Custom motorcycle club t-shirts start under $25 each with no minimum order at Bear Grips Pro Shops. One shirt for a prospect, a hundred for a rally, or anything in between. We handle printing and free shipping while you keep the club identity sharp. Here are the design ideas that sell best, the fabrics that hold up, and how to get a club shop running without upfront costs.
The designs that move in MC shops share one trait: they reference something specific to that club or community. Generic moto graphics get skipped. Here are the concepts that convert:
MC shirts need to hold up through rides, washes, and years of wear. The fabric choice shapes how the shirt ages and whether members actually wear it:
Airlume Cotton Athletic Tee: ring-spun cotton, the softest option in the catalog. Ink sits on top cleanly and the shirt keeps its shape after many washes. Best for the everyday club shirt members grab without thinking about it.
Next Level Premium CVC Jersey Tee: a cotton-poly blend that is slightly lighter than pure cotton but more durable for print longevity. Good middle-ground choice for a shirt that goes from a ride to a bar without looking like a gym shirt.
Men's Moisture-Wicking Tee (Sport-Tek): the performance option for riders who want something that breathes during longer rides. Works well for warm-weather rallies where members are in the sun all day.
Long Sleeve Cotton Shirt: the cold-weather club shirt. A long sleeve with the club graphic on the back is a different look than a short sleeve and sells alongside it in fall and winter months.
Most club shops carry the standard cotton tee as the primary shirt and add a long sleeve version of the same design. That doubles the catalog without any extra design work.
Bear Grips Pro Shops: Custom Apparel for Your Team. No Minimums. Free Shipping.A few print-specific rules that save headaches:
One design can run across multiple shirt colors with no additional work. A white-ink design on black shirts is the primary SKU. The same design in black ink on white shirts is a second SKU. Add a gray option and the club shop has three shirt versions from one graphic file.
Members often buy multiple colorways of a favorite design. A black tee for riding days and a white tee for wearing to work or casual outings. Adding color variants is one of the easiest ways to grow a club shop's revenue without new artwork.
For dark shirt designs, use white or light-colored ink. For light shirts, use black or dark ink. Avoid mid-tone inks on mid-tone shirts. The contrast is what makes the design readable across the room, which is exactly where a club shirt gets noticed.
A club shop at Bear Grips Pro Shops runs at no cost to the club. Members order directly, shirts arrive at their door in about a week, and the club earns a profit margin on every sale without handling inventory or fulfillment.
