The “old” way to order team jackets

For most organizations, placing a team jacket order has been an arduous task in the past. First, you have to find a company with a jacket that everyone can agree on. Then, make sure it can be embroidered and is priced within your budget. Next, you have to figure out how many of each size you need based on how much you think the kids will grow in the next year and who will be on the team. Finally, you need to make sure you get the order in by their deadline so the jackets are available when you need them.

Most ski apparel companies have a very limited selection of jackets that could work for customizing for a ski team. There are usually three issues. One, their brand logo takes up the place where you would like to put yours. Two, because of pockets and linings and insulation methods, these jackets are often difficult to actually embroider – you just can’t position the machine properly. Three, these jackets are on the same production schedule as the main products in their line. Therefore, teams must place their orders almost a full year in advance so that the jackets can be made during normal production runs. Determining the jacket size for a growing young ski racer almost a year in advance is nearly impossible. So ordering ski team jackets from most brands is not a viable option.

Businesses that offer team sportswear and other imprintable items do have product available all year long that is easy to embroider. But they don’t have jacket styles available that are durable enough to stand up to the rigors of ski racing and training. Or that will be warm enough. So that rules them out.
