Youth Moisture-Wicking Tees for School and Team Uniforms

March 13, 2026 5 min read By Cameron Wells

Quick Answer

Bear Grips does not currently carry a youth-size moisture-wicking polo, only a youth moisture-wicking performance tee.
The youth moisture-wicking performance tee runs $28.95 free plan base, $23.88 VIP base, and works for boys and girls sizing.
It covers the same use cases most boys and girls polo searches are aimed at: school PE programs, youth sports, and summer camp.
Older teens who need a collared look can order the adult performance polo in a small size instead.

Frequently Asked Questions

A lot of searches for boys and girls moisture-wicking polo shirts are really searches for one thing: a durable, sweat-friendly shirt for a school program or a youth team. Bear Grips does not carry a youth polo today, so here is the honest, useful answer, plus the piece that actually solves the problem.

Why This Guide Leads With a Tee, Not a Polo

The moisture-wicking lineup at Bear Grips includes a youth tee but not a youth polo. Rather than stretch the truth, the more useful answer for school programs and youth teams is the youth moisture-wicking performance tee, which covers the same wicking need a polo would, just without a collar.

Where It Fits: School PE, Youth Sports, Summer Camp

School PE and athletic programs. A wicking tee holds up better than cotton through a full class period.
Youth sports leagues. Practice and warm-up wear for boys and girls teams alike.
Summer camp. Outdoor activity wear that dries faster than cotton between sessions.

For Older Teens Who Need a Collared Look

A high school program or older teen roster that specifically wants a collar can order the adult Sport-Tek performance polo in a small or extra-small size. See the men's polo guide for sizing details on that piece.

Ordering for a Full Roster

There is no minimum order, so a school or team can order exactly the number of tees needed, in a mix of boys and girls sizing, and add more later as rosters change. See the no-minimum ordering guide for how this works across a full team or class.
