Custom gym apparel pricing at a glance

Use these Forever Fierce tee tiers as the planning benchmark for a preorder or member merch drop. Example pricing on a standard decorated cotton tee, batch screen print. Actual tiers vary by garment, print method, and decoration complexity.

Example: what a 40-shirt gym merch drop can earn

A gym ordering 40 tees sits in the 37–72 unit tier, so Forever Fierce cost is no more than $22.99 per tee. At $31.99 retail, profit is at least $9 per shirt — $360 on the drop — and most drops beat that because most quotes come in under the ceiling.

That math only works cleanly when you do not float inventory. With Forever Fierce preorder stores, members pay first; Forever Fierce prints what sold, packs by member name, and ships free UPS.

What is included in Forever Fierce pricing?

• Design support and revisions (no art fee)
• Setup and screens (no setup fee)
• Screen printing on the run
• Packing every order by member name
• Free UPS shipping

If a local shop quotes a lower unit price but adds $100–$300 in artwork and $60–$100 in screens, Forever Fierce all-in pricing is usually the honest comparison — not the teaser unit rate.

What moves the final quote?

• Order quantity — larger runs lower the per-unit ceiling
• Garment — tees vs tanks vs hoodies (hoodies are a higher ticket; retail guidance $55–$70)
• Print locations and colors — more placements / colors can change the tier
• Print method — screen print is the volume standard at 24+ units; DTF, embroidery, and sublimation fit different jobs

Forever Fierce prices each order from real production details, not a calculator that looks cheap up front and jumps later.

Why preorder changes the cost conversation

Bulk inventory forces you to guess sizes and pay before members buy. Print-on-demand avoids inventory but usually converts poorly for gym communities. Forever Fierce preorder windows create urgency: members order in a short window, Forever Fierce produces after close, and you never sit on unsold stock.
