Product Features
Double-Layer Shoulder Yoke: Multi-layer construction applied to high-wear contact zones over the shoulders and upper chest.
Moisture-Management Weave: Hydrophobic synthetic yarn structure designed to transport sweat away from the body surface.
Ergonomic Torso Cut: Pattern geometry dimensioned to accommodate youth protective gear and chest protectors without restricting arm extension.
Anti-Snag Surface: Tight interlock knit structure selected to reduce surface fiber pulling from equipment hook-and-loop fasteners.
Customization Options
Full-Dye Sublimation: Direct heat-transfer printing that bonds ink into synthetic polyester fibers; graphics do not crack, peel, or fade through standard industrial laundering.
Colors: Custom Pantone matching (PMS) available for body panels, striping, and gradient designs.
Team Cresting Options: High-definition tackle twill embroidery, multi-layer heat-seal application, or flat digital sublimation for logos, numbers, and player names.
Collar Styles: Traditional pro-style overlap V-neck, lace-up pro collar, or athletic comfort ribbing options.
Manufacturing & Production
Fabric Knitting and Dyeing: In-house knitting machines process raw cationic polyester yarn, followed by controlled heat-setting to maintain dimensional shrinkage within plus-minus 2 percent.
Pattern Grading: Digital CAD grading maintains proportional accuracy across youth sizing tiers (YS, YM, YL, YXL) based on standardized protective gear volumes.
Sublimation Printing: Industrial large-format transfer printers operate at 200 degrees Celsius to achieve ink penetration into synthetic yarn cores.
Assembly Line: Specialized sewing cells utilize 4-needle 6-thread flatlock machines to produce flat interior seams.
Quality Control
Fabric Physical Testing: Random roll samples tested for bursting strength (ASTM D3786) and Martindale abrasion resistance.
Color Fastness Inspection: Sample batches tested for ISO 105-C06 wash fastness and ISO 105-B02 lightfastness.
Stitch Integrity Audit: Seam slip resistance verified under tension; units failing inspection are routed for rework.
Dimensional Verification: Finished garments measured against size-chart tolerances prior to individual poly-bagging.
OEM & ODM
Private Labeling: Custom woven neck labels, silicone care instruction tags, and branded outer packaging bags.
Tech Pack Development: Engineering team translates 2D vector artwork or physical sample requests into production-ready CAD specifications within 24 hours.
Prototyping: Physical pre-production sample (PPS) creation available for color verification and fit approval prior to bulk manufacturing runs.
Applications
Youth Ice Hockey Leagues & Associations: Uniform kits engineered to endure full-season league play, team positioning changes, and recurring athletic washing cycles.
Travel & Select Hockey Clubs: Durable tournament apparel tailored for multi-game weekend showcases and intensive travel team training schedules.
School & Academy Athletic Programs: Standardized team kits designed to accommodate growing youth athletes while fitting securely over mandatory protective gear.
Regional & International Tournaments: Custom-sublimated competition jerseys produced to exact team color specifications and individual player rosters.
