Stellar Apparel Blog about Custom Racing Apparel

Pit Crew Apparel is a great way to promote brand awareness and brand loyalty. When fans see your racing apparel with the logos of your sponsor prominently displayed they will gain knowledge and awareness of the brand you are trying to promote. Auto racing is the largest spectator sport today, with fans of drivers, teams, tracks and individuals that go out of their way to patronize a brand that supports their favorite race team.

Logos can be attached to most any garment, polo shirts, button down pit crew style shirts, caps, jackets and more to give your team that professional look and feel. When your team looks good, they feel, good and when they feel good they perform at their highest level. Any driver knows that without a solid team and great performance by the entire group that visiting victory lane would not be possible.

It doesn't matter if you are sporting a t-shirt with a 1 color imprint, button down pit crew shirts with embroidered logos, or the newest in pit crew fashion with the dye sublimated uniform shirts, you are showing pride, you are showing your sponsors that you care, you are providing invaluable brand awareness for your sponsors, and you are making your team look and feel the best they can. 

Stellar Apparel is a leader in custom racing apparel, pit crew shirts, caps, jackets, hero cards and more.

Stellar apparel has committed to writing articles on this blog about apparel decoration such as screen printing, embroidery, heat press, sublimation etc. The goal is to write articles that are informative and may answer questions that customers have in the future about the different types of decoration, the costs involved, the processes, and what you can expect from each type of decoration.

Common questions about screen-printing and embroidery are things like, what do the setups cost?, how long will it last?, will the artwork look crisp?, how long will you keep my artwork on file? By writing very targeted articles about screen-printing or embroidery and different types of decoration we will be able to narrow down a lot of these types of questions, identify them, and answer them in the best possible way.

Everyone loves looking at racing T Shirts. Whether you're at a NASCAR race or at a hometown track on a Saturday night you’ll most assuredly find racing T Shirts. The full-color artwork is colorful and typically might depict a picture of the team’s race car, or multiple cars, or the driver’s car with multiple graphics like flames or diamond plate as backgrounds.

Included in the design of your racing t shirts would be various sponsors that the team may have and a team logo and of course somewhere on the shirt would be the mainstay checkered flags. Stellar apparel creates totally custom racing T Shirts from pictures of your racecar. Totally custom art, not cookie cutter, or name drop, it’s your car, your ideas, and ultimately your racing t shirts that you have to figure on selling.

Racing T Shirts are designed totally custom from your specifications. We create artwork from concept to creation. We will design racing T Shirts from one to as many as 12 colors, but typically are designed to run in the 6 to 8 color range. Minimum orders for custom artwork, with artwork between 6 to 8 colors would be about 144 racing T Shirts.

You can expect to pay a variety of different range of prices depending on such things as the color of the racing t shirts you choose or the number of colors that we print on the front, back, sleeves or your racing t shirts or any other location you may choose and of course the total number of racing t shirts we are printing for your project.

You can view more than a few of the racing T shirts we have designed in the past for various customers on our custom screen printing page. We've done designs from one color pictures of a go-kart on only a dozen tees, all the way up artwork and projects for championship teams and drivers. We don't turn down a project involving custom racing t shirts. We love to create totally custom racing t shirts for any size team. We can handle projects of any size because we have full production capabilities. So NASCAR teams and Saturday night races alike please contact us and see how we can help you on your next project involving racing T Shirts.

Again, some of the things to consider when planning your project, which might affect the price of your racing T shirts, are things like the following:

a)      Keep in mind the color of shirts used – Whites are cheapest, Darks are more expensive

b)      Consider the sizes of the shirts you use - larger sizes like 2X+ are typically a few dollars more per shirt

c)      the locations we are going to print

d)     how many colors we are printing in each location

1. Left chest?
2. Full Front?
3. Left and/or right sleeves?
4. Full Back?

e)      and of course last but not least the total number of shirts

f)       (keep in mind shirts and sweatshirts can be mixed and matched)

Visit us online at www.StellarApparel.com to view samples of our artwork, also coming soon is our portfolio with examples of screen printing and embroidery artwork that we have done in the past for customers along with examples of racing T Shirts.
