Default Performance shirts

I am looking for a shirt that is as close to the UnderArmour shirt material as possible. Is the Zorrell brand that I've been reading about in other posts the closest thing? I've always been on the design end of the screen printing business, and am still learning about different shirts, so forgive me if this a novice question.

Talking Re: Performance shirts

Is UnderArmour the clothing line where the shirt does not stick to the skin when you sweat?

Default Re: Performance shirts

The zorrels are nothing like the underarmor shirts. They have a waffled texture to them and are not tight-fitting like the UA ones (This only applies to the syntrel shirts - 100% poly). The only thing I've seen that comes close is made by Wikid:

Short Sleeve
Long Sleeve

I have not tested any of the wikid fabrics yet.

Vapor makes a material that is similar although not as stretchy. It is cut far too generously to compare to UA (IMO).

You'll have to signup at wholesale websites to get wholesale pricing.

Default Re: Performance shirts

any word on a good "dri-fit" performance tee???!

im having a hard time trying to track down a supplier.

more concerned about quality than cost. (ideally looking for the product to rival nike, etc... lightweight, cool, comfortable, air-permeability, quick drying. think most of these are a micro-fiber polyester fabric)

feedback on supplier options and what's worked well for you.

have to have the ability to re-brand/re-label the performance tee, and print on it.

thanks much!!

Default Re: Performance shirts

You can find the actual UnderArmour knit shirt material at Magna Fabrics in North Bergen, New Jersey. The prices for the fabrics are very reasonable at about $1 to $1.50 a yard 1) Magna Fabrics only sells the fabric and does not sell or manufacture the t-shirts or other garments 2) The Underarmour name and logo is highly protected by trademark and in no case can you use the Underarmour trade name or logo if you purchase the fabrics from Magna Fabrics or use this fabric in a t-shirt.
You can reach Magna Fabrics at [email address]

Hello, I am new to this so I hope this post helps. There is a company in Los Angeles by the name of Expert Performance T. They manufacture Performance Apparel exactly like UnderArmour. The material is Polyester and the technology behind it is called Moisture Wicking check out Performance Apparel :: Athletic Apparel :: Los Angeles :: Miami :: New York for more info. Hope that helped
