Camo Mesh Shorts for Teams and Outdoor Apparel Brands
Quick Answer- Camo mesh shorts show up in searches from teams wanting a spirit-wear alternate color and from outdoor and hunting-adjacent apparel brands.
- Bear Grips prints custom camo patterns directly onto the mesh short blank, there is no separate pre-camo-printed fabric to source.
- Unlimited colors and design elements mean a custom camo print costs the same as a solid color.
- Outdoor and hunting-adjacent brands can build a full camo-themed line without a wholesale minimum.
Camo mesh shorts get searched by two very different buyers: a team or booster club wanting a camo alternate for a themed game night, and a small outdoor or hunting-adjacent apparel brand building a product line around the look. Both land on the same answer. Bear Grips does not stock a pre-printed camo fabric roll, it prints a custom camo design directly onto the standard mesh short blank, which means the pattern can be exactly what the brand wants rather than whatever a generic camo textile happens to offer.
Two Different Buyers, One Search Term
- Teams and booster clubs. A camo-themed game night or military appreciation game is common across youth and school sports, and a camo alternate short is a standard part of that.
- Outdoor and hunting-adjacent apparel brands. A small brand selling hunting, fishing, or rural lifestyle apparel wants camo as a core part of its everyday product line, not a one-off theme night.
How Custom Camo Printing Actually Works
The camo pattern is printed as part of the design file on the standard Athletic 7 inch Mesh Short ($26.88 VIP base), the same as any other graphic. There is no separate camo-fabric SKU to source or minimum order tied to a specific camo roll. A brand can use a classic woodland pattern, a digital pattern, or a custom colorway built around team or brand colors, all at the same base price.

Design Notes for a Clean Camo Print
Camo patterns are naturally busy, so keep the logo or team name simple and place it where it reads against the pattern rather than blending into it. A solid-color logo box behind the wordmark, or placing the mark on a solid-color waistband rather than directly on the camo field, keeps text legible without flattening the pattern.
Pricing for Outdoor and Hunting-Adjacent Brands
Camo product tends to carry a small premium over a solid color in the outdoor apparel space. A $30.88 VIP-plan build (Ladies 3 inch fitness short) or the $26.88 mesh short can retail in the same $32-$42 range as any specialty print, and single-piece printing means a new outdoor brand can test a camo pattern against a solid color without committing to a wholesale run of either.
