Micro polyester is light, breathable and budget-friendly; interlock is heavier, more structured and premium. For hot Indian conditions most teams prefer micro polyester, while interlock suits a premium match feel.
Fabric decides how a jersey feels on the field and how long it lasts. The two most common choices for sublimated cricket kits are micro polyester and interlock.
Here is how they compare so you can pick with confidence.
Micro polyester
A fine, lightweight knit that breathes well and dries fast — ideal for long days in the sun. It takes sublimation colour vividly and keeps costs down.
Interlock
A denser double-knit with more body and a smoother surface. It feels premium and holds shape well, at a slightly higher weight and price.
