Bulk custom gym towels start at 100 units, take around four weeks to produce, and need shipping time on top. This guide walks Australian clubs, gyms and businesses through how a branded towel order actually works: why the 100 unit minimum exists and how to clear it without over-committing, how to plan backwards from your date so towels arrive before presentation night rather than after it, who orders branded towels and why they outperform most club merch, and what separates a gym towel from a beach towel when you are choosing which one to brand. Includes the five things that most often slow an order down, how customisation is priced, and answers to the questions clubs ask most.

Hoodie GSM is the weight of the fabric in grams per square metre, and it is the fastest way to work out whether a hoodie will actually get worn. Most Australian clubs sit best between 290 and 320 GSM, step up to 350 GSM for genuine cold-weather training, and save 500 GSM for a premium piece people keep for years. This guide explains what GSM does and does not tell you, compares the six custom hoodie bodies Empulse runs side by side on weight, fit and price, and covers how fabric weight changes your embroidery and print options. It also covers the fit question most clubs get wrong, what to ask a supplier about fibre content, and how customisation quoting works on club orders.

Ordering club hoodies usually turns into an argument about weight. Heavier feels like better value, so most people default to the thickest fleece they can afford. That instinct is wrong more often than it is right. This guide breaks down what GSM actually measures, how the six live Empulse hoodie and half-zip bodies compare on weight, fabric, fit and price, and which one suits training kit, school merch, staff uniform or a proper end-of-season keepsake. It also covers the details buyers forget: drawcords, print surfaces, drying time and what recycled content certification really certifies. Australian weather data included, because the coldest month in Melbourne is milder than most kit decisions assume.

Custom tees in Australia come down to one decision most people get backwards: cotton or Sorona. AS Colour cotton blanks are built to carry a print, hold their shape through club washing and read properly as merch. The Sorona range is a partially bio-based performance blend that moves sweat and dries fast, which matters more than you would think in an Australian summer. This guide breaks down the GSM differences across the custom tee range, explains what Sorona actually is (and why it is not just polyester), looks at what the research says about whether quick-dry fabric improves performance, and sets out a simple way to choose for a club, gym, school or business order.

Custom soccer shorts are the piece of kit clubs think about last and complain about most. This guide covers what actually matters when you order for a squad: getting a consistent fit across men's, women's and junior cuts, what the research really says about moisture-wicking fabric, and the colour-availability trap that catches teams ordering matched kit across multiple cuts. We also cover the IFAB rule on undershorts that decides what colour compression layers your players are allowed to wear, printing and personalisation options for logos, numbers and sponsor names, and live pricing on genuine Nike and Adidas shorts from the Empulse range. Includes a side-by-side comparison table and answers to the questions clubs ask us most.

Empulse has added two new heavyweight pieces to the custom apparel range: the 500 GSM Custom Made Crew and the recycled-fleece Custom Relax Half-Zip Hoodie. Both take your logo or design, both are priced at $99, and this guide breaks down the fabric, fit and customisation options for each so you know which one suits your club, business or wardrobe.
