Re: Bumper Material

Try Seattle Fabrics.
since the inception of bumpers and covers, we've used them as suggested way back when.

Re: Bumper Material

without digging for my invoice, just call them and tell them you're a FIRST team.
I dont even know myself as they have my account on file, and I just order the same thing as previous years.
They know which type of red and blue covers as well as many teams order from them.

Re: Bumper Material

Last year we received a donation of 600x300 Denier polyester from a local fabric wholesaler. It worked very well for us and was pretty easy to sew.

Good Luck!
