My connection moved locations since my last purchase and I must fill an order quickly. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Doesnt need to be of Pro Club quality but not flimsy as an undershirt either. Thanx | |

How much under $1 are you looking for?
You may be able to negotiate a deal with one of the mills or a manufacturer (possibly overseas) for that kind of pricing.
Sometimes the major brands (like Gildan) are sold under a dollar from the major t-shirt wholesalers (like SanMar, TSCApparel, etc) | |

I bought some Gildan whites from SanMar and they are a good quality. I'm looking at their pricing catalog right now and they go for 1.24-1.41. | |

Sanmar makes their own shirts too so for 5,000 shirts I'm sure you could get a good deal from them.

Good luck finding them for a buck or less. SanMar's label is a FOL from my understanding. Thats not a large enough order to go to the mill with. Call your wholesale rep, he can get you close to that, but probably not under. | |

My rep said that PA was made by FOL. I dont know if the fit or the quality is the same, as I havent printed on any FOL t-shirts in years. And my rep could be wrong too, who knows...You can go to the mill with an order of 5K pieces, but I wouldnt expect them to cut you much of a deal, especially on white shirts. It would probably save time (and time is money, epescially in this industry) just to go to his local wholesaler. | |
