Choosing The Perfect Custom Race Suit: Printed or Sublimated

Choosing The Perfect Custom Race Suit: Printed or Sublimated

When it comes to selecting a custom-made race suit, one of the critical decisions you'll face is whether to opt for a printed or sublimated design. Both options offer unique benefits, and the choice largely depends on your design preferences, budget, and performance needs. Let's delve into the differences between printed and sublimated race suits so you can make an informed decision that suits your racing style.

Printed Custom Race Suits

Printed race suits are an excellent choice for those who prioritize design flexibility and vibrant color combinations. With printed suits, you can choose from three pre-defined design options: Single Base Color, Three-Color General Design, and Four-Color Complex Design, the latter being the most popular among racers. For each of these designs, you have the freedom to combine colors from a 20-color chart, allowing for a high degree of personalization.

One of the standout features of printed race suits is the ability to showcase multiple logos. The Three-Color and Four-Color designs, for example, allow for one large logo on the chest, four series logos on the chest, and two logos on each arm. These logos are printed (not embroidered), ensuring that they remain vibrant and durable even after multiple washes and high-speed races.

The printed option is ideal for racers who want to make a bold statement on the track with intricate designs and a wide range of color options. It's also perfect for those who need their suit to represent sponsors or racing teams with multiple logos.

Sublimated Custom Race Suits

Sublimated race suits, on the other hand, offer a different set of advantages, particularly in terms of cost-effectiveness and simplicity. The sublimation process involves transferring dye directly into the fabric, resulting in a design that is both durable and lightweight. Although sublimation adds a slight weight to the suit and marginally reduces breathability, it is designed to maintain a balance between performance and style.

The sublimated option is more streamlined, offering one design choice with three different color options. Despite the simplicity, it still allows for ample customization with one large logo on the chest, four series logos on the chest, and two logos on each arm. This makes sublimated suits a great choice for racers who prefer a sleek, professional look without compromising on branding opportunities.

Sublimated suits are often preferred by those who are looking for a budget-friendly option without sacrificing quality. The design process is straightforward, and the final product is a durable, stylish suit that meets the demands of high-speed racing.
