A custom teamwear supplier designs and manufactures the clothing a team wears around competition: warm-ups, travel gear, sideline layers, practice tops and bags, all in the team's colors and logos. Game uniforms are part of it too, but teamwear is usually the layer that makes a club look organized on the bus, at the rink door or in the team photo. Gallian Sports is a custom teamwear supplier based in Ellicott City, Maryland that ships to all 50 US states and every Canadian province and territory. The company works directly with coaches, athletic directors, club managers and team parents, so one person can handle design, sizing and payment for the whole roster without going through a dealer. If your main question is cost, the existing [guide to low-cost, fast-delivery teamwear](https://galliansportswear.com/blog/custom-teamwear-low-prices-fast-delivery.html) goes deeper on pricing. This article focuses on picking the right supplier and on how an order with Gallian works from start to finish. ## Which teamwear products does Gallian Sports make? Gallian Sports makes a full off-field range alongside uniforms for more than a dozen sports. Starting prices below are per piece in USD at the 10–24 tier: - [Team hoodies](https://galliansportswear.com/shop/promo-hoodie.html) from $28.99, and senior class hoodies with names from $25.99 - [Team tracksuits](https://galliansportswear.com/shop/promo-tracksuit.html) from $55.99, or the Club Tracksuit Bundle Pack at $95.95 - [Team polo shirts](https://galliansportswear.com/shop/promo-polo.html) from $17.99 for coaches and staff - Team rain jackets from $44.99 and compression shirts from $22.99 - [Team puffer jackets](https://galliansportswear.com/shop/varsity-jackets-1.html) from $70.99 and team gilets (vests) from $50.99 - [Team duffle bags](https://galliansportswear.com/shop/promo-duffle.html) from $30.99 and backpacks from $25.99 The [Off-Field Collection](https://galliansportswear.com/off-field.html) adds travel, sideline and coaches wear with a 30-piece minimum. Warm-up jackets and pants can be built in the same colorway as your game uniforms, so a club can order game kits and sideline layers from one design and one quote. Bags are an easy add-on that teams often regret skipping. A duffle or backpack printed with the player's name and number makes it simple to find the right gear in a crowded tournament hallway, and it carries the club's colors well beyond game day. ## Who orders custom teamwear from a factory-direct supplier? Most teamwear orders come from people who are responsible for a roster and a budget at the same time. That usually means one of four groups: - **Coaches** who want matching warm-ups and travel gear for a tournament weekend. - **Athletic directors** outfitting several school programs and needing one supplier for many sports. - **Club managers** running youth or adult clubs with multiple age groups that share one look. - **Team parents** collecting money for spirit wear, often for a fundraiser; the [spirit wear fundraiser guide](https://galliansportswear.com/blog/team-hoodies-spirit-wear-fundraiser-guide.html) covers that use case. Because youth sizes (YS–YXL) and adult sizes (XS–3XL) can be mixed in one design and count together toward the 10-piece minimum, a single order can cover players, siblings, coaches and parents. A typical example: a U12 team of 16 players plus 3 coaches orders 19 hoodies. At $28.99 each that is $550.81 before shipping, with every player's name included. If the whole club orders 60 of the same hoodie design, the 50–99 tier lowers the price by 15% to about $24.64 each. ## How do you choose a custom teamwear supplier? A checklist Choose a supplier that answers price, timing and payment questions in writing before you commit. Use this checklist when comparing quotes: - **Free proof first.** You should see a mockup of your design before paying. Gallian sends one within 24 hours, with free revisions. - **All-in pricing.** Ask whether names, numbers and logos cost extra. Gallian includes full sublimation of names, numbers, team and sponsor logos, with no setup or art fees. - **A realistic minimum.** Ten pieces per design is small enough for a single team. - **Volume breaks.** Look for published tiers. Gallian takes 8% off at 25–49 pieces, 15% at 50–99 and 22% at 100+. - **A stated timeline.** About 3–4 weeks after approval and payment, with a rush option around 2 weeks. - **Clear payment and defect policies** you can read on the website before ordering. - **Size range.