Customize Your Summer with J&J Athletics!

With Memorial Day weekend just around the corner, it’s the unofficial start to summer here in Minnesota! Between events filling up the calendar, and weekends spent out on the lake, there is no shortage of reasons to show up looking great. Whether you are planning a summer event or gearing up for life on the water, J&J Athletics has everything you need to make this summer stand out.

Custom Screen Printing for Every Summer Occasion

When it comes to high-quality, long-lasting custom apparel, screen printing is hard to beat. At J&J Athletics, we specialize in custom screen printing for groups of all sizes, and summer is the perfect time to customize. From community events and fundraisers to youth sports leagues and company outings, a well-designed custom tee or sweatshirt brings people together and keeps your brand front and center all season long.

Some of the most popular uses for summer screen printing include:

  • Summer camps and youth programs
  • Company picnics and team outings
  • Community events and fundraisers
  • Sports teams and recreational leagues
  • Graduation parties, weddings, and celebrations

Heading to the Lake?

Ask any Minnesotan what makes summer special and they will probably mention the lake. With more than 10,000 of them, it is practically a way of life here. Whether you are relaxing on the dock, fishing, boating, or planning a big lakeside gathering, personalized lake apparel is a fun way to rep your love of the outdoors in style.

J&J Athletics offers a full lineup of customized lake apparel perfect for the season, including:

  • Hoodies and sweatshirts for cool mornings on the water
  • Graphic tees and tanks with lake-inspired designs
  • Custom caps and hats featuring your favorite lake’s name or logo
  • Coordinated group apparel for family reunions, cabin weekends, and lakeside events

Matching gear for a group outing makes for great photos, lasting memories, and a real sense of togetherness. It is one of those details that turns a good trip into a great one.

Check out our lake apparel available to order here.

Don’t Sacrifice Comfort For Style 

When the temperatures climb, comfort matters just as much as looking good does. That is why we work with many styles of apparel ranging from moisture-wicking fabrics, lightweight blends, and breathable materials that keep your team cool and comfortable through even the longest summer days. Great-looking gear should also be gear people actually want to wear. 

J&J Athletics proudly carries a range of trusted brands that offer exceptional comfort, style, and durability. From iconic athletic wear to premium outdoor brands, we have something for every occasion. Check out all of the brands we carry here.

Don’t Forget the Extras

No summer event is complete without a few crowd-pleasing extras. Custom can koozies are always a hit, and for good reason. They are practical, easy to personalize, and the kind of item guests actually hold onto. Whether you are throwing a graduation party, a wedding, a bachelorette weekend, or just a casual lake day with friends, custom koozies are a simple touch that goes a long way.

Looking for more ideas? Browse our full selection of summer-friendly promotional items here.

Make This Summer Your Best Yet!

Summer schedules fill up fast, so the sooner you start planning your custom apparel, the better. J&J Athletics is here to help with quick turnarounds, expert guidance, and a wide range of products to fit any occasion or budget.

When employees wear branded company apparel featuring your logo, they become walking brand ambassadors. Whether they’re meeting clients, attending trade shows, visiting job sites, or even grabbing lunch, your brand is being seen by potential customers and partners. 

Custom corporate branding helps:

  • Increase brand awareness
  • Present a professional company image
  • Promote your business outside the office

Every branded shirt, jacket, or hat acts as an advertisement for your business.

Benefits of Custom Branded Apparel

Providing custom employee apparel can help create a stronger sense of unity and company culture. When everyone is wearing the same branded clothing, it reinforces the idea that they are part of one team working toward shared goals.

Saves Time and Simplifies Dress Codes: Offering company-branded clothing can eliminate daily wardrobe decisions while also establishing clear expectations for professional attire. Employees know exactly what is appropriate to wear to work, at meetings, or representing your business at events.

Cost Effective Marketing: Unlike traditional advertising that stops when the campaign ends, custom company apparel continues to promote your brand wherever it’s worn.

  • Service and field teams
  • Medical clinics and healthcare offices
  • Construction and trade professionals

Whether your workplace style is casual, business casual, or professional, custom apparel can be designed to match your brand and work environment.

Behind the Scenes at J&J Athletics: Custom Apparel Magic in Action

The holiday season brought plenty of excitement inside the J&J Athletics workshop, and not just from gift-giving. While many were busy checking off shopping lists, our team was hard at work producing custom apparel and promotional products through embroidery, screen printing, laser engraving, and specialty finishes. We’re giving you a behind-the-scenes look at some of the custom projects moving through our production floor, and we’re excited to share how the magic happens.

Precision Embroidery That Makes an Impression

Watching our commercial embroidery machines in action never gets old. Each stitch is carefully placed to create clean, professional designs that last through wear and washing. Embroidery remains a top choice for corporate apparel, uniforms, hats, and branded outerwear thanks to its durability and polished appearance.

Whether it’s a small logo or a detailed design, embroidery brings dimension and quality that elevates any custom garment.



High-Quality Screen Printing for Bold Designs

There’s nothing quite like seeing freshly printed shirts roll off the screen printing dryer. Screen printing allows us to produce vibrant, long-lasting graphics on t-shirts, hoodies, and more, perfect for team apparel, events, fundraisers, and promotions.

These cozy shirts are headed straight to happy recipients who’ll enjoy both comfort and standout design.



Combining Screen Printing & Embroidery

Why choose one when you can have both? Some projects call for a mix of screen printing and embroidery, allowing customers to blend bold graphics with textured, premium finishes. From layered designs to multi-garment orders, J&J Athletics helps bring creative visions to life without limits.

 

Laser Engraving with a Personal Touch 

Magic meets precision with laser engraving. Laser engraving delivers crisp, permanent results that won’t fade or peel, making it ideal for corporate gifts, employee appreciation items, and promotional products.

Add Sparkle with Glitter & Rhinestones

The holidays wouldn’t be complete without a little shine. Glitter and rhinestone designs add sparkle and personality to apparel, making them a favorite for cheer teams, dance groups, and festive events. These eye-catching finishes prove that custom apparel can be both fun and unforgettable.

Spirit Wear That Makes the Perfect Gift

Our online spirit wear stores were a popular choice this season, helping families find meaningful gifts for schools, teams, and organizations. The best part? Spirit wear is available year-round, not just during the holidays.

From hoodies to hats, spirit wear keeps communities connected and proud long after the gift wrap comes off.

Custom Apparel & Promotional Products (All Year Long!)

While the holidays bring extra cheer, the J&J Athletics workshop stays busy all year. We specialize in custom solutions for:

  • Corporate apparel and branded workwear
  • Team uniforms and sports apparel
  • Event merchandise and fundraiser gear
  • Promotional products and custom accessories

We offer a wide selection of trusted, name-brand apparel, including premium and eco-friendly options, to fit every style, budget, and purpose. No matter the size of your order, our team is ready to help you create apparel that represents your brand or organization with confidence.
