I need some help here. All the suppliers we use (Alphabroder, S&S Activewear, Staton, Heritage, TSC) are all out of the G424000 sports grey in large.

I have 2 jobs that need to go out ASAP. Does anyone have 25 of the G42400 sports grey large that you would like to sell to help me out?

Thanks
Larry

Sorry ... what is the GS42400? The only place I see it coming up via google is in your post? Any chance there's a different stock number?

Reason for asking .....

I was looking for a specific Gildan tri-blend a couple weeks ago. After several days of searching, I contacted Gildan directly and found that they were no longer selling this specific shirt under the Gildan name for "wholesale purchasers."

Instead, they'd started selling the identical shirt under the Anvil name ...

The G42400 is their polyester tee that looks and feels like a regular tee. To the best of my knowledge is still a good number, just has issues with certain sizes.

Wish I could help ....

Looked through the sources I had (none that you'd mentioned) and "nothing."

As a last option, I'd contact Gildan directly and just ask. Be patient, though. My experience is that it takes 3-4 business days for them to respond to any question.

Does anyone have a phone number for a gildan sales rep that you could pm me?

I really need to find some of these tees.

Thanks

YOu can also go to mygildan.com ... they list all of their product line there and have links as to where to buy.

Gildan's website is showing almost no inventory in that shirt style nationwide (and separated by a bunch of different distributors). According to their site, there isn't a single "L" size available anywhere.

Must be what they are going to print the Super Bowl shirts on or something.

Thanks- I use the locator daily and have even called gildan (still waiting for a return call).

I did some looking too and wasn't able to find any Gildan G424 in sport grey in size large. It looks like maybe there will be some more stock in the beginning of February.

If you aren't set on 100% polyester, the Gildan G840 is 50/50 cotton polyester, is available in sport grey in size large, and is a great option. The All Sport M3009 is a 100% polyester option, but the closest color option would be Sport Silver.

Hope that helps! Good luck

In calling all the distributors for gildan this week, I have a customer service rep tell me their buyer said that gildan is building a new facility next to the mill for drop shipments of less than case quantities. Which supposedly many of the distributors are sending some inventory items back their to reduce inventory and those items will now drop ship from North Carolina instead.

Not too sure how accurate this is...........has a little bs smell to it. I think gildan has major supply issues and can's get their sh*t together.................

If you do a search for Gildan shirts in wikipedia, there's some interesting information that fits with what I picked up via some email responses.

Looks like perhaps Gildan is moving to turn their own brand into a retail item while shifting their wholesale distributions to the Anvil brand.

I'd no idea until I researched it a bit that Gildan not only owns Anvil but also American Apparel, Auro, and Gold Pro.

... and Alstyle Apparel.
Lo be unto any company whose name starts with an "A"

I have noticed Gildan Black Label as an effort to "up market" the brand. And they have the new Hammer shirts that are 6 oz ringspun, so, yeah, maybe it is a push into retail.
