Trust me, you didn't miss anything!

We were there right at 10 Saturday morning when it opened. We left at noon, and there may have been 20 other people there the whole time.

I didn't think the sample from Pima was that bad, but the stuff that they had one the racks weren't that good. They could have at least ironed them!

Did you check out the guy from Professional Designs with the hats? He can do some pretty good stuff with hats. I was very impressed with the hats.

reporting back.

greg and i have the same outlook...bleak.
maybe it was college football games, week before thanksgiving, few vendors, clothing and hats only, etc.
it was quiet and not enough vendors showed up.
there may have been 20-25 not the 30's that was scheduled.
i also think the iss show in atlanta was scheduled too close to this show.

i did enjoy the eternal apparel booth and the rep was very helpful. The pima apparel reps have good ideas for new products to come. s&s activewear has new lines being added. they also said that jerzees ringspun will drop close in price to the gildans ringspun when it debuts.

overall...i was pleased for the simple fact of meeting my reps, discussing new products and pricing. i hope it will return since i live in nashville. if not i will be on i-75 to atlanta.
