Side by Side

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 mentors 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 team hoodie, not the other brand

Mentor & Captain Reviews

Hear from robotics mentors and team captains running this today.

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

MR
Mike R.
Lead Mentor · 25 students
Q: DO ROBOTICS TEAM HOODIES SURVIVE A FULL BUILD SEASON AND REGIONAL TRIPS?

"Lead mentor on an FRC team, twelve years in. Used to print bulk tees at the local shop, cracked logos by the second regional. Switched to Bella+Canvas tees and Champion hoodies through the Pro Shop. Students wore the team hoodie through six-week build season, two regional weekends and a championship trip. Print still sharp, fit still soft. Alumni still wearing them in college engineering classes."

JT
Jenna T.
Robotics Coach · 50 students
Q: WHAT IF A NEW STUDENT JOINS AFTER KICKOFF AND I NEED A YOUTH LARGE?

"Used to over-order on team shirts and end up with eight extra adult smalls no one wanted. Now every parent picks their kid size and team color from the link. Late additions after kickoff still get their team tee to the door before the first scrimmage. No size juggling on regional move-in day."

RK
Ryan K.
FIRST Mentor · 80 students
Q: I TEACH PHYSICS FOUR PERIODS AND MENTOR ROBOTICS THREE NIGHTS A WEEK. WHO BUILDS THE SHOP?

"Physics teacher four periods, FRC head mentor three build nights a week, plus chaperoning two regionals. Done-For-You plan built the entire robotics team store: student tees, mentor polos, parent shirts, sponsor thank-you hoodies, alumni hoodies. I send the team number and season art once a month, they swap collections for kickoff, regionals and championship. Boosters cleared $2,400 our first season."

Mentor & Team Captain Questions

The questions we get asked most

Can I print our team number, robot name and custom robotics team designs on hoodies, tees and sweatshirts?+

Yes. Every tee, hoodie, sweatshirt and embroidered hat supports your team number, team logo, robot name, sponsor callouts and season slogan on the front, back, sleeve or chest. Unlimited design elements on one side, no per-color fee. Robotics team shirt designs, robotics team shirt ideas, robotics team uniforms and robotics team merch all under one branded URL. Strong inspiration for FRC, FTC, VEX and FLL programs ready for competition season.

Do you make competition pit jackets with safety glasses pockets, parts or robot kits?+

No. Heavy-duty FRC pit jackets with tool loops and safety glass pockets, robot parts, control kits, motor controllers and CAD software come from robotics-specialty vendors. What we do best is the robotics team apparel side. Robotics team t shirts, robotics team sweatshirts, robotics team hoodies, mentor polos, parent shirts and embroidered team hats. The branded gear students wear at every build night, every scrimmage and every regional, and the alumni hoodie they keep wearing in college.

Do you have youth sizes for middle school FLL and adult sizes for mentors, parents and alumni?+

Yes. Most apparel runs from youth through adult 3XL. Build sections for Middle School FLL, High School FTC, High School FRC, Mentors, Parents and Alumni in one robotics team shop. Ladies cuts, unisex tees, youth sizing for the youngest builders. Same retail logic. you set the markup per item across every team and age.

Can students, parents and sponsors order robotics team merchandise directly without me collecting cash?+

That is the whole point. Drop your shop link in the team Slack, the parent newsletter, the sponsor thank-you email and the robotics team Instagram. Students, parents, mentors and corporate sponsors check out themselves with their size and color. Robotics team shirts, robotics team sweatshirts and robotics team gear ship to their door free in about a week. You never count team-number shirts before a regional or hand out tees at the build space again.

Will robotics team hoodies and tees hold up through a full build season, regionals and weekly washes?+

Yes. Premium athletic and lifestyle blanks. Bella+Canvas, Sport-Tek, Champion, Next Level, Independent Trading Co. Real athleisure, not the stiff cotton tee from the cheap robotics team store vendors. Students wear them through six-week build seasons, weekend scrimmages, regional weekends and weekly washes 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 Custom Ink or BSN Sports for robotics team shirts. Why switch?+

Three reasons most robotics programs switch within a season. 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. Permanence: theirs is season-by-season bulk ordering. Ours is a permanent robotics team store at your URL year-round, ready for kickoff, regionals, championship trip and the alumni weekend.

Do I pay anything when a student or parent orders? What about mentor polos and sponsor gear?+

Zero cost when a student, parent or sponsor orders. They pay the retail price you set. Your $8 to $16 profit lands directly in the booster dashboard. The rest covers our base price for printing, packing, and free USA shipping. For mentor polos, lead mentor jackets and sponsor thank-you tees, build a Mentors & Sponsors section and self-order at base price. Watch every order land in real time on your phone between build nights.
