Fastpitch and slowpitch need different kits
These are not the same uniform with a different label. The cut, the bottoms and the sleeve preference all differ, and buying the wrong one is the most common mistake we see from programs switching suppliers.
| Fastpitch | Slowpitch | |
|---|---|---|
| Typical top | Fitted, short sleeve or sleeveless | Relaxed fit, often sleeveless |
| Bottoms | Pants or knickers | Shorts or pants, varies by league |
| Fit | Athletic, closer cut | Roomier through the body |
| Sliding protection | Reinforced knee standard | Less critical |
| Typical buyer | Club and school programs | Adult rec leagues, corporate teams |
Women’s and girls’ fit, done properly
This is the thing generic uniform vendors handle worst. A great many suppliers sell a men’s small and call it a women’s uniform, which produces a garment that is too long in the torso and wrong through the shoulder.
We cut women’s and girls’ patterns separately - shorter torso, narrower shoulder, different armhole, and a waistband that sits where it should. Unisex cuts are still available for teams that prefer them.
- True women’s and girls’ patterns, not resized men’s
- Girls’ sizes YS-YXL, women’s XS-3XL
- Unisex cuts available on request
- Free sizing samples on orders of 20+ players

Frequently asked
What is the difference between fastpitch and slowpitch uniforms?
Fastpitch kits are cut closer to the body with reinforced-knee pants or knickers, since sliding is frequent. Slowpitch kits are roomier, often sleeveless, and are more commonly paired with shorts. They are genuinely different garments, not the same product relabelled.
Do you make true women’s cuts or just smaller men’s sizes?
True women’s and girls’ patterns - shorter torso, narrower shoulder, different armhole and waistband position. Unisex cuts are available for teams that prefer them.
What is the minimum order for custom softball uniforms?
5 players for team pricing. Replacement pieces on an existing design have no minimum.
How much do custom softball uniforms cost per player?
Team pricing runs $32-$89 per player depending on quantity, kit contents and decoration method.
How long does production take?
Standard orders are delivered 2-3 weeks from approved artwork, with rush delivery in 10 business days where capacity allows.
Can you match our club’s existing colours?
Yes. Send a Pantone reference or an existing garment and we match it in the proof before production.
