What is a school
spirit wear program?
A school spirit wear program is a done-for-you way to sell school apparel. French Press Custom, a custom apparel printer in Santa Fe Springs, CA since 2010, builds and runs an online store for your school, designs each seasonal collection, prints every order in one batch and delivers it to campus sorted by classroom. We run the store and the payments, so the school never buys inventory or handles cash.
Everything your
volunteers used to do.
One contact at your school approves designs and shares the link. We do the rest.
Your own online store
A branded store with your mascot and colors. Families pick sizes and pay online. No paper forms, no cash envelopes, no accounts to create.
A collection every season
We put together a new collection for each drop and match your school colors on every garment. You approve everything before it goes live.
We run the store
Orders, customer questions, size swaps and payments all come to us. Nothing lands on the front office or a parent volunteer.
Printed in one batch
When the window closes we print every order together at our Santa Fe Springs shop. That keeps the price low for families.
Sorted and delivered
Orders come to campus sorted by classroom or grade and labeled by student. Shipping to home is available for an added fee.
Staff, teams and clubs
The same program covers staff shirts, teams, boosters, clubs and event shirts, so the whole school orders from one place.
What your
store looks like.
Families see your colors, your mascot and this season's collection, pick sizes and check out with a card. We take it from there.
Sample school shown. Yours gets your name, mascot and colors.
No checks.
No cash envelopes.
We handle the whole order, from checkout to card processing. Your office never collects money, deposits a check or chases an unpaid order form.
- 01Families pay by card at checkout
Every order is paid online when it is placed. No order forms, cash or checks coming through the office.
- 02Card processing is on us
We run the checkout and handle the card processing, so the school never sets up a merchant account or pays a card fee.
- 03Staff and team orders too
Bulk orders the school buys directly are paid by card online too, and we accept tax-exempt certificates.

What PTAs
ask us most.
What is a school spirit wear program?
It is a done-for-you way to sell school apparel. French Press Custom builds and runs an online store for your school, designs each seasonal collection, prints every order in one batch, and delivers it to campus sorted by classroom. We run the store, the payments and the customer questions, so the school does not buy inventory or handle money.
How much does it cost the school?
Nothing upfront. We build the store at no cost to the school. Families pay for what they order by card at checkout, and we handle the card processing. If you want to raise money, the fundraiser store option adds an amount you choose to each item, typically $3-8.
How often does the store open?
Most schools run 3-4 windows a year, such as back to school, homecoming, winter and spring, each open for about 2-3 weeks. The store can also stay open all year.
Who does the work on the school side?
One contact, usually a PTA board member, booster parent or office manager. They approve designs and share the store link. We handle design, the store, payments, printing, sorting and delivery.
Can staff, teams and clubs order through the same program?
Yes. Staff shirts, sports teams with names and numbers, clubs, and event shirts like field day or promotion can all run through your program, as separate collections or as bulk orders.
Do you work with schools near me?
We are in Santa Fe Springs, CA, and run programs for schools across Los Angeles County and Orange County, including Cerritos, Cypress, Huntington Beach, Whittier, Downey, Norwalk, La Mirada, Bellflower, Lakewood and Long Beach. We deliver to campus locally and ship anywhere in the US.
Do you accept tax-exempt orders?
Yes. Schools and nonprofits can send their tax-exemption certificate for bulk orders the school buys directly.
How do we get started?
