How to Order School Spirit Wear and Grad Shirts in Saskatoon

Ask any teacher or parent council volunteer and they will tell you the shirts are never the hard part. Collecting sizes is. This guide walks you through ordering school spirit wear and grad shirts in Saskatoon the easy way, from picking the blank to handing out the boxes.

Start with the right blank

For whole school orders you want one style that comes in youth, ladies and adult sizes so every student and staff member matches. Our event and fundraiser tees are cotton and cotton blend styles that come in all three cuts and keep the price per shirt friendly. For grads who want something they will actually keep wearing, a hoodie or crewneck from our school spirit wear collection is the crowd favourite.

A five step plan for spirit wear orders

1. Set your deadline backwards. Pick the day you need shirts in hand, then give yourself about two weeks for collecting sizes and payment, plus 2 to 5 business days for printing.
2. Lock the design early. Send us the school logo or a rough idea. We set it up and send a mockup so the committee can approve one picture instead of debating in a group chat.
3. Collect sizes in one place. A shared form with name, grade, size and colour works best. Ask families to check our size chart, since youth and adult sizes run differently.
4. Order a few extras. New students and forgotten forms happen every time. Two or three spare shirts in common sizes save a lot of stress.
5. Pick up or get delivery. Orders over $150 get free delivery in Saskatoon, Warman and Martensville.

Grad shirts that people keep

Grad gear is a keepsake, so it is worth a little extra. Popular ideas we print every year:

• Grad year on the front, every graduate's name on the back
• A photo or caricature of the grad for family shirts, like the "Team" style shirts parents wear to the ceremony
• Matching hoodies for the whole class in the school colours
• Proud Mom, Proud Dad and Proud Sister versions of the same design

Because we print with DTF, full colour photos and gradients cost the same as a simple one colour logo. That is great news for grad photos and detailed crests.

Fundraising with spirit wear

Many schools sell spirit wear as a fundraiser. Order at the bulk price, sell at a set price, and the difference goes to the field trip or grad fund. With no minimums, you can also do a small first run, see what sells, and reorder the popular sizes later. Our post on fundraiser shirts has more ideas.
