Epic Sports

What Epic Sports does

Epic Sports, Inc. is a privately held, Kansas-based e-commerce retailer of sporting goods and custom team apparel. The company operates a multi-sport storefront architecture — epicsports.com plus sport-specific subdomains for soccer, baseball, softball, basketball, football, volleyball, cheerleading, lacrosse, swimming, playground and fan gear — supported by a 5+ acre warehouse facility in Bel Aire, Kansas and a stated headcount band of 51-100 employees. Its catalog spans apparel, footwear, headwear, accessories, balls, bags, protective/compression gear and equipment across 10+ sports, with adjacency into a workwear/business apparel vertical.

The company's product set extends beyond resale into light customization: FreeStyle design-your-own sublimated uniforms, custom embroidered logo design (one-time $30 digitization fee, $5-$10 per-item embroidery cost), and screen printing are offered across major sports. The Epic Team Store is a self-serve platform that allows coaches and organizers to launch dedicated storefronts for unified team purchasing, and the Epic Gold Points loyalty program converts sub-$10 store credits at a 3:1 ratio with an 18-month expiry to drive repeat purchases.

Commercially, Epic Sports sells direct to consumer through its owned e-commerce site, with secondary channels including toll-free phone ordering, fax, mail-in check payments, and a purchase-order acceptance workflow reserved for verified public schools, government entities, and publicly funded programs. Shipping is restricted to the U.S. only and billing to U.S. addresses. Pricing is unit-based with low entry points (basic apparel from $0.49, tees $1.99-$5.99, sublimated uniforms $19.99-$39.99, premium equipment up to $89.99+), positioning the company on everyday low pricing rather than bulk-only discounts, supplemented by a closeouts subdomain for discontinued manufacturer inventory. The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional funding, parent company, subsidiaries, M&A activity, or executive team; revenue is not publicly disclosed.
