Custom police department shirts from Bear Grips Pro Shops start at $19.88 per shirt with no minimum order and free US shipping. Whether you need one new-hire shirt or a hundred for an annual community event, your department logo prints clean on premium cotton or performance tees and ships in about a week, with no upfront bulk commitment.
Duty uniforms are regulated and standardized. Custom shirts fill the space around the duty uniform: shift wear, off-duty department pride, community engagement, and special unit identification. A clean department tee with the agency seal and unit name builds visible identity at neighborhood watch meetings, recruitment fairs, and youth outreach programs in ways a standard polyester duty shirt never can.
Custom shirts also work as a fundraising tool that runs year-round. Family members, retirees, civilian supporters, and Police Benevolent Association members regularly buy department gear. A shop that stays open all year collects passive income for the benevolent fund without anyone running a manual order list or storing inventory in a precinct closet.
Print-on-demand reverses the friction of traditional bulk orders. Each shirt ships directly to the buyer in about a week, no minimum quantity, no upfront commitment, no leftover sizes in the wrong color.
The right shirt depends on what it is used for. Top picks from the Bear Grips catalog for police agency apparel:

Bear Grips Pro Shops: Custom Apparel for Your Team. No Minimums. Free Shipping.Police department shirt designs read best when they are bold and uncomplicated. A department seal on the left chest with the agency name arched across the back photographs cleanly for press, body cam reviews, and social media. Crowded text or busy gradients get lost on smaller print areas and look amateur next to a clean duty uniform.
Proven design approaches:
If your department seal needs cleanup or vector conversion before it prints sharp on apparel, the free design tools handle background removal and resizing without sending your art to a third-party designer.
Many departments order separate shirt runs for each shift rotation. Shift-specific tees create a fast visual identifier during change-of-watch and joint operations. Common formats are color-coded shirts by shift (A-Watch, B-Watch, C-Watch) or shift text printed under the agency seal in a secondary color.
Tactical training tees for defensive tactics, firearms qualification, and academy classes typically use a moisture-wicking performance tee. The Sport-Tek Men's Moisture-Wicking Tee is the standard choice because it survives a full day of tactical movement without staying soaked. For long-form classroom training, a softer cotton or cotton-poly tee like the Airlume or Next Level CVC is more comfortable.
Off-duty department apparel is its own category. Officers wearing department pride shirts to the gym, on weekends, or at family events extend agency visibility into the community without any uniform-policy concerns. The premium cotton options in the catalog start at $19.88 base and ship in colors that work for both training and casual wear.
Setting up a department shop on Bear Grips Pro Shops takes minutes, not weeks:
Each buyer orders directly through the shop, picks size and color, and shirts ship to their home address. Your department or benevolent fund collects the margin between retail and base cost. No inventory in the supply closet, no precinct collection runs, no post-office trips.
For larger agencies that prefer a fully managed shop, the Done-For-You VIP plan at $109/month assigns a dedicated shop advisor who builds the catalog, writes product descriptions, and prices each item based on actual sales data. That works well for departments running multiple unit shops (Patrol, K9, SWAT, Traffic) under one agency umbrella.
For internal bulk orders where the department covers the cost (academy class shirts, agency-wide training tees), the same shop link can be used as an internal procurement tool by setting the retail price equal to base cost.
No upfront cost, no minimum order, no inventory. Set up your agency shop in minutes and start selling custom department apparel to officers, families, and supporters.
