We’ve Moved: Introducing Spot-On, Our New Production Home
Extreme Wear has officially relocated to Spot-On, a bigger KZN production facility built to handle larger orders without sacrificing turnaround time. The new space gives us more printing and embroidery capacity, a smoother workflow from cutting to dispatch, and room to grow alongside our clients. Same team, same quality , now with the floor space to back it up.
Custom blue-and-yellow tracksuits for Tswelopele Club Runners, worn with pride by the club’s younger members on event day. Bold sublimated print from collar to cuff, built to move.
Lightweight, breathable and sublimation-printed edge to edge, our running shirts are made for clubs and race organisers who need a full squad kitted in matching, comfortable gear , from a quick 5km to race day at 32km.
We were proud to help out with the Boardwalk Inkwazi Cares Runathon, a 10km and 5km fun run/walk held on 25 July 2026 in support of the community, alongside RBAC, East Coast Radio and Boardwalk Inkwazi Shopping Centre.
Our national bowls team delivered an outstanding performance at the 2026 African States Bowls Tournament, held in Lusaka, Zambia in September 2026, and were crowned overall champions.
The women’s team achieved an incredible clean sweep, taking gold in every women’s discipline, while the men’s team added a haul of gold medals of their own, showcasing South Africa’s strength in international lawn bowls. We congratulate the entire team on their remarkable achievements and thank them for allowing Extreme Wear to be part of the journey.

Proudly South African. Made for the team. Built for the moment.
We were proud to help out with the Pirates Runners 10km, a race day that brought the club, its members and the wider running community together on one route.
Events like this are why we do what we do. A good race is about more than the finish time: it’s the people at the start line, the volunteers along the course and the club spirit that keeps runners coming back. A big thank you to the Pirates Runners team for having us, and congratulations to every runner who crossed the line.

Organising a race? Let’s get your runners and crew kitted out.
Two shirts can share the same design and still feel completely different once they’re on. The difference is the fabric. Weight (measured in gsm) decides how light or solid a shirt feels, while the knit and texture decide how well it breathes, stretches and holds its shape.
For hot runs and races, go light and open: Micro Active Stretch, Prolite or Hexi-Mesh. For contact sport and team kit, Birdseye adds durability without trapping heat. For golf, polo and corporate shirts, Triacetate gives a smoother, more structured finish. Every option takes full sublimation printing, so your colours stay bright whichever you choose.

When the BKR team asked us to put together shirts for their blood drive, we knew the design needed to say something before anyone even read the print. A bold blood-drop graphic across the front and back does exactly that, while the message underneath keeps the focus where it belongs: donating blood together to save lives.
The feedback said it all once the team stepped out in them: “The shirts are gorgeous. Our first blood drive wearing them.” A simple line, but it’s exactly the kind of reaction we aim for when a shirt needs to represent something bigger than the team wearing it.

When Extreme Wear teamed up with Grippin’ Stuff to kit out bowlers for our latest bowls day, we knew the shirts would perform on the green. What we didn’t expect was how many compliments they’d pull in before the last end was even played. Bowlers weren’t just talking about their shots , they were asking where to get the shirt.
That’s the kind of reaction that turns a single order into something bigger. Pre-orders started coming in before the event was even over, and it’s clear this collaboration between Extreme Wear and Grippin’ Stuff is only just getting started.

Each shirt was produced to be lightweight and breathable, with bold branding that carried the event’s identity from the start line to the finish, giving every runner a shirt that looked as good as the cause felt.

Nquthu Running Club has become one of KwaZulu-Natal’s most spirited running communities, with members tackling everything from early morning training runs to provincial road races. Extreme Wear was approached to develop custom running vests that could keep up with their pace and represent the club with pride.
Working closely with the club’s committee, we developed a lightweight, breathable vest finished in full sublimation , giving Nquthu Running Club bold, fade-proof colours and a design that’s instantly recognisable on race day, from the front of the pack to the finish line.
Full sublimation printing means your design is bonded directly into the fabric fibres, not just printed on top. The result is colour that never cracks, peels or fades, no matter how many times it goes through the wash.
At Extreme Wear, every sublimated garment is produced to your exact specification. Whether it’s a single club colour or a complex multi-colour gradient, we can produce it. There are no colour limits and no extra charges per colour added.
We’re excited to share a major step forward for Extreme Wear.
