Custom 7v7 uniforms: fabric, sublimation and ordering guide
7v7 is a fast, small-sided game with no linemen and no pads, so the uniform has to be light, cool and easy to move in. Custom 7v7 uniforms are usually a sleeveless or short-sleeve jersey with matching shorts, fully sublimated in the team's colours. This guide covers the fabric we use, how sublimation works on a 7v7 set, what comes in a set, and how to order one for your team.
What a 7v7 uniform has to handle
Every play in 7v7 is a passing play. Receivers sprint, cut and jump for the ball, and defenders turn and chase. Tournaments often run several games in a day, in summer heat. A heavy or clingy jersey shows up quickly in that kind of schedule.
The uniform also gets grabbed. Flag and 7v7 rules punish holding, but jerseys still get pulled in the air, so seams and armholes need to be stitched to take it.
Fabric for custom 7v7 uniforms
All our 7v7 sets are polyester, which wicks sweat, dries fast and takes sublimation. Most of the sets in our range use about 180 GSM moisture-wicking polyester. Our performance uniforms go up to 220 GSM polyester and spandex for more stretch, and we can make a lighter 140-160 GSM micro mesh or interlock for very hot climates.
- Polyester interlock. Smooth face, medium stretch and a matte finish. It prints sharp detail.
- Micro mesh. More open, so more airflow. Good for side panels or the whole jersey in summer.
- Polyester with spandex. Four-way stretch for a closer, athletic fit that stays out of the defender's hands.
Why 7v7 teams print with sublimation
Sublimation dyes the design into the polyester with heat. There's no layer on top, so the print can't crack or peel, and it adds no weight. A fade, a camo panel or a lightning bolt costs the same as a plain colour, which is why 7v7 kits tend to be so loud.
Names and numbers go on in the same print run, so they stay flat and flexible on a stretch fabric. On a jersey that gets pulled at every catch, that matters.
Things you can change on any design
- Colours. Every design can be redrawn in your team colours.
- Logo and team name. Front, back, shoulders or shorts leg.
- Player names and numbers. Printed in the same pass as the body.
- Sponsor marks. Placed where your league allows them.
Light fabric, loud print, numbers that never peel. What a good 7v7 kit comes down to

Will the print crack or fade?
No. Sublimation dyes the design into the polyester, so there's nothing on the surface to crack or peel, even when the fabric stretches.
