Merch Mob makes member tees, coach and staff apparel, and challenge and competition shirts for gyms in San Diego, CA, at its shop in Montclair, CA, and ships them to San Diego. Across California, 24% of residents are 18 to 34; in San Diego it is 30%, against 23% nationally (Census ACS, 2020-2024), so training cuts and a design that works as streetwear can take a bigger share of the order.

What San Diego's weather means for gyms
In San Diego, the average high moves only between 67°F in January and 82°F in August, so a member tee sells in every month, and new designs keep the rack fresh more than new fabric weights do. Nights get cool, with December lows averaging 45°F, so a lightweight hoodie or quarter-zip sells to members at dawn and evening classes. Rain totals about 11 inches a year, so a wet day seldom cancels an outdoor class, and a run club or bootcamp tee can be timed around heat and cold rather than storms.
