Default CONTINENTAL UK - Continental vs EarthPositive??

Just looking at the prices for Continental T-Shirts and it seems as if the EarthPositive T-Shirts are cheaper than the Continental T-Shirt even though they are of same thickness and are organic cotton.

What would be the reason for this.

Are they the same to cad cut vinyl heat press?

Thanks for any help

I think the reason why they are cheaper is due to the fact that they cost less to produce. If you read the description of EarthPositive clothing they use energy from wind turbines. They must be passing this saving onto the customer.

I usually buy Continental t-shirts but after I tried out there EarthPositive ones I will be sticking with them. Hopefully they will bring a few more colours out in the future though.

Thanks for your reply. Do you feel that the quality and is an good as the normal continental tshirts 165g?? I am only sourcing T-Shirts at the moment, I want the white T-Shirts to be as thin as 165g but not see through like some manufacturers tee?

Thanks

Andrew

Yeah the quality is excellent. I also prefer them over continentals 165g t-shirt because I was never fond of the over lock stitching that your can see round the arms and hem on there 165g t-shirt.

Yep, there is a obvious difference aswell, in that the EarthPositive Apparel is all 100% certified organic cotton, which is considered 'carbon neutral', as it is made using wind power, using low impact farming and a low water footprint, and more uniquely, EarthPositive is fully carbon footprinted, meaning we can label each garment, showing the CO2e emission reductions (heady stuff!)

Of course our Continental garments are still extremely popular, depending on what type of garment you are requiring.
