About the Glacier Grid University Rowing Top
University boat clubs and summer rowing camps order kit by the squad, and Glacier Grid is built for those bulk runs. The chest is clean white for a crest and club name, the sleeves are sky blue with navy cuffs, and the lower body moves into navy through a diagonal band of sky-blue and white squares. Clubs can order one design for every crew, from first-year novices to the senior squad, which keeps a squad photo looking uniform.
A navy crew collar ties the colours together. Light upper panels look cool in summer sun on the water, while the darker lower half hides marks from the seat and footstretcher. The geometric fade gives the design movement without busy detail. The white chest also gives sponsors a clear, uncluttered area for their logo.
Fabric is an 88% polyester, 12% elastane performance knit, approx. 170–180 GSM, with 4-way stretch and flatlock seams. It wicks sweat, dries quickly, and its stretch recovery stops the hem from riding up when rowers reach forward at the catch. Raglan sleeves and a close cut leave the shoulders free for a full reach and a clean release.
For bulk buyers, tentative FOB pricing falls from $10.00–$12.00 per piece at 50–99 to $8.50–$10.00 at 100–499 and $7.50–$8.50 at 500 or more. Camps that need several hundred tops can ship by sea freight to cut the landed cost per piece. Smaller clubs often start at 50 pieces and move up a price tier the following year as membership grows.
Universities add crests, college names and year-group marks; camps print the camp name and season. Everything is sublimated in our own ISO 9001:2015 factory after a free 3D mock-up. Paid samples take 15–20 working days, credited against bulk, and bulk takes 2–3 weeks from approval. Year-group or college marks can sit on the sleeve so the main design stays the same for future reorders.
We supply Glacier Grid to universities, schools and camps in the USA, Canada, the UK and New Zealand. Contact sales@blackthorn-textile.com or WhatsApp +92 332 832 8802 for a squad quote. We can also split delivery between campuses or boathouses when asked.

Frequently asked questions
Can universities order rowing tops in bulk for the whole club?
Yes. Order from 50 pieces per design and mix men's, women's and junior cuts in sizes XS–4XL. Prices drop at 100 and 500 pieces, and we keep your artwork on file so repeat orders each academic year are quick.
Will a white rowing top stain easily?
The white sits on the chest and shoulders, while the lower body, which touches the seat and picks up most marks, is navy. Wash at 30°C inside out and avoid bleach; sublimated colours will not wash out of the fabric.
Can rowing camps order tops with the camp year printed?
Yes. Camps often print the camp name and season on the back. Each version with different artwork counts as a separate design with a 50-piece MOQ, so many camps keep the year off the design and reorder the same top each summer.
How long does shipping to the USA or Canada take?
Air courier by DHL, UPS or FedEx usually arrives within about a week of dispatch. Sea freight takes longer but costs less for large camp or distributor orders. Bulk is dispatched 2–3 weeks after sample approval.
