Bulk Fleece Sweatpants Without the Bulk Order: How No-Minimum Printing Works
- A true wholesale fleece order requires a minimum unit count per style and color, paid upfront.
- Single-piece printing removes the minimum entirely: one pair or a hundred pairs cost the same per unit.
- Fleece sweatpants and joggers across the catalog run $39.88 to $48.88 at VIP base price, no bulk discount required to hit that number.
- There is no leftover inventory risk since nothing is printed before it sells.
Searches for bulk fleece sweatpants and wholesale fleece sweatsuits usually come from someone trying to avoid paying retail for a dozen or more pairs at once for a team, staff, or gym membership drop. The traditional path is a wholesale blank supplier plus a local printer, both with their own minimums. There is a second path that skips the minimum altogether: single-piece print on demand through a Bear Grips Pro Shop. Here is how the two compare.
How a Traditional Wholesale Fleece Order Works
A wholesale fleece sweatpant order usually means committing to a case quantity, often 12, 24, or 48 units per style and color, paid before any of it sells. The per-unit price drops as the order size grows, which is the entire appeal of "cheap fleece pants" and "wholesale fleece sweatsuits" searches. The tradeoff: money tied up in a closet full of sweatpants until every size and color sells through, and a second bill if you guessed wrong on sizing.
The Single-Piece Alternative
Every fleece sweatpant and jogger in the Bear Grips Pro Shops catalog prints one unit at a time when a customer orders it. There is no case minimum, no upfront purchase, and no unsold inventory. The catalog carries five bottoms styles:
| Style | Brand | VIP base |
|---|---|---|
| Women's Wave Wash Sweatpants | Independent Trading Co. | $39.88 |
| Men's Pocket Sweatpants | Jerzees | $40.88 |
| Men's Open Bottom Sweatpants | Jerzees | $40.88 |
| Men's Midweight Performance Joggers | Independent Trading Co. | $40.88 |
| Unisex Premium Fleece Jogger | Cotton Heritage | $48.88 |
These VIP base prices apply whether one pair sells this month or fifty, since there is no bulk discount tier to unlock and no bulk minimum to clear first.

A gym ordering 20 pairs of branded fleece sweatpants for staff faces two paths:
- Wholesale route: pay upfront for 20 blanks plus a print run minimum, often with a size-mix guess built in before anyone has tried anything on.
- Print-on-demand route: each staff member orders their exact size individually, or the owner places 20 separate single-unit orders. Total per-unit cost matches the VIP base price shown above, with zero risk of ordering the wrong size mix.
For twenty pairs at $40.88 VIP base, the print-on-demand route runs $817.60 with no unsold sizes left over, compared to a wholesale order where a wrong size guess means reordering or eating the loss.
When a True Wholesale Order Still Makes Sense
If a business is ordering thousands of units of one exact style, one exact color, one exact size, in a single print run for a fixed event, wholesale pricing can beat single-piece pricing at that scale. For everyday gym, studio, and small business merch, where sizes and colors vary by customer and repeat sales trickle in over months, single-piece printing removes the guesswork entirely.
