Ultra Tech Performance Fabric

The Ultra Tech fabric is the defining feature of this Honig’s basketball referee shirt. Rather than using a conventional heavier uniform material, Ultra Tech is engineered for active performance.

The lightweight fabric helps reduce the feel of excess material while officials run the court. Its moisture-wicking and quick-drying properties make it particularly useful during extended games, tournaments and multiple assignments in the same day.

The result is a basketball officials jersey that balances professional appearance with lightweight performance.
