Custom Racing Crew Shirts

What Makes a Racing Crew Shirt Different

Racing crew shirts are purpose-built for track environments. They need to hold up through long race days, handle the physical demands of pit work, and present a clean, professional image in front of sponsors from the first lap to the last. Off-the-shelf polo shirts and generic branded tees do not deliver this — they fade, wrinkle, and lose their structure after a few race weekends.

Moisture-wicking polyester construction

EPIC crew shirts are built from lightweight, breathable polyester with moisture-wicking properties. On a hot race day in the pits — with engines running, sun overhead, and crew members moving fast between tasks — a shirt that manages heat and moisture makes a meaningful difference in comfort and appearance. The shirts retain their structure and colour through repeated wash cycles and full race seasons.

Dye sublimation printing

Every EPIC crew shirt is produced using dye sublimation — the same process used on EPIC’s custom racing suits. Sublimation bonds the ink directly into the polyester fibres rather than applying it on top, which means the design cannot peel, crack, or fade regardless of washing or wear. Full-colour graphics across the entire shirt surface are possible, including gradients, photo-quality sponsor logos, and complex multi-colour designs. The result looks as sharp at the end of the season as it did on opening day.

Men’s, women’s, and youth sizing

EPIC crew shirts are available in men’s, women’s, and youth sizes. Teams that want a fully unified look across all crew members — regardless of age or build — can order a complete set from a single design file. Women’s and youth sizes follow standard size charts. Men’s EPIC crew shirts run approximately one size larger than traditional sizing — if you normally wear a men’s large, a men’s medium will likely fit well. Contact the team if you have sizing questions before ordering.

Custom Design — Built Around Your Brand

Every EPIC crew shirt starts with your design brief. There are no stock templates to choose from and no fixed colourways — the shirt is built around your team’s colours, sponsor logos, and visual identity from the ground up.

Matching your race suit and team kit

If you already have an EPIC race suit, the crew shirts are built to match it. The same colour references and design files used for the driver’s suit become the starting point for the crew shirts, so every member of the team — from the driver to the pit crew to the spotters — is wearing a coordinated, professional look. This consistency matters when sponsors are evaluating their return on investment from team branding.

Sponsor logo integration

EPIC crew shirts are designed to showcase sponsor logos prominently. Front, back, sleeves, and collar areas are all available for sponsor placement, and logos are reproduced at full resolution through dye sublimation — no compression artifacts, no colour shift, no size limitations. Sponsors notice the difference between a shirt with their logo professionally presented and one where it has been applied as an afterthought.

No minimum order

EPIC does not require a minimum order quantity for crew shirts. Whether you need shirts for a two-person crew or a 20-person team, the process is the same. This makes EPIC an accessible option for club-level teams and independent racers who want professional-quality crew apparel without committing to bulk orders.

Who Orders Custom Crew Shirts from EPIC Racewear

Race teams — oval, drag, road racing

Crew shirts are standard equipment for any team running at a sanctioned event. Most series do not mandate specific crew apparel certification — unlike driver suits — but the visual impact of a uniformly dressed pit crew is significant. EPIC produces crew shirts for teams competing in NASCAR Pinty’s Series, NHRA, dirt oval, asphalt oval, late model, modified, road racing, and endurance categories across Canada and the United States.

Track promoters and event staff

Track promoters running sanctioned events need staff who are visually identifiable and professionally presented. EPIC produces custom crew shirts for track staff, corner workers, registration teams, and event management crews. Shirts can be coordinated with EPIC’s custom canopies and trailer curtains to create a fully branded event environment.

Safety teams

Fire suppression crews and safety teams operating at sanctioned events frequently wear custom crew shirts as part of their standard uniform alongside SFI-rated suits and equipment. EPIC’s safety team apparel covers crew shirts for safety team applications with the same customization options available to race teams.

Sponsors and corporate partners

Corporate sponsors activating at race events often want branded crew shirts for their staff and brand ambassadors. EPIC produces sponsor-branded crew shirts that match the team’s overall visual identity, giving sponsors a professional, trackside presence. Shirts can be ordered in any quantity and delivered ahead of race weekend activations.

Karting teams and junior programs

Crew shirts are increasingly common in competitive karting, particularly at the regional and national series level. EPIC produces crew shirts for karting programs at all levels — from junior club teams to national Rotax Max Challenge competitors. Shirts can be coordinated with EPIC’s custom karting suits for a complete team presentation.

Ordering Custom Crew Shirts from EPIC Racewear

The ordering process

Ordering starts with a design conversation. Contact the EPIC team with your team colours, sponsor logos (in vector format if available), and any design reference or inspiration you want to share. EPIC’s design team produces a digital mockup for your approval before production begins. Revisions are made until the design is right. Nothing goes into production until you have signed off on the design.

Turnaround and shipping

EPIC crew shirts are produced in Walkerton, Ontario and ship across Canada and to the United States. Lead times vary based on current production volume — contact the team directly for current estimates, particularly ahead of race season or a specific event. Teams ordering crew shirts alongside race suits, canopies, or other EPIC gear can often coordinate shipment to arrive together.

Reorders

Once your design is on file with EPIC, reorders are straightforward. There is no repeat setup fee, and shirts can be ordered in any additional quantity as your team grows or as existing shirts need replacing. File updates — adding a new sponsor, changing a crew member’s name — are handled quickly.

Complete Your Team’s Look with EPIC Racewear

Crew shirts are one part of a complete team presentation package. EPIC Racewear builds every component of that package in-house.

Custom racing suits certified to SFI 3.2A/1, SFI 3.2A/5, SFI 3.4, and FIA 8856-2018 put the driver in a fully branded kit that coordinates with the crew shirts. Every suit is built to the same design file.

Custom race canopies — in 10×10, 10×15, and 10×20 sizes — bring the team’s branding overhead in the paddock, creating a professional pit setup that sponsors and media recognize immediately.

Custom trailer curtains extend the branding to the hauler, covering the trailer sides and rear with full-colour dye-sublimated graphics that match the rest of the team’s visual identity.

All of these are built by a single Canadian manufacturer, coordinated from a single design brief, and shipped from Walkerton, Ontario. Contact the EPIC Racewear team to start your crew shirt order or to discuss a complete team branding package.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the minimum order quantity for custom crew shirts? There is no minimum order quantity. EPIC Racewear produces custom crew shirts in any quantity, from single shirts to full team orders. Whether you need two shirts for a two-person crew or twenty for a full team and sponsor staff, the process and quality are the same.

How long does it take to receive custom crew shirts? Lead times vary based on current production volume. Contact the EPIC Racewear team directly for current turnaround estimates. If you have a specific race or event deadline, mention it when you reach out so the team can advise accordingly.

Can I add sponsor logos to my crew shirts? Yes. Dye sublimation allows unlimited sponsor logo placement across the front, back, sleeves, and collar areas. Logos are reproduced at full resolution with no size limitations or colour restrictions. Provide logo files in vector format (AI, EPS, or high-resolution PDF) where possible for the sharpest result.

Do crew shirts have to match my race suit? They do not have to, but coordinating crew shirts with your race suit creates the most professional team presentation. If you have an existing EPIC race suit, the design files are already on file and can be used as the basis for your crew shirts. If you are ordering both for the first time, both are built from the same design brief.

Do EPIC crew shirts ship to the United States? Yes. EPIC Racewear ships custom crew shirts from Walkerton, Ontario to all Canadian provinces and to the United States. Many EPIC crew shirt customers are US-based teams who want Canadian-manufactured quality with direct shipping.
