The Ultimate Guide to Crafting a High-Quality Sublimated Jersey: Precision from Thread to Shipment

At Vellca Sportswear Co.,Ltd, we take pride in delivering premium sublimated jerseys that exceed expectations. Every step—from raw materials to final shipment—is meticulously executed to ensure perfect fit, vibrant colors, and unmatched durability. Here’s how we create the perfect sublimated jersey for your team.

1. Premium Raw Materials: The Foundation of Excellence

Fabric Selection
We use 100% high-performance polyester microfiber for superior moisture-wicking, breathability, and stretch.

The fabric is pre-shrunk and colorfast to prevent fading or warping after multiple washes.

Thread & Stitching

Reinforced polyester thread ensures durability, preventing seam breaks even under intense movement.

Double-stitched seams for extra strength in high-stress areas (shoulders, armpits, hem).

Sublimation Ink

Eco-friendly, dye-sublimation inks that penetrate fabric fibers (not just surface prints) for vibrant, fade-resistant designs.

CMYK color calibration for true-to-design accuracy.

2. Design & Digital Printing: Precision & Perfection

Custom Artwork & Vectorization

Our design team works with vector-based software (Adobe Illustrator, CorelDRAW) to ensure crisp, scalable graphics.

Designs are optimized for sublimation—no pixelation, bleeding, or misalignment.

Laser-Cut Transfer Paper

Designs are printed on specialized sublimation transfer paper with high-resolution inkjet printers.

Laser-cut precision ensures clean edges with no excess paper, preventing ink smudging.

Controlled Workshop Environment

Humidity (40-50%) and temperature (20-25°C) controlled to prevent ink absorption issues.

Dust-free printing area to avoid imperfections.

3. Heat Transfer: Locking in Vibrant Colors

Industrial heat press machines apply 400°F heat at optimal pressure for 45-60 seconds, ensuring:

Full ink penetration into fabric fibers.

No cracking or peeling even after 50+ washes.

Teflon sheet protection prevents scorching or shiny marks.

4. Fabric Cutting: Perfect Fit Every Time

Computer-aided cutting machines follow digital patterns with 0.5mm precision.

Bias-cut fabric for better stretch and comfort.

Reinforced notches for seam alignment accuracy.

5. Sewing: Flawless Construction

Industrial Juki or Brother sewing machines for straight, smooth, and durable stitches.

Flatlock stitching on seams to reduce chafing and improve flexibility.

Laser-guided alignment ensures symmetrical panels.

6. Quality Control & Finishing Touches

Inspection & Ironing
Each jersey is steam-pressed to remove wrinkles and ensure a crisp finish.

Stitch-per-inch (SPI) checks to confirm durability.

Final Checks
Color accuracy under LED lightboxes.

Stretch and fit test on mannequins.

Wash test (sample batches) to confirm colorfastness.

7. Packaging & Shipment: Ready for Game Day

Individual polybagging to prevent scratches or dust.

Custom branding options (hang tags, labels).

Bulk carton packaging with anti-moisture lining.

On-time global shipping with tracking.
