Product Overview
The SOL'S Funky Contrast Baseball T-Shirt is a quintessential varsity-style garment that combines timeless aesthetics with a well-engineered fabric construction. Designed for those who require a professional yet relaxed appearance, this t-shirt features the iconic raglan sleeve and contrast ribbed collar, making it a standout choice for team identities, academic societies, and promotional events. The tubular body construction ensures a modern silhouette that maintains its shape, avoiding the twisting often associated with lower-quality alternatives.
Key Features
- Contrast raglan sleeves and a matching ribbed collar provide a distinct, classic aesthetic that frames the torso effectively and adds a professional touch to casual wear.
- A taped neck ensures the garment maintains its structure after repeated wear, preventing the neckline from stretching or losing its shape.
- The tubular body design removes side seams, offering a smoother fit and reducing potential irritation against the skin during long periods of activity.
- Twin needle finishing on the sleeves and hem provides reinforced strength, ensuring the garment remains intact and professional-looking under standard daily use.
Design & Performance
Constructed primarily from ringspun semi-combed cotton, this t-shirt offers a significantly softer hand-feel than standard cotton counterparts. The ringspun process aligns the cotton fibres to create a smoother, more durable surface. This is not only more comfortable for the wearer but also provides an exceptionally flat canvas for customisation. The sleeves incorporate a small percentage of viscose to achieve the classic marl effect while maintaining the fabric's natural breathability.
This is a standard-weight garment, making it versatile enough for year-round use within a professional environment. It is substantial enough to feel like a quality piece of apparel without being overly heavy, providing an ideal balance between durability and ease of movement. The classic fit ensures it suits a wide range of body types, maintaining a cohesive look for your entire team.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The SOL'S Baseball T-Shirt is specifically engineered to take both print and embroidery with ease. The raglan sleeve design creates a wide, uninterrupted chest area, which is the perfect location for large-scale screen printing or DTG (Direct to Garment) designs. Print is often the preferred choice for bold, vibrant graphics where making a significant visual impact is the priority.
For those seeking a more traditional and elevated professional appearance, embroidery is highly recommended. Our in-house team in Telford, who have been perfecting garment decoration since 1976, can apply intricate logos or individual names directly to the fabric. The ringspun cotton provides a stable base for high-stitch-count embroidery, ensuring your branding remains crisp and professional even after many washes.
Use Cases
This garment is an ideal choice for educational institutions, including schools, colleges, and universities, where a varsity or classic sports look is required for clubs and societies. It also serves as an excellent uniform for creative businesses, retail staff, or event teams who want to move away from the standard polo shirt while still maintaining a sharp, cohesive brand identity.

Practical Advice
As this is a classic fit t-shirt, it typically runs true to size for a comfortable, everyday fit. If you are planning to use this as a base layer under sweatshirts or hoodies, the standard-weight fabric is ideal as it doesn't add unnecessary bulk. For larger teams, we recommend reviewing our size guides to ensure a consistent fit across all members of your organisation.
Caring for your product
Properly maintaining your cotton-rich garment is the most effective way to ensure its performance and the longevity of your custom branding. Following the specific instructions on the internal care label will prevent the fabric from losing its shape or integrity over time.
Washing at the correct temperature prevents the cotton fibres from shrinking and ensures the contrast colours remain vibrant. Exposure to bleach should be avoided, as harsh chemicals will degrade the semi-combed cotton and cause irreparable damage to the custom print or embroidery.
To preserve the finish of the garment, we recommend air drying where possible. Tumble drying on high heat can cause the fibres to tighten and may result in the warping of printed designs. Always ensure you iron the garment on the reverse side of any decoration to prevent heat damage to the custom application.
