The enduring popularity of sports participation among our youth make team uniforms a go-to option for Omaha Promos.
Playing sports in America is a rite of passage for many kids, in fact upwards of 60 million kids are registered participants in the US. This represents an ocean of opportunity for apparel companies like us to service clients like schools and athletic clubs in a substantive way.
With sublimation representing the go-to decoration process for athletic uniforms, customer business has skyrocketed for Omaha Promos because we can decorate for you in full color and in vivid detail. Teams want to get creative with their uniform options, and are no longer willing to settle for boring, traditional looks anymore. We can add multiple design features to the jerseys, oftentimes utilizing two and three decorating processes on a single garment. For example, we can sublimate the whole apparel item, then have our embroiderer go over top with additional decoration and detail in the logo.
Another trend Omaha Promos has identified with youth sports teams uniform preferences is premium fabrics with a soft touch, stretch and movement. You're seeing teams move away from 100% poly-cotton shirts and jerseys in favor of "active cloth" which has some spandex in it. We can incorporate these options for you, not only in your team uniform choices, but also head wear and fan gear. We guarantee this stuff feels better than a plain old t-shirt.
As for colors, white and black are classic bases as jumping off points for your team uniforms, but neutrals like silvers and grays are establishing themselves as popular options as well. Omaha Promos likes to say shades of gray are the new black in uniform and related gear.
Maybe the best part of sourcing your uniforms from Omaha Promos is, they don't have to just be for sports. We are doing fun "uniform" style apparel for companies in the hospitality industry and various entertainment staff.
Decorating ideas are plentiful. As we alluded to above, sublimation is king in uniforms, but we try hard to enable little details that might have been cost prohibitive before such as names on the back, sponsor information or tournament logos. Nowadays, it doesn't cost any more with sublimation to add names or other details. Tackle-twill lettering and numbering are classic high end additions that still hold great appeal. And direct to film is a fun new addition that's emerged in the last 6-8 months; numbers are printed first, then heat pressed onto the garment with amazing results, and the end product is less expensive than you might think.
While summer sports teams are likely already in their year's uniforms, please consider Omaha Promos as your supplier for organized sports team uniforms for fall and winter sports, and of course summer sports in 2025 and beyond.
