Custom Merch for Skate and Surf Shops in Laredo, TX
Merch Mob makes house-brand tees, hoodies and crewnecks, and hats and beanies for skate and surf shops in Laredo, TX, at its shop in Montclair, CA, and ships them to Laredo. In Laredo, 31% of residents are under 18, well above the US figure of 22% (Census ACS, 2020-2024), so youth sizes of the house tee and hoodie deserve a real share of the order, not a token run.

What Laredo's weather means for skate and surf shops
With about 178 days a year at 90°F or above, more than a third of the year, the house tee in Laredo has to be light and breathable, and a tank or sleeveless cut earns a spot on the rack. January is as cool as it gets, with an average high of 68°F, so a hoodie sells for night sessions and as a souvenir rather than as core stock. Tee weather, a 70°F average high or warmer, runs February to November, long enough to support two tee drops a year, one in spring and one after the worst of the summer heat. With about 74 days a year at 100°F or hotter, soft prints matter: a water-based print on a light-colored blank breathes better in the heat than a heavy plastisol block.
