Merch Mob makes printed jerseys, practice shirts, and warmups and team hoodies for sports teams in Charlotte, NC, at its shop in Montclair, CA, and ships them to Charlotte.

Weather: Charlotte Douglas Airport station, 7 mi from Charlotte's center (NOAA 1991-2020 Climate Normals). People: Census ACS 2020-2024. Counts: CBP 2023, by county, paid-employee establishments. Population: Census, July 2025.
What Charlotte's weather means for sports teams
Charlotte sees about 49 days a year at 90°F or more, so a breathable practice tee per player covers the warm months, with a spare for tournament weekends in the heat. January highs average 52°F, so a team hoodie sees regular use in winter, and for the rest of the year a practice tee and a cap carry most sessions. With 7 months of tee weather (April to October, average highs of 70°F or more), short-sleeve practice kits do most of the work, and a long sleeve covers the weeks on either side. Expect about 58 nights a year at 32°F or below, enough that the earliest games in the coldest weeks start near freezing; team joggers over game shorts keep players warm until kickoff. Rain peaks in August at about 4.4 inches, so teams playing then need practice gear that dries fast and a water-resistant jacket for the bench.
