Built for the field, finished for game day

Pivot Apparel turns your idea into sports shorts with sublimation, which means the artwork is part of the fabric. No cracking, no peeling, and a design that can run across the whole garment.

Add the club logo, put names and numbers on every player, and check how it looks in the Kit Builder before asking for a quote. Teams and clubs can order from 10 units.

Pivot Apparel is based in Tauranga, and clubs and schools across Mount Maunganui, Papamoa and the wider Bay of Plenty order sports shorts from us. We deliver anywhere in New Zealand.

Shorts questions

How do I order sports shorts from Pivot Apparel?

Design in the Kit Builder or send us your artwork, then request a quote and we take it from there.

Is there a minimum number of units?

Yes, orders start at 10 units.

Will the colours fade or the logos peel?

The design is sublimated into the fabric, so there is no transfer layer to crack or peel.

What is the turnaround?

Plan on 4 to 6 weeks once the design is approved, so book in well before game day.
