Spirit Wear Frequently Asked Questions
ONLINE STORES & FUNDRAISING
How much does it cost to set up an online spiritwear store?
We offer our online spiritwear stores for fundraising at no upfront cost to your school or organization. There are no hidden hosting fees or inventory risks. You simply select the items you want to offer, and we handle the payment processing and order fulfillment, allowing your group to focus entirely on promoting the sale and raising funds.
How do we receive the fundraising profits from our store?
Once your store closing date has passed and all orders are processed, we calculate your total earnings based on the margins set for your items. We then issue a single fundraising check or electronic payment directly to your school, PTO, or booster club along with a detailed sales report.
Can we keep our online spiritwear store open year-round?
Yes. While many schools prefer short-term "flash stores" to create urgency and simplify distribution, we can also provide permanent storefront options. This allows parents and alumni to purchase gear whenever they need it, providing a consistent stream of revenue for your program.
How are orders delivered to the students and parents?
You can choose between two primary distribution methods. We can bulk-ship the entire order to your school, individually bagged by student name for easy distribution, or we can offer direct-to-home shipping so customers receive their gear right at their doorstep.
Is there a limit to how many items we can offer in our store?
While there is no strict limit, we recommend you start with our curated selection of about 150 items. This prevents "decision paralysis" for your buyers and ensures the most popular items get the highest engagement, resulting in a more successful fundraising outcome.
DESIGN, QUALITY, & BRANDS
Can you help us design a new logo or mascot for our gear?
We can help. Whether you have a rough sketch or need a complete brand refresh, our design team specializes in creating retail-quality graphics for schools. We ensure your mascot and typography are optimized for both screen printing and embroidery, giving your community a polished look that students are excited to wear.
What brands of apparel do you offer for school spiritwear?
We provide a wide range of options from industry-leading brands including Richardson, Nike, Under Armour, New Era, and Gildan. This allows you to offer everything from budget-friendly cotton tees for field day to premium performance tech-fleece for coaches and parents.
Will the colors of the apparel match our official school colors?
We take color matching seriously. Our team works with specific Pantone colors to ensure your screen printing and embroidery threads align with your school's established branding. We provide digital proofs for approval before any production begins to ensure accuracy.
What type of decoration methods do you use?
Depending on the garment and your budget, we utilize professional screen printing, high-stitch-count embroidery, 3D puff embroidery for hats, and heat-applied vinyl for individual names and numbers. We select the best method to ensure durability and a high-end finish.
Do you provide samples so we can see the quality before we order?
Yes. We understand that feeling the fabric and seeing the fit is important for committees. We can provide blank samples of our most popular hoodies, tees, and hats so your team can verify the quality before committing to a full store or bulk order.
QUESTIONS ABOUT ORDERING
What are the minimum order requirements for custom school gear?
We offer flexible solutions to fit any size group. While our online fundraising stores often have no individual minimums per customer, bulk orders for events like field day or staff shirts require a minimum of 12 pieces. We work with you to choose the right production method to keep your costs low and your margins high.
What is the typical turnaround time for spiritwear orders?
Once your order window closes or your bulk proof is approved, most orders are produced and shipped within two to three weeks. We provide clear timelines at the start of your project so you can coordinate your distribution dates with school events or sports seasons.
Do you offer youth, adult, and plus sizes?
Yes. Most of our apparel lines include a full range of sizes from Youth SM through Adult 4XL. We strive to offer inclusive sizing options so that every student, parent, and faculty member can find gear that fits comfortably and looks great.
How do you handle individual names or numbers on the back of shirts?
We can easily add personalization to your spiritwear. During the online store setup or bulk ordering process, you can opt to allow customers to enter their last name or jersey number, which we then apply using high-quality heat-pressed vinyl that won't crack or peel.
What happens if an item is out of stock from the manufacturer?
In the rare event of a supply chain issue, we immediately notify you and offer a comparable replacement of equal or greater quality. We monitor inventory levels daily during live store windows to minimize any potential disruptions to your fundraising timeline.
