Hello all,

Hope everyone is having a great holiday season. I finally went thru the grueling process of registering for an account (pun intended ) after crusing the board for the past month. I have learn a ton about this industry and want to thank everyone for their insight and advice.

My buddy and I are ready to get our company rolling now that our trademark has been approved. We already found the shirts we will be using (Hanes Beefy Tees) and have a bunch of support from local screenprinters.

One question I did have as we try to add more to our collection, does anyone know where I can find track jackets or military style jackets? I've done some searches on Alibaba but most companies are looking for a big min. order. Any info is greatly appreciated.

Welcome to the forums.

It would be helpful if you could post an example picture of what kind of jacket you're looking for.

Something like that...Maybe some parkas as well. For trackjackets, I would want to go the polyester route

Hmm.. I don't know of any place selling jackets like that for printing. You will probably have to have it custom made.

You might have more luck finding track jackets. Try American Apparel, I think they have a few different styles in those.

Lots of companies do cotton trackjackets (AA have a nice range for example), but I don't know about polyester. Do you want them for dye sublimation?

Not too sure about dye sublimation, I'll have to read up on that . I was looking for that shiny look that is also durable in the wash. Maybe a cotton/polyester mix would be good too. I saw AA's site and their jackets are nice. Only problem is that they carry up to XL. I'm looking for S or M all the way up to XXL.
