Custom martial arts t-shirts for dojos are available with no minimum order through Bear Grips Pro Shops. Your school gets a free branded online store, students order individually, and every shirt ships from a US print facility in about a week. No upfront purchase, no inventory to manage, no screen-printing setup fees.
Traditional screen printing requires a minimum order of 12 to 48 pieces and upfront payment. For a school with students at different belt levels, different class schedules, and varying family budgets, collecting enough orders to hit a minimum is a recurring headache.
Print-on-demand removes that friction entirely. Your dojo store stays open year-round. A new white belt joins in March and wants a shirt. A parent wants to grab a hoodie for tournament day. A brown belt orders one for a sibling. Each order ships individually, directly to the buyer, with no coordination required from you.
The unit economics work well for quantities under 100 pieces. Above that, screen printing can be cheaper per unit, but you eliminate the inventory risk and the collection hassle entirely with the POD approach.
Not every shirt works equally well for active training. Here is what performs best in a dojo setting:
