Bayou Blanks is the no-hoops alternative to S&S Activewear. S&S is a true wholesale distributor — you register and log in just to see pricing, and wholesale is for business accounts (personal users see retail). Bayou is open to anyone: the per-unit price is right on the page, no account, buy a single pack at a flat $4.25/unit.
S&S Activewear is a wholesale distributor built for businesses — you must register and log in just to see pricing; Bayou shows the per-unit price to anyone, no account.
Wholesale pricing at S&S is for business accounts and asks for business details and a resale certificate; personal users see retail. Bayou is one price for everyone, no paperwork.
Bayou sells by the pack with no business-sized order required — a single 4-pack at $4.25/unit, down to $2.92 by the 12-pack.
Same price on every size at Bayou — a 4XL is the same $4.25/unit as a small — while the brands S&S carries upcharge for 2XL and up.
Honest trade-off: S&S's true wholesale case pricing can beat Bayou per unit if you're a business buying full cases of specific brands, and its 100+ brand catalog is far deeper.
Where Bayou wins: anyone can buy, no account or license, small orders welcome, and flat extended-size pricing.

Yes — you have to register and log in just to see S&S pricing. Business customers get wholesale pricing (and are asked for business details and a resale certificate), while personal users see retail. Bayou requires none of that: the price is on the page and anyone can buy a single pack.
It depends on how you buy. S&S's true wholesale case pricing on brand basics can go below $4.25 per unit if you're a business ordering full cases. Bayou wins on small and mid orders, on flat pricing across every size, and on access — no account, no resale certificate, no business required.
You can register as a personal user, but you'll see retail pricing — wholesale needs business details and a resale certificate. Bayou is one price for everyone with no business required, which helps if you're a side hustle, a team, or just want blanks without the paperwork.
No. Bayou prices every size the same — a 4XL is the same $4.25/unit as a small. The brand blanks S&S carries add a size upcharge starting at 2XL, so extended sizes is where Bayou's gap is widest.
Selection. Bayou stocks around 85 curated overstock styles, not S&S's 100+ brand catalog. If you need a specific brand and color in bulk, S&S's range and case pricing are deeper; if you want blanks with no account and a flat per-unit price, Bayou wins.
Use S&S if you're an established decorator or reseller buying cases of specific brands and you already have a business account. Use Bayou when you want to buy blanks now with no account or license — especially small-to-mid orders and extended or plus sizes.
