Guides
Plain-English buyer guides for coaches, gym owners and athletic departments, written by a cheer uniform manufacturer. Use them to plan an order, compare options and avoid common mistakes.
Guides by team type
Read the guide that matches your program: all-star teams covers what gym owners need from a uniform supplier, college programs covers university requirements and budgets, and competition teams covers durability and performance for stunting and tumbling.
Buying guides
If you are choosing a supplier or setting a budget, start with how to choose a manufacturer and what custom uniforms cost. Our fabric guide explains which fabric suits which garment and decoration, and the sample process shows how to check a design before bulk production.
Sizing and care
Getting the fit right matters as much as the design. The size guide shows how to measure each athlete, and the care guide explains how to wash and store rhinestone and sublimated uniforms so they last the season.
How to use these guides
Pick the guide for your team type, then read the buying and sizing guides before you request a quote. Each guide links to the product pages that apply, so you can move from research to a mockup and a sample without starting over.
