Question Seeking Alternative to June Tailor Soft n Stretchy Dark Transfers

I currently use June Tailor Dark Transfer Soft n Stretchy. I LOVE this stuff! It never fades when washing, it never chips, it can be washed regularly, it always works PERFECTLY! However, my local craft store no longer carries it. (It was cheaper to purchase it there than it was to go direct and purchase it)
I need somthing which is TRUELY stretchy, yet doesn't fade or chip and can be washed regularly. I usually make Vinyl transfer shirts, but I am occasionally asked to to something which requires transfer material, so I don't really want to buy 100+ sheets... just a small quantity.
Has anyone else used June Tailor Dark Soft n Stretchy and found something else just as good???

mflores,
Yes, the vinyl is soft and has some stretch to it. I have noticed that it seems to be more crisp and last longer (wash after wash) than silk screen. However, silkscreen is a better choice for high volume. Vinyl is better for smaller orders. If you're interested in vinyl there is a significant startup cost as you have to purchase the vinyl, vinyl cutter/plotter and heat press (if you don't already have one). I go through SignWarehouse.com for my vinyl.

Hey Jenn,

Jetpro sofstretch (JPSS) is a great stretchy paper but it is for lights. Mrdavid posted a link for you, if you still want to access the June Taylor darks paper.

Otherwise, I prefer IYA Dark (aka Ironall Dark paper). Alot of other folks seem to like JetWear Dark paper, too, but JetWear Dark is not stretchy like the IYA paper is.

Here is a list of the alternate names that the IYA Dark/Ironall Dark paper is sold under:
