Quick answer

Wash a sublimated Bisons jersey inside out in cold water on a gentle cycle, skip fabric softener and bleach, and air-dry it flat or on a hanger. Store it folded or hung away from direct sunlight and dampness, and never iron directly over the print.

Print care for sublimated jerseys

Sublimated decoration is dyed into the fabric rather than applied on top, so it does not crack or peel the way a heat-transfer print can. That does not make it indestructible: rough zippers, Velcro, and dryer heat can still abrade or fade the surface. Turn the jersey inside out before washing and close any zippers on nearby garments to reduce friction.

Drying and storage decisions that prevent damage

Heat is the main enemy of any jersey. Air-dry whenever possible, and if you must use a dryer, choose the lowest heat setting and remove the jersey while it is still slightly damp. For storage, a padded hanger or a clean, dry drawer both work; avoid plastic bags that trap moisture, and keep game-worn or autographed pieces out of humid basements.

Bisons jersey care FAQ

Can I machine wash my Bisons jersey?

Yes. Turn it inside out, use cold water on a gentle cycle, and a mild detergent. Avoid bleach, fabric softener, and washing with heavy items like jeans that can cause abrasion. Cold and gentle is the default for every jersey.

How should I dry a baseball jersey?

Air-dry flat or hang it up. If you use a dryer, choose the lowest heat and take the jersey out while it is still slightly damp to minimize shrinkage and print stress. Air-drying is always the safest choice.

What is the best way to store a jersey long-term?

Hang on a padded hanger or fold in a clean, dry drawer. Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from damp areas. For autographed or game-worn jerseys, consider a breathable garment bag rather than sealed plastic. Dry, dark, and breathable protects both fabric and signature.

Can I iron a sublimated jersey?

Avoid ironing directly on the decoration. If you must smooth wrinkles, turn the jersey inside out and use the lowest setting, or use a pressing cloth between the iron and the fabric. Never let a hot iron touch the print.

How do I clean a game-worn or autographed jersey?

Spot-clean only unless you are comfortable with the risk. These jerseys are sold as is with no returns, so consult a professional textile cleaner if the piece is valuable to you. When in doubt, do not machine wash.
