ORDERING

How do I set up an online store where members of my organization can purchase our customized products from?

Please check out this page for more information on setting up and using a custom store.

What are custom stores and are they free to set up?

Custom stores are online stores that we can set up for you where team member can place orders individually. This removes the need for a middleman between organization members and purchasing custom gear (i.e. no need to gather the preference of each member, compile the orders, make sure that minimum requirements are met given the preferences, and collect payment from the members). They are free to set up and use! Please check out this page for more information on setting up and using a custom store.

When is the latest I can modify my order?

We place your order immediately after you confirm your purchase with one of our managers. After you communicate the exact styles, quantity, sizes, and design of the products in your order and approve the pricing, your purchase is moved into production and cannot be modified. Therefore, please be careful to review the details of your order before communicating it to your GroupGear manager. If you would like to re-order any part of your purchase, you may do so at the same price per item.
