VS Wear designs and manufactures custom sports uniforms and club apparel for the netball, touch, cricket and soccer teams of Manly and the Northern Beaches, produced factory-direct at 30 to 40% below usual retail pricing and delivered on a guaranteed 3 to 4 week turnaround from design approval.
Clubs here carry more adults than juniors, which changes the size curve and the kind of gear that actually gets worn.
The Northern Beaches runs a very large netball competition, a touch association and the usual summer and winter codes around them.

Production is guaranteed at 3 to 4 weeks from the day you approve the design. We ship Australia-wide, to whichever address you nominate.

Committees with a largely adult membership tend to add a fifth question, which is whether members will actually wear the thing. That is a design question, and it is the reason the mock-up stage matters more here than the price does.
Look at the adult sides in the gallery rather than the junior ones. A club whose members are grown-ups is buying something that has to survive being worn away from the ground, which is a different test entirely.

View the VS Wear GalleryManly Life Saving Club carries 500 senior members against 250 juniors, which is the reverse of the usual community club shape, and there are 21 surf life saving clubs along the coast from here to North Palm Beach. Manly Warringah Netball Association is made up of 17 affiliated clubs and runs competitions for all ages and abilities from John Fisher Park at Curl Curl, while Manly Warringah Touch Association covers the touch competitions. Between them this district has a great many adult members and comparatively fewer juniors.
A club with two adults for every junior will run short exactly where most of its members are if it sizes like a junior club. The middle and upper adult sizes are where the depth belongs, and getting that wrong is the most expensive small mistake on the order.
Grown members pay for their own gear far more readily than junior families do, which makes an order here look more like a club apparel run than a team kit run. Polos, hoodies, jackets and tees do most of the work, and the playing gear is only part of what a club can offer.
At this scale the 20 unit minimum stops being a constraint on any single design, which means the choice is not one shirt for everybody but several items people can pick from. That is a genuinely different conversation from the one a twenty-player club has.
The surf season runs October to April, and Manly Warringah Netball Association holds its court bookings from the start of March to the end of August. The two overlap for barely two months, so a household or a multi-code committee here has almost no quiet stretch and is better off deciding early than waiting for one.

VS Wear is Australian owned and operated, and your order is looked after by our Australian-based team.
The risk a club with hundreds of adult members is weighing is ordering something a third of them quietly decline to wear, which is a far more expensive outcome than paying a little more per garment.
A free mock-up and unlimited revisions are what let a committee test that properly before any money moves, rather than finding out at the first carnival.
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.
A surf club with its own building is one of the few destinations on this coast that is genuinely staffed at weekends, which makes it a workable delivery point in a way a council ground is not. Northern Beaches Council manages the sportsgrounds themselves, so club orders for the field codes are better sent to a committee address. We also supply Chatswood to the west and Ryde further west again, 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.
Deepest through the adult range rather than the junior one. A club with two adults for every junior that sizes like a junior club runs short where most of its members are.
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.
It widens it. Where members are paying, polos, hoodies, jackets and tees sell far better than a single playing item, and all of them come off the same approved artwork.
Yes. Club apparel and off-field wear are part of the same range, so a club can put several items in front of its members instead of one.
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.
Through the winter, while the field codes have the district's attention. It is the only genuinely quiet stretch in your own calendar and it leaves the production window well clear of the first carnival.
Yes. Manly primary and secondary schools order house sport colours, representative team uniforms and PE gear on the same factory-direct terms as the clubs, and a single year group usually clears the 20 unit minimum.
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.
No. VS Wear does not have a store or showroom in Manly. 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 Manly 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.
