Adult gymnastics apparel is the wardrobe that adult athletes actually wear before, during, and after class. Custom tees and tanks for the floor, leggings and shorts for tumbling, hoodies and sweatpants for cool-down, sports bras for support, hats and polos for coaches. Bear Grips Pro Shops prints every piece on demand with no minimum order, so an adult program with 15 students can order one shirt at a time at the same price as a 500 athlete program. Here is the full adult gymnastics apparel guide.

The leotard question, answered up front
Adult gymnastics programs often ask about custom leotards. We do not produce competition leotards. Leotards are a cut and sew product with specialized fabric, lining, and construction that sits outside the print on demand catalog. What we do make: every other piece a gymnast wears outside the leotard. The adult gymnastics leotards alternative guide walks through the program tees, leggings, sports bras, and warm up wear that work for adult gymnasts.
Bear Grips Pro Shops: Custom Apparel for Your Team. No Minimums. Free Shipping.Why per piece print fits small adult programs
Adult gymnastics class sizes are usually 8 to 25 students. Traditional custom apparel demands 24, 48, or 72 piece minimums per design before unit cost makes sense. Print on demand removes the minimum: one shirt at a time, same per piece price, individual size and name per order. The program lead does not have to forecast inventory, collect upfront fees, or guess sizing. Students self order their shirt in their size. See the no minimum class shirts guide for the operational details.
