There is nothing better than seeing an entire league outfitted with classic bowling shirts. These polyester, rayon, or cotton button down shirts have been the hallmark for bowling lovers for more than half a century. The look has been highlighted in musicals made about the hay day of bowling back in the 50’s and 60’s. That retro look is coming back in spades. The chic look of these shirts helps bowling take on a more sophisticated and suave look. They also look great in the lounge after your league play is over or even at the dance club as you top off your evening.
There are several optional looks to classic bowling shirts. The days of blue, grey or tan only are long gone. Combinations of colors across the rainbow now appear with this classic cut. Neon colors also adorn the backs of bowling teams wishing to draw attention or make a bolder fashion statement. Patterns and designs also help give each team the opportunity for a one of a king look. Even the fabrics a have changed over the years. No longer are shiny fabrics or cotton your only choices. Newly developed fabrics as well as velvet are equally adept at giving the shirt a great look.
If you are in charge of buying classic bowling shirts you need to make sure you try to buy them as close to wholesale prices as possible. This is especially true if you are making only a small team order. Bulk orders garner deeper discounts and will leave more money for printing. You need to talk with all of the team members to get information on sizes and input on the color and design they all prefer. Another person to talk to is the bowling alley owner. Be sure to check if there are any guidelines or limitations they may have regarding what kind of shirts they allow.
If you need to buy classic bowling shirts for your entire league there are other considerations you need to heed. Price pints become even more important because the cost to the bowler will only go up from there. Scouting out a good wholesaler is the key to keeping everyone happy down the road. You need to make sure you get sizing and color orders from each team and compile those in a list to buy enough of each size and color. Try to stay generic as possible in terms of patterns and spacing on the shirt for various sponsor logos.
Occasionally, you have to buy classic bowling shirts for individuals for special events or occasions. Some special events may include tournaments or fundraisers. Tournaments may use shirts for bowlers or sell them as commemorative items. Fundraisers may use them as prizes for scoring high in certain categories or to sell as memories of the occasion and to raise extra money for the cause. Another occasion you may purchase these shirts is for gifts to family and friends. The design can be a reminder of this very special day.
