Default M&O Knits quality

I was just wondering what the quality of M&O Knits t's are. I like the cut and they have a pretty good colour selection, but how do they hold up?

I'm pretty sure Rodney has used them and liked them. The sample I have is nice.

In your opinion do you think the quality is good enough for private label use? Will the shape and color hold up over time?

I really like M & O Knits. A very good value ringspun cotton t-shirt. I've used them for private label (relabeled them with my own tags).

They used to be easier to get via TSCApparel.com, but now they are doing their own distribution.

When I last talked to them they hadn't setup all their warehouses yet from the transition, but they may have worked it all now.

On their website it shows that they have a distribution center out of Los Angeles. I will have to see if it is up and running on Monday. As far as quality, where would you rank M&O Knits if that's possible. Is it a better quality than Gildan, Fruit of the Loom or Hanes? I just don't want to put a shirt out there with my brand name on it just to have the shirt fall apart and loose its shape after a year or two.
But overall, it sounds like you where happy with them. Thanks again.

It depends on the private label (target demographic, etc.), but in theory sure.

I haven't really tested the sample I have, so while my gut feeling says yes, that's not backed up by any actual tests.

(Rodney can give you better information than I can, I figured it's just nice to have more than one opinion)

To me it seems like a shirt that fits comfortably between those brands, and brands like AA, Alternative, Continental, etc. I don't recall their pricing, but assuming that's in line I think if they had better name recognition and distribution, they'd be doing very well.

I prefer it over Gildan and Fruit of the Loom because it's ringspun cotton (softer). It's less expensive than Hanes' ringspun beefy tee, so it gets a couple of points there