** Youth, adult and women's fits from one source. If a supplier cannot answer these points in writing before you commit, keep looking. A clear written quote protects the person ordering as much as the team. ## What fabrics and decoration options should teamwear use? Teamwear should be made from durable, easy-care performance fabrics and decorated in a way that survives repeated washing. Warm-up jackets and tracksuits are typically made from polyester knits that hold their shape; compression tops use stretch fabric that wicks moisture; rain jackets add a weather-resistant shell. Gallian offers three decoration methods: - **Sublimation (included):** ink is dyed into the polyester, so graphics, names and numbers never crack or peel and add no weight. - **Embroidered logo (+$4 per piece):** a classic finish for polos, jackets and coaches wear. - **Tackle twill names and numbers (+$6 per piece):** stitched fabric lettering with a raised, traditional look. The comparison in [sublimation vs. screen printing vs. tackle twill](https://galliansportswear.com/blog/sublimation-vs-screen-printing-vs-tackle-twill.html) explains which method suits which garment. Fit matters as much as fabric. Tracksuit jackets should leave room for a layer underneath on cold mornings, and players who wear hoodies over pads or game jerseys often order one size up. Women's fits are available for most items, and youth sizes run YS–YXL. ## How long does a custom teamwear order take, and when should you order? A standard Gallian teamwear order arrives about 3–4 weeks after you approve the mockup and pay; rush production takes about 2 weeks. Before that, the mockup takes under 24 hours and collecting sizes and names usually takes 2–5 days. Work backward from the first day you need the gear. For a fall season that starts in September, place the order by early August. For a winter tournament or holiday fundraiser, aim for early November. Canadian clubs starting indoor seasons in October should order by late August to leave room for border clearance. Coaches wear and staff polos are often forgotten until the week before the season; adding them to the main order keeps everything in one shipment. If you are running a fundraiser, close the parent order window at least a week before you need to submit final sizes. ## Is paying a teamwear supplier online secure? With Gallian Sports, nothing is paid until you have approved the free mockup, the size list and an itemized final quote in USD. That quote shows every line, plus shipping, and for Canadian orders it also shows duties and taxes, so there are no surprise charges at the door. Once you approve, 100% of the order is paid upfront using the payment instructions printed on the quote, and production starts when the payment is received. There is no deposit-and-balance option. Designs and sizes are locked once production begins; late players can be added on a later order of 10 or more pieces. If something arrives with a production defect, report it within 14 days of delivery with photos or video. Once verified, it is settled with a credit note against a future order or a return. Custom items cannot be returned for a change of mind. Full details are on the [payment policy](https://galliansportswear.com/payment-policy.html) and return policy pages. ## How do you order custom teamwear from Gallian Sports? Ordering takes five steps, and only the last one involves payment: - **Request a mockup.** Use the [free mockup generator](https://galliansportswear.com/#mockup) or send your logo and colors; a proof comes back within 24 hours. - **Revise for free** until the design is right. - **Submit sizes and names** using the team order form; measure a few players if you are unsure between youth and adult sizes. - **Approve the itemized quote** showing price per piece, any extras, shipping and (for Canada) duties and taxes. - **Pay 100% upfront** using the instructions on the quote; production starts and your gear ships in about 3–4 weeks. ## Shipping teamwear to the USA and Canada Gallian Sports ships teamwear to every US state and every Canadian province and territory. All prices are in USD; for a quick estimate in Canadian dollars, multiply by about 1.41, so a $55.99 tracksuit is roughly CA$78.95 before tax. Canadian quotes list shipping, duties and GST/HST/PST (TPS and TVQ in Québec) as separate lines, and French accents print exactly for bilingual names. The per-piece price is the same in both countries; only shipping and, for Canada, duties and taxes are added. See the [Canada page](https://galliansportswear.com/locations/canada.html) for more. **What is the minimum order for custom teamwear?** The minimum is 10 pieces per design. Youth and adult sizes can be mixed and count together toward that minimum. The Off-Field Collection has a 30-piece minimum. **Are there setup or art fees for team hoodies and tracksuits?** No. Gallian Sports charges no setup or art fees, and full sublimation of names, numbers, team logos and sponsor logos is included in the price. **How much does an embroidered logo cost on teamwear?** An embroidered logo adds $4 per piece. Tackle twill names and numbers add $6 per piece. **How fast can custom teamwear be delivered?** Standard orders take about 3–4 weeks after mockup approval and payment. Rush orders take about 2 weeks. **Do bulk teamwear orders get a discount?** Yes. Per-design prices drop 8% at 25–49 pieces, 15% at 50–99 pieces and 22% at 100 pieces or more.
