Our Story

Dads. Daughters. One very long season.

We're dads who spend more time in gymnastics gyms than we ever thought possible — cheering our daughters through beam, bars, and every 6 AM Saturday meet.

Somewhere between the chalk dust and the "just one more skill, Dad!", we started making merch. Shirts for the parents freezing in the stands. Hats for the coaches. Keychains for the girls who earn every one.

Every design is pressed, engraved, or stuck by hand — by us — for teams we know and teams we're getting to know.

Right now we're outfitting the Mermaids. Next up? Your team, maybe.
