VS Wear designs and manufactures custom sports uniforms for the rugby league, Australian rules, netball and cricket teams of Orange and the Central West, produced factory-direct at 30 to 40% below usual retail pricing and delivered on a guaranteed 3 to 4 week turnaround from design approval.
Plenty of clubs here share a nickname with a famous side somewhere else, which makes the crest the part that has to work hardest.
Most clubs that order from us here play under Group 10 Rugby League or AFL Central West, with netball and summer cricket around them.
Playing jerseys, shorts, socks and training tops for both codes, from the Group 10 sides to the union grades Orange Emus runs. Browse our rugby uniforms range.
Guernseys, shorts, socks and outerwear for the senior men's and youth girls sides Orange Tigers fields in AFL Central West. Browse our AFL uniforms range.
Dresses, bodysuits, bibs and warm-up layers for the grades playing across the district through the same winter months. Browse our netball uniforms range.
Whites, coloured one-day gear, playing shirts and caps for the summer sides taking over the grounds Orange City Council manages. Browse our cricket uniforms range.
Hoodies, jackets, polos and supporter gear, which at this altitude gets worn for more of a match day than the playing kit does. Browse our off-field wear range.
Singlets, tees, shorts and layers for pre-season work done in a Central Tablelands winter rather than a mild one. Browse our training and gym wear range.
The things clubs usually get charged extra for are already in the price.
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.
Production is guaranteed at 3 to 4 weeks from the day you approve the design. The minimum order is 20 units per design.
The unlimited logo work is the line that matters most here. A club whose name is shared with a well-known side elsewhere usually needs its crest drawn several ways before it settles on the one that unmistakably belongs to this town.
Scroll the gallery looking at where the place name sits on each design. On the strongest ones it is part of the mark rather than an afterthought squeezed under it.

View the VS Wear GalleryOrange CYMS plays rugby league in Group 10 Rugby League. So does Orange Hawks. Orange Emus covers rugby union across the Central West. Orange Tigers fields senior men's and youth girls sides in AFL Central West. Several of those nicknames are also worn by well-known clubs in other codes and other states, which is completely normal in country sport and does have one practical consequence at design stage.
The word Orange sitting in the crest itself, rather than in small type beneath it, is what tells anyone looking which side this is. A nickname alone will not do that job for a club whose name is shared with a household one. Orange Hawks and Orange Emus both carry the town inside the name for exactly that reason.
It is tempting to lean on a famous side's palette when the nickname lines up. It is worth resisting, because it makes the confusion worse rather than better and the resulting identity is not the club's own. Your colours should be a decision the committee made, not one it inherited by accident.
Where a club runs several grades, keeping every side on one approved design is what makes them read as one Orange club rather than as a group of teams that happen to share a word. Orange Tigers is the clearest local case, with a youth girls side alongside senior men in AFL Central West.
Group 10 Rugby League runs through the winter. So does AFL Central West. Orange sits high enough in the Central Tablelands that this is genuinely cold football rather than mild football, so outerwear belongs in the first order rather than being added the following year once everyone has noticed. Send us your grades and colours.
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.
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 is Australian owned and operated, and your order is looked after by our Australian-based team.
Building a mark that stands on its own is design work rather than a catalogue choice, and it is exactly the job that gets rushed when every revision has a price attached to it.
Since the drawing and the changes cost nothing, an Orange committee can look at four versions of its own crest and pick the one that nobody could mistake for anyone else's.
That is worth more in a small competition than a big one. Group 10 clubs meet each other several times a season, so a mark that has been properly thought about is seen by the same crowd again and again rather than once a year.
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.
Orange is one of the Central West's main regional centres, so freight arrives here readily and the useful decision is which address rather than how far. Council grounds are open for fixtures rather than for deliveries, so a committee address is the reliable one. We also supply Bathurst east along the highway and Lithgow further east over the range, 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 winter travel gear can start with our free custom jackets guide, which covers styles, layering and club branding on outerwear.
Build the town into the crest rather than under it. A mark that reads as belonging to this place is the only reliable way to separate a shared nickname, and it costs nothing extra to design.
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.
We would advise against it. Matching a well-known side's palette makes a shared name harder to tell apart, not easier, and the identity ends up being somebody else's rather than your own.
Yes. The crest, colours and layout stay the same and only the garment cut changes, so both come off the one approved artwork looking like the same club.
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.
Yes. At this altitude the jacket is what most people see the club in, and adding it later means running a second design conversation for something the committee already knew it wanted.
Yes. Orange 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 Orange. 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 Orange 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.
We deliver right across the region. We supply clubs at Bathurst and Lithgow, and we quote sides ordering out of Molong, Blayney and Millthorpe. The pages linked above cover several in detail and the rest are quoted on identical terms.
Send your colours, your grades and whatever mark you use now. We will draw a few versions with the town properly in it and you can choose from your own club rather than from a catalogue.
Send the garments, numbers and colours for a single side. The minimum order is 20 units per design.
