Professional and College Sports Licensing
Your local pro sports team made the playoffs. And everyone is buying a custom t-shirt to celebrate. Certainly, we saw this first hand when our Cleveland Cavaliers brought home a championship. Everyone was wearing a t-shirt recognizing the accomplishment.
If you are in the custom t-shirt business you want to be a part of the excitement and profits. But…. if you are using the logo or any part of their trademarked team name and colors, you are going to need a professional sports license.
Although we don’t hold any of this licensing we can be your printer if you obtain a license. And you can use custom transfers.
Most licensees will require a licensing fee and a royalty on every sale. A minimum purchase requirement is usually also a part of the agreement
