Hello Everyone!

I have been searching the internet trying to find American made "Urban" Cut T-shirts. My daughter and I want to start printing up our idea! I just found out at my family reunion that I have a cousin who is a graphic artist!

I can't draw to save my life but I have the idea in my head, Now I just need to find a wholesale source!

Best Regards,
Michelle

Re: Howdy! Looking for American Made!

you might try a printer and ask if he carries the american apparel line. these are made in the USA.

Or Alternative Apparel (although certain of their lines are made overseas)

Re: Howdy! Looking for American Made!

I think the original poster was looking for "urban cut" (which I assume to be like "hip hop" styled). AmericanApparel and AlternativeApparel are smaller sized.

I think proclub and royalapparel.net are both based in the USA and have urban cut tees.

Some one posted recently that may have that Urban or Hip-Hop style, I know they are made in the USA. Wasn't the post from their CEO?http://www.inyourfaceapparel.com

Tricky territory....urban also means AA in the Urban Outfitters sense. We need more words and less overlap

The hip-hop crowd just tried to steal our word is all... let's steal it back!

(in all seriousness, to me Urban equates to yuppie and/or urbane, so I do find it annoying and occasionally confusing the many uses it gets put to now)

Thanks for the information! I did see "Greg" Comin out Swinging, found a source that can sew shirts for $1.00 plus cost of material. Now it's a matter of finding the right material for a HIP HOP type shirt.

How do I PM someone? He said for more information on his source to PM him? Sorry, I'm new here LOL!!

PM is short for Private Message. If you click on someone's name there'll be a link that says something like "Send member a private message".

Did you check out the suppliers already listed? There may be ready made hip hop style blanks already available so you don't have to go through the custom garment process.
