Fabric and Construction

The 1661 is built from 100% polyester wicking knit. Performance details include wicks moisture, contrast color pinhole mesh inserts, giving real benefits for practice, competition, and all-day team wear. It is engineered to hold up to a full season of play and repeated team laundering.

This style uses moisture wicking, a real performance benefit teams notice on the field and in the wash, not a generic finish. That is the kind of construction detail that separates a true team blank from a basic shirt.

Verified construction details for this style:

• 100% polyester propelit micromesh wicking knit body
• 92% polyester/8% spandex wicking pinhole mesh side panels and sleeve inserts
• Wicks moisture
• Tag-free label
• Full-button jersey
• Buttons spaced for easy embellishment
• Contrast color pinhole mesh inserts
• Contrast color piping

Every spec above is drawn from the Augusta Sportswear product data, so the blank a team decorates matches what ships. That consistency is what lets a decorator trust the surface from one run to the next, and what keeps a reorder matching the original uniform.

Fit and Sizing

This style is cut for youth athletes in a team athletic fit. Teams order matching uniforms across the available size range, and because the fit is consistent from run to run, a fill-in order sits beside the originals without a visible difference.

For programs building a full kit, companions like 1218 coordinate in the same family, so tops and bottoms read as one uniform.

Specifications at a Glance

Decoration and Print Performance

The 1661 decorates on the chest, full back, and sleeves for team numbers and logos. With 100% polyester wicking knit, a polyester-rated process and a controlled cure keep colors clean and guard against dye migration, so a printed or pressed mark stays sharp through a full season of team laundering. Suitable methods here are screen print, heat transfer, sublimation, tackle twill numbers, and embroidery. Decoration tracks the rest of the Augusta performance apparel range.

Sublimation and DTF open up full-color graphics on light polyester, letting a program run complex art, gradients, and all-over designs that screen print cannot match economically. A test piece confirms color and placement before a full run so the order comes out uniform.

Tackle twill and sewn numbering deliver the traditional, durable look teams expect on jerseys, with stitched-down twill that survives a full season of play. It is the classic choice for baseball, basketball, and football numbering.

Placement is the key decision: a centered chest or full-back layout for team marks, a left-chest logo for staff and corporate looks, and sleeve or leg hits for sponsors. Because the garment decorates predictably, a saved layout carries cleanly into reorders.

For mixed orders, combining a screen-printed team logo with heat-applied individual names and numbers is the standard, efficient approach, letting a decorator run the common art once and personalize each piece. Every position is proofed on a sample before the run.

Color and thread choices shape the final look: tonal marks read understated and premium, while high-contrast art pops for visibility on the field. On dark performance polyester, a quick test confirms how a color reads before committing the full order.

Wholesale and Team Program Buying

Program buyers choose the 1661 as a decorate-ready team blank for teams, leagues, and school athletic programs. It cross-sells with companions like 1218 and 1219, and with the broader augusta jerseys and tees range.

For long-running programs, a dependable team blank is what keeps a school or club looking consistent year over year, so this season uniforms match last season without anyone having to explain a difference.

Coordinating tops and bottoms from one supplier simplifies a program order: a single purchase can cover jerseys, shorts, and warmups in matching colors with one decoration setup, which is cleaner than sourcing pieces from several brands.

Sizing a team is easier with a consistent blank, because a coordinator can order a known size run, keep a sizing sample on hand, and trust that a fill-in order will match the originals rather than arriving a half-size off.

Decoration lead time is in the program own hands when it orders blank, so a decorator can schedule around a season start or a tournament date rather than waiting on a pre-decorated production queue.

Where This Style Fits

This style fits a range of team buyers:

Youth and rec leagues outfit large numbers of players on tight timelines, where a consistent blank that one-size-fits-many across a roster and decorates fast is exactly what a volunteer coordinator needs to get a season started.

Travel and club teams reorder the same look across multiple seasons and age groups, so a dependable style that holds its fit and color from batch to batch keeps a club identity consistent as players move up through the program.

Fundraiser and team-store programs sell decorated pieces to families and fans, where a recognizable design and a reliable blank turn a simple order into a revenue stream that funds equipment and travel.

Camps and clinics hand out decorated team apparel as part of the experience, where a clean logo on a consistent blank doubles as a keepsake and as ongoing advertising for the program after the event ends.

As a youth cut, the 1661 is sized and proportioned for younger athletes, with a fit that moves on the field and a forgiving cut that suits a wide range of growing players. Youth programs value that a single style outfits a roster of mixed sizes and reorders the same way as players move up, so a league can keep its look consistent year to year.

Everyday Team and Spirit Wear

Beyond game day, the 1661 works as everyday team, spirit, and program wear, from practice and travel days to fan and booster stores. Its decoration-ready surface suits a screen-printed school or club mark, a left-chest logo for staff, or a full-color spirit design, so a single style covers competition, sideline, and supporter needs while keeping one consistent look across the program.
