Custom Football Thermal Base Layer Tops
ZipaSports manufactures custom football thermal base layer tops in Sialkot, Pakistan, with a minimum order of 20–25 pieces per design and 15–25 business day production. Ordered by clubs playing winter fixtures and by academies that issue a base layer to every player alongside the match kit.
The knit is a 260 GSM brushed poly-spandex with four-way stretch, so it holds close to the body without restricting the shoulder through a throw or a header. All joins are flatlocked at 6 millimetres to keep seam bulk off the skin under a jersey, and the raised collar is cut in one piece to avoid a rubbing seam at the throat. Decoration is limited to small sublimated marks or heat transfer, since embroidery would sit against the skin.
Send your logo, colours and reference designs — or just an idea — and the design studio returns a free digital mockup within 24 hours. OEM and private-label orders ship with your own woven labels, size tags and branded packaging, applied in-house.

Football Thermal Base Layer Tops — Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum order for custom football thermal base layer tops?
20–25 pieces per design. Lower quantities are possible on request, and there is no MOQ limit for sportswear brands and companies.
What are football thermal base layer tops made from?
260 GSM brushed polyester-spandex thermal knit, four-way stretch, 6 mm flatlock seams. GRS-certified recycled fabric options are available on request.
How long does production take?
Bulk production takes 15–25 business days after design approval, with an express 7–12 day service at additional cost. A free digital mockup is delivered within 24 hours of your enquiry.
How tight should a thermal base layer be ordered?
It should be close enough that the fabric stays in contact with the skin, since a trapped air gap defeats the purpose. Most players take their true chest size rather than sizing up. Our chart lists a stretched and relaxed chest measurement so you can judge compression before committing to a run.
Will the brushed inner face pill against a match jersey?
The inner face is brushed and the outer face is left smooth, so friction against the jersey happens on the flat side. Washing inside out at 30 degrees and avoiding softener reduces pilling further. Any surface fuzz that appears can be removed with a fabric comb without damaging the knit.
Can these be made in a lighter weight for milder conditions?
Yes, we run the same block in an unbrushed 200 GSM poly-spandex for autumn and spring use. Clubs often order both weights in one production run using the same artwork. Tell us the split by size and we will label each weight separately in packing.
How much do custom football thermal base layer tops cost?
Pricing depends on fabric choice, order quantity, decoration and destination, so every order is quoted individually. Send your design and quantity on WhatsApp (+92 300 7019281) for a same-day quote and a free digital mockup within 24 hours.
