Unisex tees fit a male torso well. On a female torso, the boxy shape adds bulk, the sleeve hits at an awkward spot, and the neck rides high. Most taproom guests notice the bad fit and pass, even if they like the brand.
The result is a merch lineup that converts at 1 to 3 percent on male guests and under 1 percent on female and non-binary guests. The fix is not to replace unisex tees, but to add fit-specific options alongside them.

Bear Grips Pro Shops: Custom Apparel for Your Team. No Minimums. Free Shipping.The trap is listing 20 products and overwhelming customers. The solution is pairing each unisex flagship with one women's-cut counterpart:
This keeps the storefront clean while signaling inclusive sizing. Customers can find their fit in 30 seconds without scrolling through 20 SKUs.
Price women's-cut tees at the same retail as the unisex tee, even though the base cost is the same. This signals that fit options are not premium add-ons, they are part of the core lineup.
Cropped tees, cropped hoodies, and scoop muscle tanks can be priced $4 to $6 above the regular tee. The product itself is more specialized, the customer expects the slight premium, and the higher margin helps offset the lower per-product volume.
On the shop merchandising side, lead with a women's fit option in your storefront hero rotation. The signal travels fast: customers see fit-inclusive sizing and trust the brand more, even if they personally wear unisex.
