Old Way vs. Your New Pro Shop Way

Same three problems. Two very different answers.

Old Way
$2K to $5K
Bulk-Order Gamble
  • Inventory from past orders still in your office
  • XS, S, XL sit in the bin for months
  • Pieces go missing. You give the rest away
Your Pro Shop
$0 UPFRONT
No Inventory Ever
  • Member orders one, we print one
  • Zero cash tied up. Zero boxes to store
  • Profit hits your dashboard, not a bin
Old Way
3 WEEKS
To Reorder Anything
  • 24, 36 or 48-piece minimums per color
  • Charged per color, per placement, per design
  • Sold out of sizes or colors students want
  • Can't say yes without $2K + 3 weeks
Your Pro Shop
~1 WEEK
Door to Door
  • No minimums. Order 1 or 100, same price
  • Unlimited colors, designs, placements
  • Students pick size and color at checkout
  • USA printed and shipped free to their door
Old Way
2 WASHES
Until It's Cardboard
  • Print cracks, shirt stiffens, color fades
  • Students stop wearing it
  • You and your grade-level team reach for generic teacher tees
Your Pro Shop
50+ WASHES
Still Soft
  • Premium blanks: Bella+Canvas, Champion, Sport-Tek
  • Soft on day 1, soft after 50 washes
  • Coaches reach for the classroom hoodie, not the other brand

Teacher Reviews

Hear from elementary teachers running this today.

Quality, sizing, time. The three things every owner wants to know about, answered by the classroomes already running their apparel through us.

MR
Mike R.
Classroom Teacher
Q: DO THE ELEMENTARY TEACHER TEES AND SWEATSHIRTS HOLD UP TO 180 DAYS OF TEACHING?

"Third grade, full year of finger paint, glue sticks and lunchroom spills. The Etsy elementary teacher t shirts cracked at the collar by November. Bella+Canvas triblends and Next Level crewnecks through the Pro Shop held my classroom logo through every wash. Parents at pickup keep asking where I got the shirt. Now I send them the link."

JT
Jenna T.
Grade-Level Lead Teacher
Q: WHAT IF MY GRADE-LEVEL TEAM WANTS DIFFERENT SIZES?

"Used to order matching 4th grade team shirts on a bulk Custom Ink order. Always wrong size for the new long-term sub or the teammate in a women small. Now every teammate orders their own size and color from the link. Elementary teacher team shirts arrive at each teacher door before our spirit Friday."

RK
Ryan K.
Teacher Creator
Q: I TEACH FULL TIME AND I WANT A SIDE HUSTLE. WHO BUILDS THE STORE?

"Full-time third grade teacher, two kids at home, no time to learn an e-commerce platform. Done-For-You plan built my whole teacher apparel shop: classroom tees, funny teacher hoodies, grade-level team shirts, a back-to-school drop, a teacher appreciation collection. I send one design a month, they handle the rest. Cleared $1,200 in profit my first semester selling to other teachers."

Teacher & Classroom Questions

The questions we get asked most

Can I put my classroom name, grade level and custom elementary teacher shirt designs on tees, hoodies and embroidered hats?+

Yes. Every elementary teacher t shirt, hoodie, sweatshirt, crewneck and embroidered hat supports your classroom name, grade-level callout, classroom theme (rainbows, bookworms, jungle, space, sports), funny teacher wordmarks and "established" classroom year on the front, back, sleeve or chest. Custom elementary teacher apparel and elementary teacher shirt ideas built for solo teachers who want their own classroom brand instead of a generic teacher store tee. Unlimited design elements on one side, no per-color fee.

Do you make district-required daily uniforms or formal elementary teacher dress code attire (slacks, blouses, blazers)?+

No. Formal slacks, blouses, blazers and district-mandated dress-code attire come from work-wear retailers. What we make is the elementary teacher clothes side that actually goes on every day: elementary teacher t shirts, elementary teacher shirt designs, lightweight crewnecks for the chilly classroom, grade-level team hoodies, embroidered "Mrs. Lastname" or "Mr. Lastname" hats, sweatpants for indoor recess days, and dressy-casual Bella+Canvas polos that read as professional elementary teacher attire on parent-night days.

Can a grade-level team (4th grade, 5th grade, kindergarten team) all order matching elementary teacher team shirts?+

Yes. Drop your shop link in the grade-level team text chain, the staff Slack or the lounge bulletin. Each teacher on the team checks out their own size and color. Elementary teacher team shirts, elementary teacher shirt designs for spirit days, field day color-team tees and grade-level matching sweatshirts ship to each teacher door free in about a week. You never collect cash in the lounge, count sizes at recess, or stuff staff mailboxes with leftover shirts.

Can I sell elementary teacher shirts and elementary teacher clothing to other teachers as a side hustle on the same shop?+

Yes. Your shop is one branded URL. Build collections for your own classroom (Mrs. Smith Third Grade), a grade-level team line (4th Grade Team), a teacher-creator drop (funny teacher tees, teacher appreciation week tees, custom classroom shirts), a field day color collection and a spirit-week assortment. Other teachers and parents check out themselves. You collect profit per shirt directly in your dashboard. No inventory in the back of your classroom closet.

Will the elementary teacher tees, hoodies and sweatshirts hold up after a year of recess duty, lunch spills and weekly washes?+

Yes. Premium athletic blanks. Bella+Canvas, Sport-Tek, Next Level, Champion, Independent Trading Co. Real athleisure quality, not the stiff cotton tee from a school catalog. Teachers wear them through 180 days of recess, lunch duty and field trips and the print holds. Pull a few samples from your dashboard at base price first and feel the difference. They become the elementary teacher wardrobe staple you reach for first.

We already use Etsy, Custom Ink or Bonfire for elementary teacher t shirts. Why switch?+

Three reasons most teachers switch within a month. Shipping: theirs charges $5 to $10 per order, hidden. Ours is free, every order. Fees: theirs charges per color, per placement, per design, plus Etsy listing fees. Ours is one flat base price, unlimited colors. Permanence: theirs is one-off Etsy listings or bulk Custom Ink orders. Ours is a permanent elementary teacher apparel shop at your URL year-round, ready for back-to-school, the 100th day, field day, teacher appreciation week and summer break.

Do I pay anything when a fellow teacher or a parent orders? What about ordering my own classroom tees?+

Zero cost when a fellow teacher or parent orders. They pay the retail price you set. Your $8 to $16 profit per item lands directly in your dashboard. The rest covers our base price for printing, packing, and free USA shipping. For your own classroom tees and grade-level team shirts, self-order at base price (your own profit kicks back since it is your own shop). Watch every order land in real time on your phone between specials.
