|  About sports uniforms
Hi,
I'm just wondering, if we absolutely need a 16x20 press or will a 15x15 be ok if we want to print (amongst other things) custom uniforms (logo, names and numbers) for sports teams like hockey, football, soccer...
We're just about to buy it and we want to buy the right press.
Thanks! | |

I use a 15x15 all the time, I will say that a 16x20 would make life easier though. ..... JB

I use a 12x15...it can be done with a small press if you're on a very limited budget, BUT if you have the funds in your budget to buy a 16X20 I think that would be the way to go. | |

I have a 15x15 and the only thing that hurts is when you have long names. I did some uniforms in the past where ive had to press the name down twice because the whole name wouldnt fit on the press the first time.
But i agree with JB, a 16x20, if you have the budget for it, will make life easier. | |

Thanks everyone! I think we will go with the 16x20, even if it hurt my pocket a bit! | |
