A cardio boxing studio can launch a branded apparel shop in under an hour with no inventory and no upfront cost. Members order direct, the platform handles printing and shipping, and the studio earns a margin on every piece. Here is the step-by-step setup with the launch lineup, pricing strategy, and first-60-day playbook.
The setup is mechanical:
Setup takes under an hour for most studios. Once configured, the rest of the launch is product selection and promotion.
The 10-12 piece launch lineup for a cardio boxing studio:
This covers the full in-class and post-class wardrobe. After 60 days of sales data, expand the lineup with colors of top sellers and drop underperformers. Quarterly themed drops layer on top.

| Product | Suggested Retail | Studio Margin |
|---|---|---|
| Athletic tank | $28-$35 | $8-$13 |
| Performance tee | $30-$38 | $10-$16 |
| Compression shorts | $32-$42 | $10-$18 |
| Pullover hoodie | $55-$68 | $16-$24 |
| Crewneck sweatshirt | $48-$60 | $13-$20 |
| Joggers | $45-$58 | $13-$20 |
| Snapback or rope hat | $32-$40 | $10-$15 |
Hoodies carry the highest margin. Tanks and tees carry the highest unit volume. A balanced lineup with both produces consistent monthly revenue.
The launch sequence that produces the strongest results:
Week before launch: Tease the shop in classes. Have instructors wear branded pieces in class. Post sneak peeks on Instagram. Announce launch date.
Launch day: Email the member list with the shop link. Post on every studio social channel. Run a launch promotion (10% off first orders, free sticker pack with hoodie purchase, member-only early access).
Weeks 2-4: Mention the shop at the end of every class. Highlight one product per week on Instagram. Get instructors to share their favorite piece.
Weeks 5-8: First themed drop. Pick a specific theme (a class name milestone, an instructor signature, a charity event) and produce a limited piece with a 14-day window.
Weeks 9-12: Review the data. Add colors of top sellers. Drop underperformers. Plan the next quarterly drop.
Studios that follow this playbook consistently see steady monthly revenue establish within 60-90 days. For the revenue math: cardio boxing studio merchandise revenue math.
