Baseball Jerseys

The button front is what separates this from every other jersey. It means one garment gives you two looks — closed as the main piece, or open over a tee with the front panels still carrying the design.

Anatomy of the Cut

Ours follow the shape of a traditional baseball uniform top, and three details do most of the work.

The placket. A full run of buttons down the front. Worn open it becomes a layer rather than a shirt, which is why this cut gets more wear per year than a pullover jersey.

Ribbed collar and cuffs. These hold shape through repeated washing better than a jersey-knit crew neck, and they are the parts to reshape by hand rather than press with heat.

Straight hem, longer at the back. Meant to be worn out, not tucked, and cut so it stays covering when you sit or reach.

Names and Numbers on the Back

The back panel is deliberately left clear because that is where identification belongs — surname across the shoulders, number beneath.

Two rules save trouble. Read the spelling character by character, not word by word, because a personalised piece is produced to your exact specification and a typo is not something a warehouse can catch. And order earlier than feels necessary, since personalisation adds production time before transit even starts. Timings are on Shipping Info.

Open or Closed Changes the Garment

This is the practical reason to choose this cut over a pullover.

Closed it reads as team kit — the full front carries the design and the look is deliberate.

Open over a plain tee it reads as a summer layer, and the design shows in two vertical strips instead of one block. Busy artwork actually works better this way than it does closed, because the eye reads it in pieces.

Worth checking before you buy: designs built around one central image lose their focal point when the placket splits them. Repeating patterns and edge-to-edge artwork do not.

Ordering for a Team or a Group

More of these leave here in batches than singly. Collect chest and length measurements rather than letter sizes — people report the size they have always bought instead of the one they currently wear, and across a squad that becomes several exchanges.

Send everyone the size chart before you start, then place the whole batch together so it is produced in one run. A Hat finishes the set without adding another sizing decision.

Care Specific to a Button Front

Fasten every button before washing. An open placket tangles in a machine drum and puts strain on the button seams that no other part of the garment sees — it is the single most common way these fail.

Then cold water, inside out, hung to dry. Keep heat off the printed area and off any personalised lettering entirely.
