SUBLIMATION
Sublimation Printing (Apparel)
Brilliant Colour. Incredible Comfort. Permanent Results.
Sublimation printing is the ultimate choice for vibrant, full-colour athletic apparel. Unlike traditional printing methods, sublimation permanently infuses the ink into the fabric itself, creating designs that become part of the garment rather than sitting on top of it.
The result is incredibly vivid colours, exceptional detail, and a print that will never crack, peel, or fade.
For sports teams, performance apparel, and custom jerseys, sublimation offers unmatched durability and unlimited creative possibilities.

Built for Performance
Because the design becomes part of the fabric, sublimated apparel maintains its breathability, stretch, and comfort without adding extra weight or stiffness. Even after years of washing and competition, the colours remain bright, making sublimation the preferred choice for athletes and teams that expect their uniforms to perform as hard as they do.
The Urban Valley Tees Difference
We work with premium performance garments and high-resolution artwork to produce jerseys and apparel that look as good as they perform. Every design is professionally prepared to ensure sharp graphics, accurate colours, and a polished finish.
Whether you're creating a simple team jersey or a completely custom uniform, we'll help bring your vision to life.
Is Sublimation Right for Your Project?
Sublimation is ideal for polyester performance apparel and works best on light-coloured garments. Because the artwork becomes permanently embedded into the fabric, it's the perfect choice for jerseys and athletic wear that need to withstand years of competition and repeated washing.
If you're decorating cotton garments or dark apparel, we'll recommend another decoration method such as DTF, screen printing, or embroidery to achieve the best results.
Why Urban Valley Tees?
Every team deserves apparel they're proud to wear. At Urban Valley Tees, we combine creative design, premium materials, and professional production to deliver custom sublimated apparel that looks incredible from the first game to the final whistle.
Whether you're outfitting a local club or a competitive program, we're here to help you create uniforms that stand out.
