Sport-Tek ST350 performance tee for races and tournaments

When a race director wants a 'real' race shirt, this is the one: a lightweight 100% polyester tee that wicks sweat and holds its color. The ST350 comes in a wide size range and a youth match (YST350). Battle Born Clothing prints it in-house with inks and cure settings set for polyester.

What a performance race shirt costs
The screen print rate is the published $4.34 per location at 48 (plus $0.25 flash per location on darks and $20 per screen per color); the blank is quoted per job. Polyester needs low-bleed ink and a careful cure to keep the shirt dye from migrating into the print, which we handle on our conveyor dryer. Full-color sponsor art on a performance shirt is often better as a DTF transfer, quoted per job.
| Job | Print per piece | Screens (one-time) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 color, front only, light shirt | $4.34 | $20 |
| 1 color, front only, dark shirt (flash) | $4.59 | $20 |
| 1 color front + 1 color back, light shirt | $8.68 | $40 |
| 1 color front + 1 color back, dark shirt | $9.18 | $40 |
Decoration options
Screen print is the usual pick for event shirts on the ST350: 1 or 2 colors on the front, sponsor logos on the back. DTF transfers (produced by a Carson City partner and pressed in our shop) handle full-color art and small counts, quoted per job. Left-chest embroidery works for staff and volunteer shirts. Light colors print cleanly; reds and dark polys get low-bleed ink. See decoration.
