Flare Custom

Which associations?

Association life has its own constraints — voted budgets, funding to justify, changing rosters. Our model adapts to them:

Non-profit sports clubs — match jerseys, training kit, tracksuits. See kitting out an amateur team.
Student and neighbourhood associations — event tees, member hoodies.
Organising associations — tournaments, charity runs, local festivals: participant tees and merchandising from €4.09 excl. VAT.
Volunteers and staff — bibs and staff tees from €12.94 excl. VAT (per 500).

Funding the kit: sponsors, grants, donations

Three classic levers your quote should serve:

Sponsors — their logos are sublimated at no extra cost, whatever their number or colours: every placement (chest, back, sleeve, shorts) can be monetised. See funding jerseys through sponsorship and logos & sponsors.
Grants — town hall, department, federation: our detailed, dated quote attaches directly to the file. See grants & funding.
Donations and patronage — donations to eligible associations open tax reductions for donors. See donations & patronage.

Quote, AGM vote, invoice: the association workflow

The quote is free, detailed (tiered unit prices excl. VAT, lead times) and issued within 48 h in the association's name — ready to be voted at a general meeting or by the committee before committing funds. The invoice carries the association's details for your accounts and grant paperwork. Payment by transfer, no subscription. See request a quote.

Changing rosters: restocks from 1 piece

A new member mid-season? Their jersey is produced identically, from 1 piece, from the archived design — same fabric, same colours, their name and number if needed. The association holds no stock. For collecting sizes at the start of the season, follow our method for taking a whole team's sizes. See club restocking and small quantities.

Lead times for a season start or an event

2 to 4 weeks of production after proof approval, or express depending on the product and workload. For jerseys ready in September, approve the design before summer; for a tournament or a run, plan backwards from the date. See turnaround times and when to order.
