Majestic, the official uniform provider of Major League Baseball, in partnership with MLB and its 30 clubs, is set to launch its new Flex Base uniform system on-field in 2016.

The new uniform design was developed through critical insights from over 50 major league players, innovative fabric technologies and extensive wear testing over a two-year period. The result is a system that delivers maximum performance and mobility when the players need it most, during competition.

The new Flex Base uniform system is engineered with new lighter weight twill technology that enhances freedom of movement and reduces the overall weight of the jersey by 10-20 per cent. The lightweight mesh of the patented climate control air belt and mesh panel ventilation zones on each side of the jersey give players even more air circulation and controlled uniform movement. The uniform also provides breathable cool base moisture-wicking fabric technology that keeps players dry and comfortable, according to a press release.

Jim Pisani, Majestic president said, “Two years of wear testing at every baseball position, countless hours of player feedback and fabric innovation have yielded the most cutting-edge and performance inspired uniform in the history of Major League Baseball. We are confident this new Flex Base uniform system will further enhance the performance of these world-class athletes during 162+ MLB games every year.”

Noah Garden, MLB executive vice president, business said, “Majestic's expertise in fabric technologies and commitment to innovation has led to this next generation uniform system that our players will enjoy wearing and competing in for years to come.”

Majestic designs, markets, and manufactures performance athletic apparel, team uniforms, outerwear and licensed athletic wear. (GK)
