Our journey began humbly in a small storefront, catering to studios in the dance, cheer, and gymnastics communities. From those roots, we quickly evolved into a trusted supplier, delivering innovative solutions and high-quality uniforms for community, junior varsity, varsity, collegiate, and professional teams, as well as, grade school students and government agencies.
In addition to athletic uniforms, we provide custom classroom uniforms for grade school students, simplifying the process with online shopping sites tailored to each school’s specific requirements. Parents can easily order school-mandated uniforms online, and the orders are shipped directly to them. For added convenience, we offer on-site setups for administrators during back-to-school registration days, making the process seamless for schools and families alike.
We’re proud to champion sustainability through our Go Green initiatives. By implementing eco-friendly practices and sourcing materials responsibly, we are committed to reducing our environmental footprint while delivering the same high-quality products our customers expect.
Through our innovative online team shops, we simplify the uniform ordering process while creating effortless
fundraising opportunities. What team doesn’t need help with fundraiser dollars to purchase new uniforms or handle away travel? Our custom online shops require zero effort from coaches, administrators, or schools, and a
portion of every sale goes directly back to the team or organization to help fund future needs. On delivery day, we take it one step further by labeling all products to ensure seamless distribution.
For over 16 years, we’ve built a reputation for “on-time delivery for gameday,” giving teams and organizations
confidence that their uniforms will be ready when it matters most.
At UPAS, we’re constantly evolving to meet the needs of today’s athletes, students, and organizations. Ready to elevate your team, school, or agency with sustainable, stress-free solutions? Visit
