Send the consignment to whichever side of the bridge your club trains on, then distribute from there, because splitting a delivery between the twin towns doubles the number of things to track for the sake of a five minute drive. We also supply Taree and Kempsey up the coast, and the full list of New South Wales cities we service covers the rest of the state through our New South Wales cities directory.
Committees pricing several grades at once can start with our free custom team uniforms guide, which covers sizing and artwork for multi-team orders.
Run a session in Forster and a session in Tuncurry. Two short collections get a complete list, while one central session quietly misses whoever was not going to make the drive.
VS Wear designs and manufactures fully sublimated custom sports uniforms for clubs, schools, associations and corporate teams: playing kit, training gear, warm-ups and off-field wear across the football codes, netball, basketball, cricket and soccer. Every order is produced factory-direct and shipped Australia-wide.
Through winter, while the football codes are mid-season and your own club is quiet. Ordering in your own off-season is the single easiest scheduling decision available in this town.
It sets the smallest size the artwork has to work on, so tell the designer up front. A badge scaled for a senior division dress will not sit properly on the smallest garment in the run.
Three to four weeks from design approval, guaranteed. The design and revision stage sits in front of that, and how long it takes depends on how quickly your committee signs off the mock-up.
Over summer, while the beach clubs are at their busiest. Design and approval done by January leaves the guaranteed production window clear well before the first round.
The minimum order is 20 units per design. Adult and junior sizes can share the one production run, so a single side with its coaching staff generally clears it.
Whichever side of the bridge your club trains on, in one consignment. Distribution across the twin towns is a short drive and much easier to manage than two deliveries.
No. VS Wear does not have a store or showroom in Forster. Every order is designed and produced centrally, then freighted to the address you nominate, whether that is a clubroom or a school office. That model is what holds pricing 30 to 40% below usual retail, and it means Forster clubs get the same free design service, the same guaranteed 3 to 4 week turnaround and the same Australian-based support as any other order in the country.
All of them, including Tuncurry, Pacific Palms, Nabiac, Hallidays Point and Old Bar, and north to Taree. The pages linked above cover several in detail and the rest are quoted on identical terms.
Whichever half of the year your club plays in, the other half is your planning window. Send your grades and colours then and the production date takes care of itself.
Quick and easy. No payment details, no obligation.
