Merch Mob makes barista tees and caps, retail hoodies and crewnecks, and beanies for coffee shops in Stockton, CA, at its shop in Montclair, CA, and ships them to Stockton. In Stockton, 7% of residents aged 3 and older are in college or graduate school, in line with the US 7% but under the 8% statewide (Census ACS, 2020-2024), so design for working locals first, with a gift-ready hoodie.

What Stockton's weather means for coffee shops
Stockton sees roughly 90 days a year at 90°F or hotter, peaking at an average high of 95°F in August, so barista shirts should be light in weight but dark enough to hide coffee stains. Hot-drink weather is brief, with highs under 65°F only from December to January, so keep the fleece order small, one hoodie design and a beanie, and land it before the holidays. Winter mornings turn cool, with lows near 39°F in December, which makes a long-sleeve tee or light crewneck the most useful extra layer for the opening crew.
