  • Can someone recomend a good t-shirt supplier

    Posted by Stephen Henderson on 3 June 2009 at 14:44

    Hello folks, I have been asked by a client to supply and print a few t-shirts, But all I can find are white ones and polyester, these are no good. I need Black ones. They would like a good quality shirt and would also like them to be done with OBM,I don’t mind the fact they want them done with OBM as the logo is quite small and I will make some money from doing them that way, The sample t-shirts that I had were purchased from a local cash and carry, not very good quality as after they were washed a few times the neck resembled the entrance to the Clyde tunnel. I know that these are only for "give a ways" but they still have to be of good quality and as cheap as possible, so any help please would be great

    Thanks

    BTC

    I have tried all the rest, Prestige, Pencarrie, Ralawise, UKL etc
    BTC are the best by far.

    If you only need a few shirts lots of city centre shops do 3 for a tenner Gildan 2000, its ok if you need a few in an emergency, if not Primark or Matalan can bail you out sometimes.

    Why do you think they’re better Steve?

    We’ve been dealing with Prestige for a few years now but always keep our eyes open for other sellers.

    Well, they seem to be cheaper, delivery and pricing, very reliable.
    Have several depots so one nearby for everyone, no minimum order, and very quick to sort out problems.
    I just prefer them over the rest, it is only a personal choice after all but its just my experience.

    Not sure if this is any use but http://www.ethicstar.com have some pretty cheap shirts and lots of other garments.

    Cheers,

    Agree with Steve, BTC have never let me down on delivery, they hold large stocks, and prices are always either cheaper or on par with their competition. If I cannot get my goods at BTC there is always UKL and failing that Pencarrie.

    I used to use ukleisurewear but changed to btc as their prices are much better for lower quantities. They do a good range of stuff too. very good service, and online ordering.
