Hmm. Probably/kind of. Bearing in mind this is just one person's opinion, not legal advice, but...
If you relabel the shirts, you are responsible for them. So yes, you're liable. If you don't... you're still liable (the customer comes to you with a complaint, you fix it), but you can then pass on that complaint to the manufacturer. Thing is, best case scenario they will replace the blank shirts (and I do mean
best case), you'll still be out printing costs, good will, etc. So liable may not quite be the word.
