Choosing Your Heat Transfer Numbers Sizes
Most uniforms use a 6” number for youth sizes and an 8” number for adult sizes. If you have both youth and adult sizes on the same roster, use the size that most would need for all. There also can be variance for size by sport. Here is a helpful number size chart.
