Basketball Jersey Manufacturing
A basketball jersey production order is controlled by the garment pattern, fabric and BOM sheet, artwork package and player roster. Bulk cutting starts after those records match the approved sample.
The Production Order
Four records stay attached to the same basketball jersey style throughout production.
Basketball Jersey Pattern
The base-size pattern contains the front body, back body, neckline, armholes, bottom hem and any side panels used by the style.
V-neck and crew-neck jerseys use separate front openings and trim patterns. Contrast side panels remain separate cutting pieces. Neck and armhole bindings are separate components when specified.
Fabric and BOM
Basketball jersey fabric is entered into production by composition, GSM, knit construction, color and finish.
A style using one mesh for the main body and another material for the side panels carries separate fabric articles in the BOM. The approved sample is made in the material released for bulk production.
- Main body fabric
- Side-panel fabric where used
- Neck trim
- Armhole trim
- Second body layer for reversible jerseys
- Labels
- Twill or heat-transfer material
- Sewing thread
Sublimated Jersey Production
Full-sublimation basketball jerseys are printed as garment panels before sewing.
The artwork package contains separate front, back and side-panel files built against the approved graded pattern. The front file carries the team name, front number, logos and front graphics. The back file carries the player name, back number and rear artwork.
Player-Specific Production
Each roster row links a player name, player number, jersey size and quantity. That combination stays together through artwork, production and packing.
| Size | Player | Number | Quantity |
|---|---|---|---|
| S | Carter | 3 | 1 |
| M | Lee | 11 | 1 |
| L | Davis | 24 | 1 |
| XL | Moore | 32 | 1 |
Sublimated names and numbers enter the player-specific print file. Heat-transfer and appliqué orders keep the same roster link through decoration and packing.
Reversible Basketball Jerseys
A reversible basketball jersey uses two complete body layers. Both faces carry the correct player identity before the neckline and armhole assembly joins the layers.
Side A
Primary colorway, front number, back number, player name, logos and team artwork.
Side B
Second colorway with the same player number, size assignment and approved team identity.
Names and Numbers
Front and back number positions are recorded separately. The artwork file carries finished number dimensions, center position, digit spacing and player-name position.
Two-digit numbers are approved as one complete graphic unit. Tackle-twill specifications also record appliqué layers, stitch construction and thread colors.
Neckline and Armholes
Matching Basketball Shorts
Basketball shorts are produced from their own pattern. Sublimated jersey-and-short sets can share the same team colorway while retaining separate patterns and artwork files.
Size Grading
The approved basketball jersey block is graded into the ordered size range before player artwork is released. Chest, body length, shoulder, neckline, armhole, bottom opening and side-panel dimensions are assigned to every production size.
Neck and armhole trim lengths follow the graded openings. Player artwork is then matched to the player's confirmed size.
