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 the coaches reach for other brands
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 academy hoodie, not the other brand

Professor Reviews

Hear from professors and academy owners running this today.

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

MR
Mike R.
Professor · 75 students
Q: DO ACADEMY TEES AND TRAINING SHORTS SURVIVE DAILY ROLLING?

"Adult students rotate three tees and two pairs of training shorts through the week. If the print cracks or the shorts shred at the seam, the academy crest dies in the laundry. Premium triblends, Sport-Tek mesh and Bear Grips training shorts, print and stitch hold through every drilling session. Students wear the academy crest at the supermarket and the airport on competition weekends. Free school marketing every day."

JT
Jenna T.
Head Coach · 182 students
Q: A NEW WHITE BELT WANTS A WOMEN CUT OR A YOUTH MEDIUM.

"Kids jiu jitsu, women class, adult students of every build. Sizes from toddler through adult 3XL, women cuts, men tees. Every student picks their own size at checkout. No 'we only have medium in the gear closet' problem when a new white belt or kid signs up mid-month."

RK
Ryan K.
Academy Owner · 330 students
Q: I TEACH SIX CLASSES A DAY AND CORNER AT TOURNAMENTS. WHO RUNS THE SHOP?

"I teach six jiu jitsu classes a day, corner students at tournaments, manage the school and travel for seminars. The merch table was always a mess. Done-For-You plan built our whole student collection plus a competition-team section. I send one logo a month. Students wearing the academy crest at the airport on a tournament weekend is the best brand-builder I have."

Professor & Academy Questions

The questions we get asked most

Can I put our academy crest, professor lineage and belt-rank art on custom jiu jitsu apparel?+

Yes. Every tee, tank, hoodie, sweatshirt and embroidered hat supports your academy crest plus professor lineage, belt-rank callouts, founding year and school motto on the front, back, sleeve or chest. Custom jiu jitsu apparel for students and instructors, all on one shop URL. Embroidered patches on hats and chest panels, screen-print quality artwork on tees and hoodies for competition team, kids program and adult students.

Do you make gis, gi pants, rashguards, spats or competition fight shorts?+

No. Traditional jiu jitsu gis, gi pants, rashguards, spats and IBJJF-cut competition shorts have specialty grappling weaves, stretch fabric and cuts we do not carry. Specialty jiu jitsu brands handle that side. What we do best: the everyday side of jiu jitsu apparel. Academy tees and tanks for warm-up and after class, Sport-Tek 7 inch mesh shorts and Bear Grips training shorts for daily drilling, hoodies and joggers for travel days and the cold-weather walk to the academy. The wearable jiu jitsu apparel students live in outside of training.

Do you offer kids, women and adult sizes for our youth jiu jitsu program, women class and adult students?+

Yes. Women racerback tanks, premium triblend tees, cropped sweatshirts and high-waist leggings sit alongside men and unisex blanks. Jiu jitsu sizing for kids on tees, hoodies and crewnecks runs from toddler through adult 3XL, plus size included. Spin up a Women, Kids, Adult and Competition Team section in the same shop. Same retail logic across every section.

Can I sell competition-team gear, alumni black-belt tees, kids program tees and professor-only apparel in the same shop?+

Yes. Your shop is one branded URL, organized into sections: Students, Competition Team, Black Belts, Kids Program, Women Class, Alumni. Drop a fresh design for a tournament weekend, a belt promotion, an academy anniversary, a seminar with a visiting professor. Students and parents pre-order, you collect profit, no inventory in the academy office.

Will academy tees and training shorts hold up to daily classes, two rolls a day and weekly washes?+

Yes. Premium athletic blanks. Bella+Canvas triblends, Sport-Tek moisture-wicking, Next Level, Champion, Independent Trading Co. Real athleisure, not the stiff cotton tee from the local print shop. Students wear them through six classes a week and they still hold print and shape. Pull a few samples from your dashboard at base price first and feel the difference.

We already use Tatami, Hayabusa or Custom Ink for academy merch. Why switch?+

Three reasons most academies switch within a month. Shipping: theirs charges $8 to $10 per order, hidden. Ours is free, every order. Fees: theirs charges per color, per placement, per design. Ours is one flat base price, unlimited colors. Specialization: theirs is generic merch sales or gi-and-rashguard sales. We have 12 years in athleisure, 500K+ orders shipped, and a permanent jiu jitsu shop framework built for academy brands like yours.

Do I pay anything when a student orders? What about professor and staff gear?+

Zero cost when a student orders. They pay the retail price you set. Your $8 to $16 profit lands directly in your dashboard. The rest covers our base price for printing, packing, and free USA shipping. For professor and staff gear, build a Professors & Coaches section and self-order at base price (your own profit kicks back since it is your own shop).
