Bear Grips Pro ShopsPlus-Size Lifeguard and Aquatics Staff Apparel
- Lifeguard shirt plus size and plus size lifeguard sweatshirt are steady searches from pools, water parks, and aquatics programs.
- Rescue-rated swimwear and safety gear are not printed here. Deck and staff apparel is.
- A three-piece lineup covers sun-exposed deck hours and cool morning or evening shifts.
- Every staff member orders their own size from one shop link, no bulk buy required.
What This Catalog Does Not Print for Aquatics Staff
Rescue swimwear, certified guard trunks, and any safety-rated flotation or rescue gear should come from an aquatics safety supplier, not a print-on-demand apparel shop. Keep that purchase separate. What belongs here is everything a guard or pool staffer wears off the actual rescue uniform: the staff tee, the sun-shirt layer, the pre-shift hoodie, and the hat.

Seasonal Staffing Apparel for Pools and Water Parks
Aquatics programs hire in waves before summer and often outfit a large staff on a tight seasonal budget. Because there is no minimum order, a facility can list the staff shop once and let each new hire order their own size the week they are onboarded, rather than pre-buying a guessed size run before the roster is finalized. See the running apparel guide for more on the same moisture-wicking fabric used across outdoor sun-exposed roles.
Sizing Note for Staff Apparel
Check the size chart on each staff piece before assuming the whole lineup runs the same range. Deck staff come in every build and age, from teenage summer hires to adult year-round employees, so a facility that only checks one product's chart risks under-ordering for part of its own team. Build the shop at Bear Grips Pro Shops before the season starts.

Start FreeFrequently Asked Questions
Do you print guard swimwear or rescue trunks?
No. Rescue-rated swimwear and safety-certified gear should come from an aquatics safety supplier. This catalog covers staff tees, layers, and hats.
Whats the best piece for a full day on a sunny pool deck?
The Sport-Tek moisture-wicking long sleeve. Sun coverage plus sweat-wicking fabric for an eight-hour shift.
Can seasonal hires order their own size before the season starts?
Yes. There is no minimum order, so a facility can list the shop and let each new hire order individually as they are onboarded.
How fast do staff shirts arrive before opening day?
About a week from order to door, so order with a week or two of lead time before the pool opens.
