Welcome to the official vbs apparel blog! We’re excited to share our ideas, processes, and products with you. Our goal is to be your total apparel and merchandise solution, no matter what your goals and budget are.
We’ve got a long history in providing decorated apparel and sports uniforms. Since 1999, we have operated as Volleyball Stuff, getting our start selling volleyball equipment and apparel out of the Calgary Volleydome. Our business grew from there, and now we have an additional location in Surrey, BC in addition to our office and warehouse in Calgary. Since 2018 we have been the official merchandise supplier for Volleyball Canada and are the Official Event Supplier at the annual Youth National Championships, the largest youth sporting event in Canada. While we got our start in volleyball apparel, it wasn’t long before we started gaining experience in more sports and more types of organizations, and in 2022 we rebranded as vbs apparel to expand our reach to multi-sport events, school athletics wear, and corporate apparel.
Now, in 2024, we are more capable than ever of creating solutions for whatever your apparel needs may be. Sports uniforms remain a core part of our business, and we can design customized club and school uniforms for just about any sport and team size. But even beyond uniforms, we are excited and passionate about providing comfortable, attractive, and attention-grabbing apparel to suit all kinds of organizations and events. We have proudly partnered with large multi-sport events like the 2022/2023 Greater Vernon BC Winter Games, developed the total athletics wear package for schools like Langley Christian School and Mulgrave School, and provided elite branded apparel for organizations like the Calgary Flames and Mowi Canada, and are excited to see what partnerships the future has in store!
We are passionate about the importance of customer service and developing processes to make your jobs easier. When our founders, Harvey, Ryan, and Sanjiv, first set about growing the business, it became clear that there was a real room for improvement in the industry when it came to customer service and customer-focused processes.
What does that mean? It means that we’ve got a lot of ideas for ways to make your lives easier. Whether that’s using our top-quality graphic designers to redesign all your apparel into a cohesive, great look, or using our online custom stores to take the burden of managing orders and inventory off your hands, we’ve got you. We can design unique merchandise for even the biggest sport events in Canada, staff and supply merchandise booths for onsite sales and excitement, and with our range of over 50 apparel suppliers, including an exclusive partnership with lululemon, we can provide something to suit every budget. We provide a dedicated customer service representative for your account so you are always in the loop regarding your apparel’s development, and can schedule and approve your recurring apparel needs in advance to help take even planning for the future off your plate.
