Numbering and lettering refers to the process of adding player numbers and names to sports jerseys and spirit wear. This can be done using various methods, including embroidery, tackle twill, heat transfers, and screen printing.

Embroidery is a decorative stitching technique that uses thread to create designs and text on fabric. Embroidery is often used to add logos, team names, and player numbers to items like hats, jackets, and jerseys. Embroidery can create a high-quality, durable design that can withstand repeated washing and wear.

Tackle twill is a type of applique that involves cutting out letters, numbers, or designs from a piece of fabric and then sewing them onto another fabric surface. The cut-out fabric is typically made of a durable material like twill, which can then be heat-sealed or stitched onto the garment. Tackle twill is commonly used for jerseys and spirit wear, as it provides a bold, 3-dimensional look that can withstand the rigors of athletic use.

Dye sublimation is a printing process that involves transferring dye onto fabric using heat and pressure.
