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 members 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
Members 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
Members stop wearing it
You and your members 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
Your members reach for the org hoodie, not the other brand

Why It Works

Curated for your members and alumni. Zero guesswork.

We pick the season's best. You focus on what you do best.

Chapter Officer Reviews

Hear from chapter officers and advisors running this today.

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

Mike R.

Chapter President · 75 members

Q: DO ORG HOODIES SURVIVE A SEMESTER OF RECRUITMENT AND PHILANTHROPY?

"Used to bulk order cheap student organization t shirts every fall, end up with cracked prints by spring formal. Switched to this. Champion hoodies, Bella+Canvas tees. Members wear them through recruitment week, philanthropy 5K, finals week and conference travel. Still soft, still printed sharp. New members ask for the org hoodie before they even sign their bid card."

Jenna T.

Recruitment Chair · 182 members

Q: WHAT IF AN ALUM OR NEW MEMBER NEEDS A DIFFERENT SIZE?

"Used to take pre-orders on a Google Form, mess up sizes, end up Venmoing people refunds for the wrong shirt. Now every member, alum and parent picks their own size and color at checkout. Org merchandise ships to their door free. Recruitment week, every new member has their hoodie. No more refund threads in the group chat."

Ryan K.

Faculty Advisor · 330 members

Q: I AM CHAPTER PRESIDENT WITH 18 CREDITS. WHO RUNS THE STORE?

"Chapter president, full course load, philanthropy chair on top of it. Done-For-You plan handled the whole student organization apparel store. Sent the org logo and one philanthropy design. They picked the trending hoodies, polos and tees for the semester. Chapter raised $2,400 for our national philanthropy from merch profit alone."

Officer & Advisor Questions

The questions we get asked most

Can I put our student organization logo, chapter name and founding year on custom student organization apparel?+

Yes. Every tee, sweatshirt, hoodie, polo and embroidered hat supports your student organization logo, chapter name, school name and founding year on the front, back, sleeve or chest. Add officer titles, recruitment art, philanthropy callouts, conference designs and induction-class commemoratives. Unlimited design elements on one side, no per-color fee. Student organization shirts, sweatshirts, polos and merch in one branded shop URL.

Do you carry student organization merchandise for officers, general members, alumni and advisors?+

Yes. Build sections for Officers, General Members, Alumni, Advisors, New Members and Philanthropy in the same shop. Premium athletic blanks across the board: Bella+Canvas, Champion, Sport-Tek, Independent Trading Co., Next Level. Student organization t shirts for general body, polos for officer meetings, hoodies for recruitment, crewnecks for philanthropy week. Every audience covered on one dashboard.

Can members and alumni order student organization merch directly without me collecting cash on Venmo?+

That is the whole point. Drop your shop link in the org GroupMe, the recruitment Instagram, the chapter email list. Members, alumni and parents check out themselves with their size and color. Student organization merchandise ships to their door free in about a week. You never collect Venmo, count sizes, or hand out shirts at the chapter house.

Will student organization sweatshirts and tees hold up after a year of recruitment, philanthropy and weekly washes?+

Yes. Premium athletic blanks, not the cheap promo cotton from a generic vendor. Bella+Canvas, Champion, Independent Trading Co. hoodies, Sport-Tek polos, Next Level triblends. Members wear them through recruitment week, philanthropy events, conference travel, finals week and weekly washes. Pull samples from your dashboard at base price first and feel the difference.

Can I sell recruitment tees, philanthropy hoodies and conference shirts in the same shop?+

Yes. Your shop is one branded org URL, organized into sections: Officers, Recruitment, Philanthropy, Conference, Induction, Alumni. Drop a fresh design for rush week, your philanthropy event, the regional conference, the senior class commemorative. Members and alumni pre-order. You collect profit. No leftover student organization shirts in the chapter house closet.

We already use Custom Ink or Greek-licensed vendors for org shirts. Why switch?+

Three reasons most student organizations switch within a semester. 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 event-by-event ordering. Ours is a permanent student organization apparel store at your org URL year-round, ready for the next rush, the next philanthropy, the next conference.

Do I pay anything when a member orders? What about funding the chapter from merch profit?+

Zero cost when a member or alum orders. They pay the retail price you set. Your $8 to $16 profit lands directly in your org dashboard. The rest covers our base price for printing, packing, and free USA shipping. Many chapters use the merch profit to fund philanthropy, cover conference travel or stock the chapter house. Watch every order land in real time on your phone between classes.
