Custom Cycling Kits for Your Club: No Minimums, Design Steps and When to Order
There is no minimum order for a custom cycling kit at Online Cycling Gear, and no setup fee, so a club can order one jersey or eighty. Upload your logo and ideas, approve the design with our Customer Success team, then each rider picks a size. Start this winter to ride the new kit in spring.
In short
- No minimum order and no setup fee, from one jersey to eighty.
- Upload what you have. We finalize the design with you before production.
- Sizes run 2XS-7XL, and every rider picks their own from body measurements.
- Custom orders are final, so collect measurements before you order.
Is there a minimum order for custom cycling kits?
No. Our custom kit page sets no minimum quantity and no setup fee, from a single jersey to eighty for a club. Minimums are often what stops a small club. "Full custom, like I want, is a minimum of 15 garments," tomalphin wrote on BikeForums. A Tuesday group of eight riders can't clear that without buying jerseys for people who don't exist.
With no minimum, you also choose how the money and sizes get handled. Riders can order one by one from the same design, which spares anyone from chasing payments. One person can also place the whole order, and a shared order can clear free shipping on orders over $125.
A new rider who joins in August can order a single matching jersey too. For a bigger example, one event organizer ordered 18 jerseys, two per team, with a different color and team name for each of her nine teams.
Which custom option suits your club?
We have four routes, and the right one depends on how much of the design your club wants to control.
| Route | What you get | Suits |
|---|---|---|
| Full custom design | Your logos, text and colors on a matching jersey, kit, bib, shorts and cap | A club with its own look or sponsors |
| Custom logo jerseys | Your logo on a men's or women's jersey, short or long sleeve, in five colors | A club or company that mainly needs its logo on the road |
| Create your own jerseys | A men's or women's jersey with a personal design, such as a pet portrait and a name | A gift or one rider's own jersey, more than a whole club |
| Add side panel text to a jersey from the store | One of our designs with your club name on the side | A club that already loves one of our designs |
Most clubs that want a full look start with the Men's Full Custom Design Cycling Kit. Add the Full Custom Design Cycling Bib or the Full Custom Design Cycling Cap to keep the look consistent. For women in the group, the Women's Custom Logo Short Sleeve Cycling Jersey is a direct option, and Customization: Make as Women's covers other jerseys.
The full custom jersey uses moisture-wicking 140 GSM polyester with 110 GSM mesh side panels, three back pockets, a silicone waist gripper and full sublimation printing. The bib has a 9D silicone gel pad and 45 mm silicone leg grippers.
How do you order custom cycling jerseys for a club?
- Pick one of the routes above and agree on the look with two or three mockup ideas, not an open debate.
- Set a deadline for sizes and ask every rider for their chest, waist and hip measurements.
- Upload your logos, text and any reference photos or sketches in the customization panel on the product page, then check out.
- Answer our Customer Success team, who contact you after checkout to finalize the details and get your approval.
- Production starts once you approve. Riders who missed the deadline can order later from the same design.
You don't need a finished design to begin. Our product pages ask you to upload what you have, and we help polish it into production-ready artwork. If you would rather talk first, the custom kit page has a form for requesting a quote.
Whoever volunteers as kit captain should expect to make the final call. A committee where everyone has a graphic design opinion can stall for weeks, so let the club vote between finished options and move on.
How do you design a club kit that looks good?
Go loud if that is your club, but keep the design intentional. Two or three strong colors read well from a distance, and a jersey that holds every sponsor, every inside joke and every rider's favorite color turns into noise. Decide what matters most, usually the club name and logo, and give it the most space.
We can place logos on the front, back and sleeves of the jersey, plus team names, rider numbers and sponsor marks. On the bib, artwork can go on the front, back and shoulder straps. Plan them together, so the whole kit reads as one design when you are on the bike.
Colors on a screen and colors on fabric are rarely identical. To reduce surprises, upload a photo, swatch or sketch that shows the color you mean, and raise anything that looks off when you review the design. Save the final artwork in the club's shared folder as well, so the next order starts from the same files.
How do you get sizes right across a whole club?
Collect body measurements from every rider, because our size charts use chest, waist and hip measurements and the letter on another brand's jersey tells you little. "I never bother with the letter designations S, M, L, XL and always refer to actual measurements," atwl77 wrote on BikeForums. Send everyone the size chart and ask them to compare it with their own numbers.
Our jerseys have a club fit cut and run small, so riders between sizes should size up. Each rider picks their own size from 2XS-7XL within the same design, which matters when one group has very different body shapes.
“Jerseys fit a little snug, so size up 1x. Quality is really good and I'm pleased with my purchase.”

When should a club order for spring?
Now is a good time to start. Winter is when most clubs ride less, so riders have time to vote on a design and send measurements before the first big group ride. Everything is made to order, and production begins only after you approve the design, so the slow part is usually the club's own decisions.
Long sleeve versions are also worth a look for early spring mornings. The Men's Custom Logo Long Sleeve Cycling Jersey and the Women's Custom Logo Long Sleeve Cycling Jersey carry the same logo idea. If your club has a fixed event, tell our Customer Success team the date before you order and ask what is realistic.
What happens if a custom jersey doesn't fit?
Custom orders are final, and they can't be returned, because a jersey with your club's logo can't be resold. That is why the measurements come before the order. Our 60-day store-credit returns cover non-customized items only, as our returns policy explains.
Order one sample jersey first if the group is unsure about sizing. With no minimum, that costs one jersey, and riders of a similar build can try it on before they commit. Each of them still chooses from their own body measurements. Our guide to cycling jersey fit covers how a jersey should feel on the bike.
