Custom Merch for Bands in Dallas, TX
Merch Mob makes tour tees, hoodies for cold dates, and hats and beanies for bands in Dallas, TX, at its shop in Montclair, CA, and ships them to Dallas. College students are a smaller slice of Dallas than of the US, 5% of residents aged 3 and up against 7% (Census ACS, 2020-2024), so plan for a wider age range: hoodies, caps and standard-fit tees in a full size run.
Dallas by the numbers
Dallas has 1,329,491 residents, up 1.9% since 2020 (Census estimates).
Dallas County has 39 musical groups and artists with paid employees (Census County Business Patterns, 2023). That is 0.15 for every 10,000 residents, slightly below the national figure of 0.17. 85% of them employ fewer than 10 people. The count is up 15% from 34 in 2018.
The Census only counts acts with a payroll, so most bands, which have none, are not in this figure.

What Dallas's weather means for bands
An average August high of 97°F makes heavy black cotton a hard sell at an open-air show in Dallas, so lead with soft, light-colored tees and caps for any daytime set. Pack a stack of hoodies for winter club dates, when January nights average 38°F, and give the rest of the van to tees, tanks and caps. Tees carry the table from March to October, when average highs reach 70°F, the stretch when outdoor stages are likeliest. About 22 days a year reach 100°F, so keep boxed stock out of the hottest part of the van and set the table in shade for any afternoon date. October is the wettest month, at about 4.8 inches, so bring a tarp or tent for any outdoor table that month.
