"Gym apparel affiliate program" and "gym clothing affiliate program" are common searches from people who assume they need to find a clothing brand willing to pay a commission. Bear Grips runs a different kind of gym apparel affiliate program: instead of promoting someone else's clothing line, an affiliate refers other gyms, studios, and coaches to start their own branded shop, and earns a recurring commission on that vendor's subscription and unit sales. Knowing exactly what a referred vendor can sell is part of making that pitch.
Yes. Every Bear Grips signup, free or paid, includes an affiliate link the same day the shop is created. Full mechanics on how the commission works are in our affiliate program overview. This post focuses on the other half of the picture: the actual gym apparel catalog a referred vendor gets access to, since showing a prospect what they could sell is often the fastest way to close a referral.
| Category | Examples | VIP base price |
|---|---|---|
| Tees | Airlume Cotton Tee, Premium Cotton V-Neck | $19.88 to $25.88 |
| Tanks | Performance Workout Tank, Racerback Tank | $19.88 to $25.88 |
| Hoodies | Comfort Soft, Classic Zip-Up, Champion Performance | $36.88 to $45.88 |
| Crewnecks | Perfect Soft Crewneck, Champion Crewneck | $34.88 to $41.88 |
| Joggers and sweats | Midweight Performance Joggers, Pocket Sweatpants | $39.88 to $48.88 |
| Leggings and shorts | Signature Seamless Leggings, Athletic Shorts | $26.88 to $54.88 |
| Sports bra | Padded Sports Bra | $45.88 |
| Hats | Snapback, rope hat, 5-panel | $25.86 to $29.86 |
All of it ships free to the buyer with no minimum order, whether the referred vendor sells one piece a month or a hundred.
Bear Grips Pro Shops: Custom Apparel for Your Team. No Minimums. Free Shipping.The plan a referred vendor picks controls how much of that catalog goes live:
A prospect deciding between plans is really deciding how much of that product table they want live at once. See the full apparel affiliate programs buyers guide for how this compares to brand affiliate programs that only offer a single commission on someone else's clothing.
Affiliates can share a 10% discount code with a prospect, which gives them a reason to sign up now instead of bookmarking the idea. Pairing that code with a quick look at the product table above (tees from $19.88, hoodies from $36.88) tends to land better than describing the commission structure first. Most prospects want to see what they would actually be selling before they think about the affiliate math.
Tees from $19.88, hoodies from $36.88, no minimum order. Sign up free and get your affiliate link the same day.
Start FreeLive product count depends on the plan: 3 on Free, up to 200 on Self-Service VIP, and up to 250 on Done-For-You VIP. All three plans draw from the same catalog.
No. The $1 per unit bonus is flat across the catalog, regardless of which product sells.
The 10% subscription commission recalculates against whatever the vendor pays each month, so an upgrade from Free to a paid plan increases the affiliate's subscription commission going forward.
Yes. The full product catalog with pricing is public, which makes it easy to walk a prospect through what they could sell before asking them to commit.
