BOW BOW CHEER SHOP

Little storytime – Would you like to get to know us?

This page always refers to "us" – I'm actually a small startup consisting of just one person. However, I regularly have interns and student trainees who also help design the shop. Additionally, some good friends from the cheerleading world advise me with their expertise.

So: Hi! I'm Zuza.

I did cheerleading for several years—most of that time as a coach and also for a while as a head coach. My goal was always to develop youth in a sustainable way.

Professionally, I first studied print media, then product design, and finally photography. That means I've truly learned what I do here from the ground up.

It all started a few years ago with gym bags. I never liked those plastic things with plastic drawstrings. So I started designing custom gym bags for teammates or other cheerleaders and sewing them myself out of sturdy cotton—truly one-of-a-kind pieces. That was a cool time!

After about two years, I stopped and returned to my job. I was tired of sewing the same basic shape over and over again—and I simply earned more money in my profession.

But the idea of ​​having my own shop never died. Unfortunately, the market doesn't offer many beautiful things, so as a designer, it was a natural choice for me to start something myself.

So – here we are.

The "we" and "us," as I said, represent my community—which you're now welcome to join. I'm really looking forward to responding to your requests!

The first collaboration has already been launched – with a small, super cute startup: Pullunder mit Mesh by Liz . I'm hungry for more! So share your ideas.

Because the world already has enough overproduction (and a small startup can't afford to be left with too much stock anyway), I decided to work with small limited editions and have many items printed only to order. This means that some products will unfortunately be delivered in different packages – but in return, nothing is produced for free that no one ultimately wants.

By the way, many of the things you see in the photos are secondhand – this allowed me to save money and have a sound logo produced right from the start. You can find out more about this story in the blog post.

I look forward to getting to know you on social media too – see you soon!

FAQ

Who designs all this?

I handle most of the work. My dedicated interns are allowed to take on some tasks as part of their mandatory internship. They work independently on products from start to finish, learning the fundamentals and principles of design in a hands-on way. We all benefit from this.

Where do all the articles come from?

From different manufacturers. But most of it is produced on demand—that is, only when you order it.

Can you design something for your team?

Sure! Send your request with quantity, product, and desired order to hello@bowbowcheershop.com and we'll send you a customized quote.

Will more designs be coming online?

Yes, we still have a lot in the pipeline. More and more will be added gradually, and you're welcome to share your ideas with us. We also regularly run polls in our social media stories – we'd love for you to take part. That way, we all benefit.

Can you work with or for you?

We're always happy to collaborate! Cheerleading is a team effort – and networking is incredibly important. While we don't currently have any openings, please subscribe to our newsletter. We'll also keep you informed about new job openings there.
