Steamboat Willie is the short that is often considered the debut of Mickey Mouse in 1928. On the front of this black and grey jersey, you have the very familiar Pilots Hat that Mickey wore in the short and on the back the name Willie with the number 28. A throwback to classic old school Disney.
These jersey are sublimation printed, not patched or embroidered.
What is sublimation?
Sublimated printing means the whole design – stripes, logos, numbers, name, etc. – are heat bonded through a special process into the fabric of the jersey. It also means the fabric is extremely wash resistant. The colors will never fade, and the logos will never wrinkle or peal.
