Description
The Augusta Sportswear AG1425 Octane Short is a 100% polyester wicking-knit athletic short built as a decoration blank for team, school, league, and camp programs. The full-cut body, 7-inch inseam, and covered elastic waistband with inside drawcord make it a shorter-inseam running and training short that decorators can run through sublimation and heat-press programs at a low per-unit cost. When you are outfitting a roster or a promotional giveaway and the print or transfer is the deliverable, the AG1425 keeps the blank cost down while holding the wicking performance athletes expect on the field.
For sublimation, the AG1425 is the natural fit: 100% polyester is the only fabric that accepts dye-sublimation, and on white and light shorts the print bonds permanently into the fibre with no hand and no cracking. Sublimation is the primary method here, so build white and light colourways into the order if all-over or photographic graphics are planned. For DTF transfers, the wicking knit bonds well with DTF adhesives; press at the lower end of the standard polyester range and protect the surface, because a lightweight performance knit scorches faster than heavyweight fleece. For screen printing on coloured AG1425 shorts, the 100% polyester body carries high dye-migration risk on reds, royals, and other reactive-dye colours; use a poly-blocking low-bleed underbase and cure at the minimum effective temperature, and test a print before committing a full roster run. DTG is not viable on this fabric, and the lightweight wicking knit takes embroidery only on the waistband or a stabilised panel, not on the open leg.

The AG1425 holds consistent sizing and a stable polyester base across production runs, which matters when a league reorders mid-season and the new shorts have to match the first batch on the field. Polyester shows less batch-to-batch shade drift than dyed cotton, so reorder matching on stocked colours is reliable. TheClothingSpace stocks the Augusta AG1425 at wholesale pricing with bulk discounts that increase as case and unit quantities rise, among the lowest prices online for this style, with fast US shipping on stocked colours.

Decoration Method Compatibility
How this blank performs across popular decoration methods.
| Method | Compatible | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Sublimation | ✓ | Primary method for the AG1425: 100% polyester accepts dye-sublimation; on white and light shorts the print bonds permanently into the fibre with no hand and no cracking |
| DTF Transfer | ✓ | Wicking knit bonds well with DTF adhesives; press at the lower end of the standard polyester range and protect the lightweight surface, which scorches faster than fleece |
| Screen Print (Plastisol) | ✓ | 100% polyester carries high dye-migration risk on reds, royals, and reactive-dye colours; use a poly-blocking low-bleed underbase and cure at the minimum effective temperature, and test before a full roster run |
| Vinyl / HTV | ✓ | Use polyester-rated heat-transfer vinyl at the lower press temperature to avoid scorching the lightweight knit |
| Embroidery | ✗ | Lightweight wicking knit takes embroidery only on the waistband or a stabilised panel, not on the open leg; route leg decoration to sublimation or DTF |
| Screen Print (Water-based) | ✗ | 100% polyester does not hold water-based or discharge inks; route to plastisol with a poly-block |
| DTG | ✗ | DTG is formulated for cotton and is not viable on 100% polyester wicking knit; route to sublimation, DTF, or screen print |

Fabric Blend by Color Group
Not all colorways share the same fabric composition. Check the blend before ordering for decoration jobs where substrate matters.
| Color Group | Blend | Print Consideration |
|---|---|---|
| White and light colours (Silver Gray) | 100% polyester wicking knit | Best surface for dye-sublimation; build white and light shorts into the order for all-over or photographic graphics, and screen print runs without an underbase |
| Coloured solids (Navy, Black, Maroon, Royal, Graphite, Red) | 100% polyester wicking knit | Dyed polyester blocks sublimation and carries high dye-migration risk; screen print needs a poly-blocking low-bleed underbase and minimum effective cure temp, or route to DTF |
