Voyager Sportswear makes sports shirts in company colours in bulk for companies whose staff take part in a company run, meet at a sports day or play in company teams. The shirts are cut, sewn and printed in our factory in Turkey, as full-print sublimated polyester shirts or as plain shirts with the company logo, from 100 pieces per style.
What companies order
- Company run shirts. At a public company run, each company's team usually wears its own shirt. The shirt carries the company's design and is separate from anything the race organiser hands out.
- Sports day shirts. Internal sports days and tournaments often need shirts in several team colours, so that departments or locations form visible teams.
- Jerseys for staff teams. Company football, basketball or running teams wear jerseys in the company design, with numbers on request.
- Polo shirts and training tops for the staff who organise or support the event.
If you organise a public race yourself, sportswear for race and event organisers covers participant and finisher shirts. If an agency places the order on your behalf, see sportswear for merchandising and event companies.
From the brand guide to a sports shirt
A brand guide is written for print and screens; a sports shirt adds polyester fabric, movement and sweat. Three decisions turn the guide into a shirt:
- Colour. Send the brand colours as references, not only as screen values, and approve them on a printed sample of the actual fabric. Polyester and sublimation reproduce colour differently from paper, as explained in approving colour.
- Design. A full-print design lets the company pattern, colour fields and logo run across the whole shirt; what is a sublimated jersey explains how. A plain shirt with a chest logo can instead be printed with DTF or heat transfer, or embroidered. Choosing sublimation, DTF, heat transfer or embroidery compares the methods.
- Logo placement. Put the logo where it is seen in sport: the chest, the upper back and the sleeves stay visible, while a race bib or a crossed arm covers the lower front.
Name the person in the company who approves the design, so that the brand team's approval and the production approval are the same decision.
A shirt that is worn after the event
A design without the event name and year can be worn for training and at later events, and it can be reordered unchanged when new staff join. If the event itself should appear, a smaller event mark can sit apart from the main design so that the rest of the shirt stays the same from year to year. Reordering teamwear across seasons covers what to keep for a repeat order.
Sizes and the event date
Collect sizes with a short staff survey that shows the shirt's measurements, and offer a women's cut next to the unisex cut; size breakdowns and numbering shows how to turn the answers into an order. Give the date the shirts must be in the office, not the event date, in the first enquiry, and plan backwards from it as described in planning backwards from a delivery date.
Questions and answers
Can a company order running shirts for its team at a public company run?
Yes. Voyager Sportswear makes company run shirts in the company's own design, as full-print sublimated polyester shirts or plain shirts with the logo, from 100 pieces per style. Send the number of staff taking part, the expected size split, the logo files and the date the shirts must be in hand.
Can staff sports teams get matching jerseys in the company design?
Yes. Football, basketball, running and other staff teams can wear jerseys in the company design, with numbers applied on request.
Should the event name and year be printed on company sports shirts?
A shirt without the event name and year can be worn at training and later events and reordered unchanged. If the event should appear, keep it as a smaller mark separate from the main design, so the rest of the shirt stays the same from one year to the next. Decide this before the artwork is approved, because it changes whether the next order is a repeat or a new design.
