REBEL ATHLETIC & SCHOOL CHEER
SIDELINE CHIC REDEFINING THE TRADITIONAL SIDELINE UNIFORM
COMPETITION STYLE UNIFORMS THAT TURN HEADS
We offer a distinct difference from other cheerleading uniform providers. When faced with the question, “Why? Why should I use Rebel Athletic instead of my current/usual uniform company?” here is what sets us apart:
-Rebel does not charge per letter. -Price. Rebel offers more options and collections to get you what YOU want! -Length adjustments to uniform sleeves, shells, and skirts are FREE of charge! -Uniforms arrive pre-packaged with the athletes name and size which means NO SORTING for the coaches!
REBEL ADVANTAGES
-Rebel designs are never discontinued or “retired.” -There is no minimum on uniform re-orders and the price is locked in for 2 years. -We provide a FREE prototype of uniforms & warmups -Our proprietary fabric is moisture-wicking and anti-microbial -Our material has stretchhhhh. Which means it’s more comfortable on your athletes and fits them better. Plus, our school skirts have elastic built into the waistband for comfort and stretch and a more custom looking fit for no extra fee.
REBEL ADVANTAGES

Join the rebellion
Founded in Fashion, Inspired by Dance
• Pastry was launched during the height of Reality TV on a MTV show called “Run’s House.”
• Following international success in
the fashion sneaker market, Pastry identified a need for fashionable sneakers in the dance market. Dance sneakers that were comfortable, show stoppers and helped a dancer nail their moves. America’s #1 Dance Sneaker was born.
