Are men's tees normally more expensive than women's (the retail prices not wholesale)? If so, what is the number? $5-$15 difference? And this is justified by the amount of supplies used - more fabric, thread etc?
Thanks
oh hold on, u r saying that women's t's are more than men's?
i buy my blanks for about 4, 4 and change for women's fashion cuts. depends on the wholesaler. see i haven't really worked with men's yet. i have the suppliers lined up, and have ordered samples, but haven't made too many orders that's why the pricing is not really registered in my mind yet
some of the clothing lines i see at magic, will sell a girls t sometimes at the same wholesale price as a mens t.... but then again, i see all female lines selling the same shirt 2x the wholesale amount... just because!

Talking wholesale, usually womens is more expensive. Talking retail, they're about the same, if anything womens is a bit more expensive because women are more willing to dish out money for clothes.
More fabric and thread doesn't mean a thing in retail.

When there's a difference it's usually the other way around. But within one manufacturer there normally isn't a difference. It's common for men's and women's shirts to be a difference price, but that's because it's common to use different brands for each (say, Gildan for men's and AA for women's).
I prefer not to have a price difference, and don't whenever possible, but if there's a cost difference then it's worth passing on (unless you think you can raise one to meet the other without negative affect I suppose).
If they are a stand t' and the customer is ordering alot.. say 50 of each kind.. I will charge my customer the same for both.. I think about the order as a whole.. If they want a special shirt.. say spagettie strap, boy beater or like that.. I just basically add the differance that i paid for the shirt into my price to the customer.. so the ladies shirts will be anywhere from 2-4 more than the mens.
Ann, 1st it depends on the operations involved. Our womens shirts have tape around the neck, which is more labor involved. if i were to make the womens shirts exactly like the mens, they would be cheaper. our womens shirts are smaller in width and length. also depends sometimes if it is a stocked item. if it is a custom cut and sew it will probably be a little more. hope this helps. - Edski.
