Giving Back to Our Community
Boston Public Schools Partnership
We're passionate about working with Boston Public Schools, many of which don't have the resources to frequently update their practice wear and uniforms. Our goal is to ensure every student athlete has access to quality apparel they can be proud of.
The Prep Shop & BLM Collection
Beyond sportswear, we launched The Prep Shop featuring our Black Lives Matter collection. We believe in using our platform to promote positive change and stand behind the causes that matter to our community.
