Get the Russell compression fit or ones like it.. we went to them this year and they were great. Hard for the opponent to get hold of you if they can't grab you.

We are about to order the Under Armour uniforms , our uniform/equipment guy came a cross what he thinks is a great deal. Does anyone in HS use the UA uniforms?

I am currently in the same situation. I am in the process of getting bids from Nike, Russell, Riddell and Speedline. All of them now have some version of the compression fit.
Anyone have Riddell?? They will pick up all your uniforms at the end of the season and profesionally clean them and sew any rips or tears. I was very impressed with the quality of their compression jersey and it was only 72.00 for each jersey with everything I want on it. The same Nike jersey was 115.00

We are also looking for uniforms, and are considering Nike, Russell, Sportsbelle, and Riddell. Compression fit is a plus but may be out of the budget. Nike has the double overtime program that will let us get their cowboy jersey for less than 80 bucks. Russell seems to have better priced blanks but printing is more expensive. Sportsbelle used to be a top quality product but factory burnt so don't know any longer. Riddell is probably the best price to quality ratio but kind of plainjane jersey. Most coaches in this area recommend Russell.

The Russell Extreme Compression is a great jersey.

Russell Compressions are cheaper than the Riddell....we just ordered them last fall and LOVED them. Not sure what cost was on them, but budget was tight and we ended up with enough money (after buying both home and away jerseys 70 of each) to be able to buy 80 pairs of both home and away game pants from Russell as well.

There are a couple of companies out there Pro Look (www.prolooksports.com) and Velocity for sure that will give you a flat rate on a customizable jersey. I think it is somewhere between $80-$100. They will do whatever you want logo, writing, numbers, trim without it changing the price.

Under Armour uniforms same style as Texas Tech
$85 for jersey
$70 for pants,
They are awesome but probably a little out our range to buy 70 sets.

We got them for 70 bucks. (Russell Compressions)
Got game pants for 330 bucks.
100 bucks a uniform is a steal in my book.

You should get diamond plate on the shoulders of the jerseys. (like OREGON)
I felt like starting a fight!

OK, I dont' know if this question should be here or not. I'm looking into getting new uniforms next year. Any suggestions, things to watched out for, good companies, advice? Thanks in advance for your help. OJW Best deal on the planet. Go to footballamerica.com and then go to their custom uniform builder tool....design your custom uniform and save it / print it / email it to yourself. Then call Earl Hopkins at Hopco Sports 719-382-7085 and get him your custom uniform design info. Tell them you were referred by the Denver Titans minor league football org. He may come to see you in person. The jerseys are 150 dnr ( NFL quality ) on the shoulders and 100 dnr on the body...tackle twill numbers on front (10") and back (12") and TV numbers on the cowls (4")...team logo per your design...team name (2")...player name plates (2")...spandix lycra inserts for extreme fit...high sheen for looks....gathered sleeves....double stiching....fully hemmed...stry mesh for heat exchange comfort. We ordered 65 home and 65 away jersey's...50 fan jersey's and 70 one color spadix lycra high sheen pants with opposing belt color...5 blanks home and away jersey's and replacement numbers for those 10 jersey's plus a few. The jersey's are manufactured in the Philippines. Total cost shipped to our doorstep $ 8737.00 That breaks down to $45 per jersey ( Tenn Titans style with a special twist ) $24 for the fan jersey's $24 for the pants....plus a couple hundred for spare numbers and 600 for shipping. Our sizes ranged from adult M to adult 6X. We were very happy with the product. A few very minor tears at the seams and our TB had his number "2" ripped off once. The only special washing instructions is no softeners and hang dry. After one season 90% still look new. Your custom design is kept on file for as long as you need it. Ours were tri color purple, silver and black with black pants and purple belts. All numbers were two tone to oppose the base. The team logo was stitched into the jersey's. He filled our order in 6 weeks and sent us a sample prior to production. Coach Mike ***I have no affiliation…Earl just took great care of us so I will spread the good word. |

We got new jerseys from SportsBelle this year. I would strongly suggest you DO NOT get them from Sports Belle. Screen printing came off of jerseys after one wearing. Jerseys ripped all over the place White pants came in 3 different colors I know one of their factories burnt down and they probably outsourced causing the 3 different colors of pants. But I guess that's what we get for having Ebenezer Scrooge for an AD. What ever is cheapest. I second that Sportsbelle is garbage. Our youth league bought them and they lasted about 2 years. Save a few dollars but you'll end up doing it again. We have Riddell and they will fix, replace your jerseys. Only problem with replacing is that there were small differences. Good Uni's though. |

Go to Niketeam.com and you can customize any type of nike jersey. Nike is like any other jersey company, you have to buy the product before January 16th and you will get 15% off their jerseys. We ordered them last year and they are great. I paid $80 a top and $45 for pants and they were the modified invincible jerseys. They are the stiched numbers with TV numbers as well. Hold up really well. Well worth the price. Our kids love them. We also became a nike school and signed a 5 year agreement with nike saying we would be in all nike uniforms in 5 years. We got 3000 up front to get coaching gear and now our kids get big discounts on apparel and equipment from Nike team. Best deal i have ever seen.
