Next Level Tees for Team Building Days and Company Offsites

An offsite tee gets worn hiking, at a picnic table, or through a full day of team activities, not just for a group photo. That changes what "durable" and "comfortable" mean compared to an office swag tee. Here is how to pick a Next Level style for a team-building day, and what to add when the weather does not cooperate.

What an Offsite Tee Actually Needs

Between outdoor activities, group photos, and a full day of movement, an offsite tee needs to hold its shape and color through sweat and sun without feeling stiff. The right pick depends more on the day's activity level than on how the design looks on a screen.

The Honest Answer on Heavyweight Next Level Styles

Next Level does sell heavier-weight tee styles, but none are currently part of the Bear Grips Pro Shops catalog. For an active offsite, the 100% cotton Premium Cotton Crew Tee is the sturdiest in-catalog option, while the Men's Premium Triblend Crew Tee trades some durability for a softer, more comfortable all-day feel.

Layering for Outdoor or Cold-Weather Offsites

The Comfort Soft Hoodie ($36.88 VIP) layers directly over any Next Level tee, giving a team a warm option for a fall or winter offsite without switching brands or suppliers. The tee still shows underneath for group photos once the hoodie comes off.

One Design, Two Pieces

Using the same logo and placement on the tee and the hoodie keeps a team looking coordinated in every photo from the day, whether the hoodie is on or off. There is no separate setup fee for printing the same design across multiple product types.

Ordering for a Team Scattered Across Locations

For hybrid or multi-office teams meeting up for an offsite, each person can order their own tee and hoodie ahead of time, shipped directly to their home before travel, rather than one office coordinating a single bulk shipment to distribute on arrival.
