Top 5 products to make your Fan Gear Storefront a hit!
Fan Gear is our Jam! We create hundreds of online storefronts each year where team members and fans can order their custom decorated gear to support their favorite sports team. We do work with some schools who commit to one brand like Under Armour or Adidas, but many times end users are just looking for something comfortable, with a fun, clean decoration to wear to games or around the community to support their team or athlete.
We sell many products with custom logos including apparel, drinkware, socks, and umbrellas. But here are the most common products that make fan gear storefronts a success.
- 1.¼ Zips and Full Zips – We offer many brands for our zip ups, but Sport Tek, although not a mainstream brand, is pretty popular for their ¼ and full zip products on our storefronts. It’s likely due to their fair price point and forgiving cuts like this ladies ¼ zip.
- 2.Hats – Whether it’s cold weather beanies or trucker hats, hats are a staple.
- 3.Sublimated Apparel – Sometimes we shake it up and offer fully sublimated items such as sweatshirts, polos, t-shirts etc. on our fan gear storefronts. That means they are fully custom designs, printed on white fabric, then cut and sewn. With this option, we don’t have to worry that the apparel might be out of stock because they are custom fabricated. And the designs can be so fun and unique. Fans love them!
- 4.Drinkware – We sell many brands, but our Polar Camel is the most popular. It’s performance in keeping beverages hot or cold can rival a Yeti, but the price point is lower. We love our engraved drinkware!
- 5.Simple Apparel - Honestly, our fan gear storefront items that are simple sell the best. A single-color hoodie, sweatshirt, or t-shirt with a prominent and tasteful school icon or design is a staple on every storefront.
We know what’s popular, but we have hundreds, if not thousands of options, so if you’re looking for ideas or new products, we’ve got those too! For the most part, we find the above items to be the top 5 products that sell on our custom fan gear storefronts, likely because they are broad enough to appeal to most fans.
