What Breakmark does
Breakmark designs, manufactures, and sells custom sports uniforms, team apparel, and accessories through a direct-to-consumer e-commerce platform at breakmark.com, serving amateur and club sports teams. Founded in 2005 by Mathew Goldblatt after he designed custom sweatshirts for his high school track team and later his college ultimate frisbee team, the company is headquartered with a distributed U.S. team across North Carolina, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Washington, Arkansas, and Minnesota, and operates production facilities in Massachusetts, North Carolina, and Egypt.
The core product is custom team apparel produced using full and solid sublimation printing, covering jerseys, shorts, hooded and sleeveless tops, polos, reversibles, tanks, and accessories such as hats, blankets, bandanas, and socks. Pricing is structured around three tiered bundles (MVP at $90, Epic at $100, Legend at $110) offering 56-62% discounts versus individual item pricing, plus à la carte items ranging from $20 to $65. The company also runs a Collaboration Store platform that allows partner teams and organizations to operate branded storefronts, retaining 20% of sales for fundraising, with 1,000+ collaborations completed and 50,000+ customers served cumulatively.
Breakmark's primary go-to-market is direct online sales combined with organic social channels (Instagram, Facebook, X) and a partnership model anchored by premier ultimate frisbee leagues (Western Ultimate League, Premier Ultimate League). Custom orders are made-to-order with a 20-25 business day production cycle; no returns or exchanges are accepted, and free shipping applies to team orders shipped to a single location. The company remains privately held and founder-controlled with no disclosed institutional funding.
