If you’re into sports, you know how important it is to wear the right outfit when you are giving yourself a serious workout. As a matter of fact, this outfit you wear during physical activities can also complement your performance. I’ve worn jerseys that end up feeling sticky. I’ve also worn jerseys that made me feel cool and dry. Like, you will thank yourself for wearing it that day.
No one wants to wear a jersey that feels like it’s weighing you down. We’ve all been there at some point. That’s exactly why I’m pumped to share my thoughts on the jerseys I use now. These are from a brand called Sport-Tek. I am positive that these garments can potentially become the go-to choice for athletes who mean business.
Everything Special About Sport-Tek Jerseys
Let’s address the bare necessity – sweat management. Jerseys are meant to help you with this. But quite a lot of cheap jerseys we go for often end up as a soggy mess. The sport tek jersey is cheap too. But unlike anything I’ve seen at that price point.
Built for performance:
Their jerseys are built for performance, for sports as the name suggests. Packed with moisture-wicking technology that pulls sweat away from your skin really fast and really well. I’ve seen players still using heavy cotton jerseys. Sport-Tek jerseys can easily give those a run for their money. I’ve also found specific styles that come with an additional rapid dry technology in addition to sweat-wicking. These are meant for all climates too.
Doesn’t weigh you down:
The lightweight construction is another game-changer, making it an ideal choice for team outfits when you consider the performance fabrics as well. The jersey I use is light but doesn’t look any less sharp.
Lasts a good while:
To be honest, I wasn’t expecting the jersey to last long, being lightweight and all. I just didn’t want to wear something as heavy as a sweater when I am out with my team. One day, after a couple months, while I was sifting through my wardrobe I noticed the jersey staying fresh, despite going through a lot of washes till then. Me and my team have ordered bulk jerseys before that were a letdown when it came to longevity. The brand cracked that nut. This also applies to the colors. To this day, the color hasn’t faded even a bit.
They go anywhere:
Your jersey should be the last thing you’re worried about when you’re focused on the game, no matter what game it is. That brings me to my next point. The versatility of these jerseys. I’ve worn them quite a lot. At the beach, the gym, and even at office parties. The stretch fabric gives you complete freedom of movement without sacrificing that sleek look. You can wear it for basketball or baseball and it won’t disappoint. The breathable mesh panels maximize airflow, keep you cool and very much comfortable.
One aspect that I’d have appreciated in my jersey is odor-resistance. But I think they do have performance tees with the feature. Not the one I own unfortunately.
Would have saved me from a lot of post-game funk.
Meant for customizing:
The store guy I bought this from told me that the jersey is meant to outfit whole teams, and are therefore built to be customizable. We bought them all retail though, and not customized either. I haven’t had the need to customize my jersey yet. But judging from the material, I am sure it will look fantastic with prints.
I’d recommend these jerseys for team managers, from a practical standpoint. I can vouch for the easy maintenance also. It is not at all pricey but meets almost everything you expect from a jersey. That makes Sport-Tek jerseys awesome in my book.
Bottom line
If you’re serious about your sport, this is gear that can match your commitment. Considering the pricing, performance and practicality, these jerseys are underrated. So next time you’re gearing up for game day, try wearing a Sport-Tek jersey. In my playbook, these jerseys and the brand that made them have definitely earned my respect.
