How Long Does It Take to Get Custom Baseball Uniforms Made?
Understanding the Custom Uniform Production Timeline
When ordering custom baseball uniforms, teams often wonder how long the process will take from design to delivery. At American Sportswear, we streamline production while ensuring quality craftsmanship — but several factors influence the timeline.
Key Factors Affecting Production Time
Design Complexity & Approval
The initial design phase typically takes 1–2 weeks, depending on revisions. Teams providing detailed artwork and quick feedback can accelerate this stage. Complex designs with multiple colors or custom patterns may require additional time for digital mockups and adjustments.
Fabric & Customization Options
Standard materials ship faster than specialized performance fabrics. Basic screen printing takes less time than full sublimation or intricate embroidery. Embroidered logos add 3–5 business days compared to heat-pressed decals.
Manufacturing & Production Phases
Standard Production Timeline
Most custom baseball uniforms require 3–4 weeks for manufacturing after final approval. This includes fabric cutting, stitching, numbering, and quality control. Rush services can compress this to 2 weeks for an additional fee.
Peak Season Considerations
Spring orders (January-March) may experience slightly longer lead times due to high demand. Teams ordering in the offseason often benefit from faster turnaround.
Shipping & Delivery
Domestic shipments typically arrive within 3–5 business days after completion. International orders add 1–2 weeks for customs clearance. Expedited shipping options are available for time-sensitive needs.
Planning Ahead for Your Season
To ensure timely delivery:
- Finalize designs 6–8 weeks before needed
- Confirm player sizes early
- Account for potential revisions
- Consider offseason ordering for best availability
