Framing Sports Jerseys: How to Preserve Your Game-Day Memories

Are you a sports fan? Framing sports jerseys is a great way to display your team spirit! At Capricorn Framing in San Francisco, we specialize in custom framing solutions that preserve the integrity of your sports memorabilia while creating a stunning display.
A sports jersey is more than just a piece of clothing—it’s a symbol of team spirit, personal achievement, and unforgettable moments. Whether it’s a signed jersey from your favorite player, a championship-winning season keepsake, or a high school or college uniform, framing your sports jersey is the best way to protect and showcase it for years to come.
Why Frame a Sports Jersey?
Framing sports jerseys is a great way to commemorate special events. For example, the recent Super Bowl LIX on February 9, 2025, saw the Philadelphia Eagles triumph over the Kansas City Chiefs with a final score of 40-22. Just a week later, San Francisco hosted the NBA All-Star Weekend from February 14-16, 2025, at the Chase Center, featuring a new tournament-style format that brought fresh energy to the event.
These back-to-back marquee events undoubtedly left fans with unforgettable memories and cherished memorabilia. Framing your sports jerseys is an excellent way to commemorate these historic moments and showcase your passion. It’s also a way to preserve jerseys and protect them from damage.
Sports jerseys are made from delicate materials that can fade, stretch, or deteriorate if not properly stored. Custom framing provides:
- Protection from dust, moisture, and UV damage
- A professional display that enhances any space, from game rooms to offices
- Preservation of sentimental value for personal or collectible jerseys
- A great conversation piece that celebrates your sports passion
Framing Sports Jerseys: Our Approach
At Capricorn Framing, we take special care to ensure that your jersey is framed in a way that preserves its integrity while making it visually striking. Here’s how we do it:
Shadowbox Framing for Depth and Impact
A shadowbox frame adds depth to your display, allowing the jersey to maintain its shape without being compressed. We use archival-quality mounting to secure the fabric without adhesives that could cause damage over time.
UV-Protective Glass for Long-Lasting Colors
Sports jerseys often feature bright team colors and signatures that can fade if exposed to light. Our UV-protective glass shields your jersey from harmful rays while reducing glare, so every detail remains crisp and vibrant.
Custom Matting to Complement Team Colors
We offer a range of matting options to highlight your jersey’s colors and design. Whether you prefer a bold contrast or a sleek, minimalist look, our design team will help you choose the perfect combination.
Floating vs. Traditional Mounting
- Floating Mount – The jersey appears suspended within the frame, creating a dynamic and dimensional look.
- Traditional Mount – The jersey is carefully folded and secured for a clean, structured display.
Personalization Options for Framing Sports Jerseys
Want to make your framed jersey even more special? We specialize in framing all sorts of sports memorabilia. We can add:
- Nameplates and Engraved Plaques to include player names, stats, or game details
- Photos, Tickets, or Medals to tell a fuller story of the game-day experience
- Team Logos and Graphics to enhance the overall design
