How it works

Bring us your ideas.
We do the heavy lifting.

No team should spend its build season figuring out where to get shirts. Pick one of three ways to order, and we take it from there.

  • No setup fees
  • No recurring fees
  • No order minimums
Three ways to order

Pick the one that fits your team.

Every team works a little differently. Switch next season, or use more than one.

School and program stores

One school. Every team. One link.

Running several robotics teams at one school or program? Get a school page in your school's colors that links to every team's own store, so families find all of them in one place.

  • One link for the whole school or program, with as many teams as you need
  • Each team keeps its own logo, colors, and designs
  • Every team store links back to the school page
  • Each team picks pop up or year round
Event stores

Gear for the big day.

Hosting a competition, or bringing your team to one? An event store works like a pop up store built around the event. It closes before the event, so every order arrives in time.

  • Open until a set date before the event
  • Every order ships straight to the buyer before the event
  • We also bring a smaller selection to sell at the event
  • Each item is labeled, so people know what to pre-order
  • For teams and event organizers
From your idea to their hands

Four steps. We handle the hard parts.

  1. Step 01

    Bring us your ideas

    A logo, a sketch, or just an idea. Your team owns its story; we bring it to life and help with design when you need it.

  2. Step 02

    Pick your gear

    Apparel, hats, banners, and more. You see your design on every item before anything is made.

  3. Step 03

    Share your store

    Send one link to your team, families, and sponsors. Post it, email it, or print the QR code for your pit.

  4. Step 04

Questions teams ask

Good questions. Short answers.

Do we have to handle money, sizes, or shipping?

No. Buyers pick their own sizes and pay at checkout. We take care of production, shipping, and delivery, so your team can stay focused on the robot.

Can our store raise money for the team?

Yes. Fundraising is available on a year round store: your team sets its own price for each item and keeps everything above our cost. What your team earns depends on how many people buy and the price you set.

When is the best time to open a store?

Most teams open one at the start of the season, before a big event, or around the holidays when families are shopping for gifts. Some run a few short stores through the year.

Can our store stay open all year?

Yes. Many teams keep a store open year round so alumni, families, and supporters can order whenever they want.

What can we sell?

Tees, hoodies, polos, jackets, hats, bags, banners, stickers, and more. See what we make.

How do we spread the word?

Share your store link on your team's social media and email lists, put a QR code on a sign in your pit, and hand out flyers to parents, schools, and sponsors.

We have several teams at one school. Can they share a store?

Yes. Your school or program gets one page in its own colors that links to each team's store. Every team keeps its own logo, colors, and designs, and families reach all of them from one link.

How do event stores work?

An event store opens for a set window and closes before the event, so every order ships to the buyer in time. We also bring a smaller selection to sell at the event. Each item in the store is labeled Also at the event or Online only, so people know what to pre-order.

Do you only work with certain robotics programs?

No. BotFitters works with robotics teams of every kind, whatever program you compete in, across the country.

How long does it take?

Turnaround depends on the size of the order and the shop that produces the gear. Tell us your event date and we'll plan around it.

Ready when your team is.

No team should spend its build season figuring out where to get shirts. Bring us your ideas. We do the heavy lifting.
