Summer sports kits for your local clubs

When it comes to doing sports in winter, you need your kit to be comfortable but to also keep you warm and dry when the weather turns bad and for summer you need it to keep you cool and dry when the temperature rises, so now we are into summer, and the kids are about to break up from school it’s an ideal time to think about changing your sports clubs kit. Many clubs use t shirt printing to have their teams name on and any sponsorship, so it’s not that hard to have a summer kit also printed up onto a new summer kit.

No matter what sport you play you need your kit to be practical, comfortable and of high quality, so you need to make sure you use a reliable retailer, such as online printing company Splash Logo who offer a wide range of sports clothes. Anything from football, golf, cricket and rugby to performance wear, motorsports sailing and cycling, logo’s , embalms and sponsorship can easily be put on using various high quality long lasting printing methods. They also offer a quick turnaround time so if you need a new kit in a hurry they are the ideal option.

Stella McCartney appointed creative director at Addidas

Fashion designer Stella McCartney is set to take over as Addidas’s Olympic Creative Director and will be designing a fashion athletic kit for those taking part in the 2012 games, Stella already designs a best-selling line for the label. A UK adidas official said: ‘This is the ultimate fusion of performance and style,’ at her appointment, Stella’s latest adidas designs include a gorgeous glow in the dark running range, which will be launched soon.

Speaking about her designs that not only look great but are also affordable, Stella said: ‘When you are running in an urban environment, you need to feel safe, when people can see you coming and stand out, especially in winter when it gets dark earlier, but at the same time we used it on a leopard print, so it’s not so masculine and graphic. We also have glow-in-the-dark key rings which have a nice sense of humour, which you can have if you are a man, a woman, or a kid.’
