Smart Collegiate Apparel Ideas
When students, families, faculty, and staff are affiliated with a college or university, collegiate apparel is in high demand. Students love showing off their school spirit, and custom college apparel makes a great gift or keepsake for those who love their school or want to show pride in their children’s achievements.
The best way to promote your college or university and make these high-demand items easily available is to set up a spirit wear store. Geiger offers support and guidance to establish your online store, making it simple to promote and sell collegiate apparel and other items to just about anyone around the world. Prospects, students, alumni, faculty, staff, families, and supporters will appreciate the opportunity to share their support on shirts, sweatshirts, pants, socks, hats, and more.
Shoppers can efficiently choose their favorite styles and sizes, selecting custom T-shirts for summer and comfy hoodies for winter. Free your staff from collecting paper order forms, managing cash, and distributing ordered items. Whether you set up a spirit wear store for a limited time as part of a big fundraiser or want to establish a long-term school store for years, reach out to us to help.
Here are some great custom collegiate apparel items to get in stock:
