Default Which are the best t-shirt for a soccer team

I have an order for soccer jerseys and I have never done that before. Question: Do I heat press or screen print. My understanding is that the jerseys are 100% polyerster. I thot it will be good to seek guidance from you pros out there. I really appreciate. Also speed is a factor.

if it is polyester you could run into problems with the heatpress melting the jersey, so my vote is screen printing

No, this is nonsense. The flash point of cotton is lower than the melting point of polyester. The melting point of polyester is 490 degrees Fahrenheit. The athletic transfers I use are applied at 325.

You can get soccer jerseys from Augusta.

Either screenprinting or heat press will work fine for soccer jerseys. Numbers are easier on a heat press though.

You could screenprint it, but if it's 100% poly anyway you might as well see if you can get it dye sublimated.

you could screen, sublimate or you cut vinyl on polyester.
I guess it depends on your processes you have available and the number of jerseys to determine which one would work best.
I get my soccer jerseys from High Five Store

I've done poly hockey jerseys with Thermoflex vinyl...they came out great.

Another source for jerseys is Teamworkathletics.com
