Educators
BandThreads is an apparel company that specializes in working with band programs to supply show shirts, summer uniforms, and spirit wear at a competitive price and with amazing speed. We can do everything from a single shirt to a thousand shirts, all at the speed that your program needs. Garments are made on demand, eliminating the need for programs to order extra clothes that will end up sitting in a random closet unused for years. We also remove the need for paper and pen order management. All billing, shipping, and logistics are handled by our online system so you can spend more time focusing on the music!
We do it all
Services
Distilled to the most important parts, BandThreads will give your program it's own web page on our site (which you can link on your facebook or other social media), where your students and supporters can go to order your program's apparel. We offer long sleeves, sweatshirts, really anything you could want. We of course also do bulk pre-season shirt production. Stop buying excess show shirts in case members lose them or need more, just send them to our store and we take care of the rest.
Environmental considerations
Our Commitment to the Environment
We partner with NoIssue to utilize home compostable shipping materials purchased with carbon offset shipping. Through working with our suppliers, we get custom blank garments manufactured to minimize the amount of synthetic polyester materials used. Many print shops use 50/50 blended cotton polyester garments to save costs, but we would rather use safe and sustainable materials at the cost of a little profit, so we use our custom 95% cotton, cotton lined hoodies and sweatshirts, and 100% cotton t-shirts to make our products.
We do what no one else does
Online Services
So you've got your season's supply of shirts, the same as any other year, but now we take care of everything else on the online side. No more filling out tons of forms and dealing with payment and invoices and hounding people for money and having clothes left over at the end of the year. Have some student's show shirts go MIA? Send students online and have them order them right to their houses. We take care of the web hosting, payment processing, and of course the actual manufacturing and shipping of your clothes.
