Pet store t-shirts are the entry-level SKU every shop needs. Staff wear them through summer shifts, dog-mom customers pick them up at checkout, and they double as adoption-event giveaways.

What to Print on a Pet Store Tee
Three layouts that sell well:
- Logo only, center or left chest: clean, brand-forward, easy to wear under a vest or apron
- Shop wordmark on the front, paw graphic on back: more design-forward, sells well at adoption events
- Dog mom or pet parent wordmark + shop name in small text on sleeve: niche identity with the shop tag
Skip dense graphics on the front of staff tees. Customers should be able to read the shop name from across the aisle.

Pet Store Tee Pricing for Retail
| Tee | VIP base | Retail price | Margin |
|---|
| Airlume Athletic Tee | $19.88 | $28 | $8.12 |
| Women's Favorite Tee | $19.88 | $30 | $10.12 |
| Premium CVC Jersey Tee | $24.88 | $35 | $10.12 |
| Oversized Boxy Crop Tee | $24.88 | $36 | $11.12 |
Most shops set tee retail at $28 to $36. That stays under the psychological threshold for impulse buys at checkout.
Bulk vs No-Minimum Ordering
Some shops still want to bulk-order for a big event. The same per-unit pricing applies whether you order one or one hundred. Common quantities:
- Three tees: shop sample set on display
- Twelve tees: small adoption-event giveaway batch
- Fifty tees: grand-opening capsule
- One hundred plus: annual community event, on-the-rack sales inventory
If you want the customer to do the ordering and you to skip inventory entirely, that is the default Pro Shops setup. Customers buy individually, shirts ship from US partners directly to them.
Start With Three Tee SKUs
