It's the piece youth basketball coaches, soccer coaches, and PE teachers order when they need practice jerseys that solve a specific problem: how do you divide a group of kids into two teams that can actually tell each other apart during a scrimmage, without buying two separate sets of shirts? The YST5000 is reversible. Same tank, one team wears it right side out, the other team flips it inside out, and you've got a two-color scrimmage running in under a minute. At around $9 MSRP, it's cheaper than buying two sets, more practical than any tie-on pinnie system, and it doubles as a real game or practice tank when you're not running drills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat \"reversible\" actually gets you\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReversibility on this tank isn't a marketing flourish. The construction is a real double-layer build: two independent mesh layers, individually hemmed, that both function as the outside surface when the tank is flipped one way or the other. The inside layer is a different color than the outside layer, which is what makes the two-team scrimmage work. Coaches at practice hand out YST5000s to a group of kids, split them into teams, tell half to wear them inside out, and now you have red versus blue on the same shirt inventory. When it's game time or practice is over, they wear it right side out with any team decoration you've printed on it. For a Little League basketball program, a youth soccer club running Saturday practice, a summer camp doing intramurals, or a school PE program that runs a lot of drills, this is the tool that makes the scrimmage happen without a stack of extra pinnies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePrint both sides, because both sides show\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe other thing the double-layer construction does is give you two independent decoration surfaces. Because both layers are individually hemmed and open at the sides, a decorator can print or heat-press on the inside layer without the ink bleeding through to the outside, and vice versa. What that means practically: you can put your team logo on one color side and your team name on the other, or your team logo on both sides but in coordinating colors, or numbers on one side and a sponsor logo on the other. When the tank is flipped, both decorations still read correctly. Most tanks don't let you do this. The YST5000 was engineered for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOpen-holed mesh, in plain language\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpen-holed mesh is exactly what it sounds like: the fabric knit leaves visible holes between the yarns rather than a tight, closed weave. The purpose is airflow. In basketball, in wrestling practice, in a hot gym in July, at a summer soccer scrimmage in mid-afternoon heat, an open-hole mesh moves substantially more air across the skin than a solid interlock or jersey. It's the reason mesh tanks are the default for basketball specifically. The YST5000 is 3.4 oz of 100% polyester in this open-holed construction, which puts it at the light end of Sport-Tek's performance lineup (the closed-weave Competitor tees run 3.8 oz). The tradeoff is that mesh doesn't offer much sun protection (you can see through it), and it doesn't hide much of what's underneath, so it's built as a purpose-specific athletic piece rather than an all-purpose top.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe PosiCharge story, briefly\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe YST5000 uses Sport-Tek's PosiCharge color-locking treatment, the same fabric technology that anchors the rest of the Sport-Tek Competitor family. In brief, it's a treatment applied to the polyester yarn that helps the fiber hold dye, so the color of both the tank itself and any decoration printed on it stays vibrant through repeated washing rather than fading toward gray. For a reversible practice jersey that's going to see dozens of washes over a season, PosiCharge is the reason the two colors of the tank still look distinctly different in November instead of fading toward a single muddy shade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSizing and construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYouth sizing runs XS through XL. The construction is 3.4 oz open-hole 100% polyester mesh, double-layer with the two colors on the two sides, individually hemmed at each layer for the reversible functionality, tear-away label. There's no drawcord and there's no rib or cuff finish (it's a tank, not a tee). The neckline and armholes are open athletic cuts sized for youth active range of motion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFamily and matching\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the adult version in the same fabric and construction, the \u003ca title=\"Sport-Tek ST5000 PosiCharge Reversible Mesh Tank\" href=\"\/products\/sport-tek-posicharge-reversible-mesh-tank-st5000\"\u003eST5000 PosiCharge Reversible Mesh Tank\u003c\/a\u003e is the coach-and-adult-league pair, running adult XS through 4XL.
