Sports apparel wholesale suppliers and athletic apparel wholesale distributors typically sell in bulk lots of one style at a time. A branded resale shop does not need to pick just one style. This runs through which products from the Bear Grips Pro Shops catalog work best for a new apparel resale business, in what order to add them, and where the margin is strongest.
| Product | Brand | VIP base | Suggested retail |
|---|---|---|---|
| Airlume cotton athletic tee | Bear Grips | $19.88 | $26.88-$29.88 |
| Performance workout tank | Bella+Canvas | $19.88 | $27.88 |
| Men's moisture-wicking tee | Sport-Tek | $23.86 | $32.88 |
| Comfort Soft hoodie | Bear Grips | $36.88 | $49.88 |
| Signature seamless leggings | Bear Grips | $54.88 | $69.88 |
| Men's performance training shorts | Bear Grips | $44.88 | $56.88 |
| Embroidered snapback hat | Yupoong | $29.86 | $36.86 |
Tees and tanks carry the lowest base prices in the catalog, which keeps the retail price accessible for a new brand with no existing customer base. Volume tends to come first from these two categories, and the margin, while smaller per unit than a hoodie, adds up fastest because they sell the most often.
Bear Grips Pro Shops: Custom Apparel for Your Team. No Minimums. Free Shipping.Once a shop has some traffic, hoodies ($36.88-$45.88 base), joggers ($40.88-$48.88 base), and leggings ($54.88 base) carry the strongest dollar margin per unit. These are usually the second wave of products a reseller adds once the tee and tank lineup proves the design sells.
Hats run $25.86 to $29.86 at VIP base, whether printed or embroidered. They ship light, appeal to a slightly different buyer than apparel alone, and work well as a second item added to an order. See gym wear wholesale sourcing options for how gym and fitness sellers specifically use hats alongside tees.
The free plan caps live products at 3, which is enough to test a single design across a tee, a tank, and a hat. Self-Service VIP ($59/mo) opens up to 200 live products, room enough for a full fitness, athletic, or activewear resale lineup across multiple designs and colors. Most resellers who start on the free plan upgrade once the first design proves it sells.
