I don't know of any that have the spandex component. But I've seen quite a few bamboo/organic cotton wholesalers like HTNaturals, DoBamboo, BambooClothes, ONNOtextiles, fairlinesportswear, continental clothing

You might not really need spandex, bamboo/cotton blend is pretty stretchy.

Where do you purchase t's with bamboo/cotton/spandex mix?

Why purchase that mix and can you afford it or actually represent it? Does your customer clammer for that textile mix?

I visited your website...very nice! I have purchased a bamboo/cotton/spandex mix t-shirt and found that it may suit my needs as a fabric for excercise/athletic wear. I am located in British Columbia, Canada (with relatives in your town) and looking for outlet for the a/n t-shirts.

I don't think organic t-shirts will work with sublimation printing since sublimation requires "man made" materials (like polyester) for the dye sub ink to adhere to the garment.

Do u know of the best quality shirt for this type of printing that could take the place of an organic shirt? I am starting up a t-shirt brand and I really wanted to go with organic made b/c they feel good and are of good quality(from what little I know) but i have heard they don't do good with heat presses. So what is my next best option for a great wearing t-shirt, not just those that companies use to print their logos on for workers to wear...

Organic cotton shirts and bamboo shirts work fine with "heat presses" and "heat transfers", but you asked about "sublimation" which is different than just "heat transfers".

Can you please clarify exactly what you plan to use as your decorating method? Meaning, will it only be Dye Sublimation, heat transfers, heat applied vinyl, screenprinting, direct-to-garment printing, or other?

As for your question on the "best quality shirt for this type of printing that could take the place of an organic shirt", it's a bit confusing on what you're asking.

Can you be more clear on what type of t-shirt quality you seek?

T-shirt quality can be measured by many things: type of material it is and how it should feel on the skin, how well the material can be printed to or have other materials heat applied to it, how it's sewed, the fit of the shirt, does it need to have certain properties such as moisture wicking?
