Brands we source and decorate
Real garments from our catalog
Most school apparel relationships center on hoodies, tees, and warmups for parents and athletes, plus embroidered polos and jackets for coaches and staff. Add hats, drinkware, and bags to round out the program.
You shouldn't be running a side hustle to sell spirit gear.
The traditional school apparel model breaks every season. The AD or coach takes orders on a paper form. Parents pay by check. Sizes are guessed. Half the gear arrives wrong or late, and a parent emails the principal about a refund.
There's a better way. We source the spiritwear, decorate it in-house, and let parents and athletes order it directly. They pay online. They enter their own sizes. We ship to home addresses or batch to the school. You stop collecting cash. You stop chasing sizes. The gear shows up, on time, looking right.

What your apparel partnership with OTIA covers
“We used to spend the first two weeks of every season collecting checks and sizes for warmups. We launched a store with OTIA and it runs in the background now. Parents love it. I got my Sundays back.”
— Athletic Director, Long Island school athletic program
Questions we hear about school & athletic apparel
Does it cost the school anything?
No setup cost and no monthly fee. If you use a branded store, it's free to launch and free to run. Parents pay per item. If you want to fundraise, add a margin per item that flows back to your program.
Can we use this for fundraising?
Yes. You set a fundraising margin on top of the per-item price. Every order contributes. We track it transparently and you get a payout schedule we agree on at setup.
Are there minimums?
No. Parents can order one shirt for one kid. We produce in-house so individual orders ship in our typical 72-hour turnaround.
What about coaches' gear and uniforms that aren't for sale to parents?
We can run a private section visible only to coaches and staff, or do separate direct orders for uniforms. Both work. Many programs do public spiritwear plus private coach apparel.
