What is Bayside?
Bayside, often listed as Bayside Apparel, is a United States manufacturer of basic garments. It is best known for T-shirts and other blanks made in the USA, part of which are labelled union made.
Products and positioning
The range covers everyday basics designed to be printed, embroidered or otherwise decorated:
- Short sleeve, long sleeve, pocket, V-neck and raglan T-shirts
- Men's, women's and youth cuts
- Heavyweight tees and waffle knit thermals
- Performance and high visibility safety tees
Union made styles such as the 2905 cotton tee and the 2955 long sleeve T-shirt are among the most widely listed products. The company has also produced a "True American Made Tee" and, during 2020, face masks.
Distribution
Bayside sells mainly through wholesale and blank apparel distributors, such as Blankstyle, T-Shirt Wholesaler and Rush Order Tees, which supply printers, merchandise companies and organisations. Production has been brought in house in Brea, California.
Why it matters
At a time when the great majority of clothing sold in the United States is imported, Bayside is one of the few suppliers of blank apparel that emphasises domestic and union made production. That makes it a reference point for buyers of promotional and branded merchandise who need USA made garments.
