CHICAGO COMPANY MARKS AMERICA'S 250TH WITH A HANDMADE COMMEMORATIVE JERSEY
"We The People" in the font of the Constitution across the chest. 1776–2026 on the back. Handcrafted in Chicago. An American story written into every thread.
Chicago, ILLINOIS, April 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- On July 4, 2026, the United States turns 250 years old. One Chicago-area company decided the occasion called for something made by hand, in the USA.
The Original America 250 Heritage Jersey by Catholic Imprint
Catholic Imprint, a Chicago-area evangelization ministry and American goods manufacturer, has released the America 250 Heritage Baseball Jersey — a limited-edition commemorative jersey handcrafted in Chicago, Illinois, with a portion of proceeds from every sale donated to charity.
"America’s 250th birthday only comes once, and we wanted to mark it the right way — something made by hand, in this country, by American workers who still believe that how you make something is part of what it means," said J.P. Kaplan, co-founder of Catholic Imprint and a first-generation American. "This jersey is our contribution to the moment. We hope people wear it, display it, and pass it down."
The jersey features “We The People” rendered in the style and font of the United States Constitution across the chest, America 250 1776–2026 on the back, and the Washington, D.C. skyline — the U.S. Capitol and Washington Monument — along the bottom hem. The sleeves feature the stars and stripes of the American flag. Each jersey is handcrafted in Chicago using full dye sublimation construction, a process that embeds the design directly into the fabric so it won’t crack, peel, or fade. The jersey carries no team logos and no MLB marks — a pure American tribute, available in sizes S through 4XL.
A portion of proceeds from every sale is donated to American charities. The jersey is also available for organizational fundraising — parishes, schools, civic groups, and community organizations interested in carrying the America 250 Heritage Baseball Jersey as a fundraising product are invited to contact Catholic Imprint directly.
The America 250 Heritage Baseball Jersey retails from $55.76 and is available now at america250jersey.com.
Skyline of Washington DC is shown on the back.
