Steve Schlesinger brings over 30 years of experience in branded merchandise, apparel decoration, and creative production to the Sidebar team. Raised in Southern California, Steve’s roots are a blend of energy and artistry—from days spent surfing and skiing to nights sketching and painting. That creative streak led him to a degree in Graphic Design from Northern Arizona University and eventually to founding his own apparel company, Fabtex Graphics, in 2001.
For more than two decades, Steve helped brands turn big ideas into wearable impact—building his business through consistency, craft, and strong client relationships. In 2025, he joined Sidebar as Client Experience Director, transitioning from creative partner to internal strategist. Today, Steve draws on his production expertise and sharp eye for design to help clients develop branded goods and apparel that support both high-impact events and day-to-day business needs.
From customized merchandise to seamless fulfillment and tech-driven recognition programs, Steve helps Sidebar clients connect the dots between creative ideas and real-world results—with service that’s thoughtful, fast, and always on point.
