Where's the best place to get sweaters/hoodies from for doing vinyls/flock?

Looking for good quality that doesn't shrink in the wash.

Thanks
:D

I'm about to list a load of new clothing I have left over if it's of any interest. I think its mainly sports zipped jackets, maybe some hoodies as well. All Continental so the best quality.

Unfortunatley it's only if you get in to the relams of 20+ that they start being competitive and the colour choice very limited. It's handy though if you use them for vinyl supplies and keeps the carriage cost down compared to ordering elsewhere.

The cheapest I found so far are BTC activewear & Elms and Elms.

BTC are also handy if you use Xpres vinyl becuase they sell that too.

not the bigest chose on the planet but do me for that what I do ;)
I got my vinyl from them too! fantasic and very good price. mos5 I like about them is they not force you to use courier services if your parcel is small enough...


also if I need more colors or any thing else I use them: http://www.polo-shirts.co.uk/

I understand what you're saying but I prefer trades suppliers to supply to the trade and therefore keep prices out of sight from joe public :D

It's great that we can kave sites like BTC. Elms etc available in the shop when a customer enquires about something we don't stock. It means we can get the site up on screen without showing them the prices.

To give you an idea of prices the Gildan Hoodie at both of these is £5.75 + vat.

Bear in mind though that all Glidan & FOTL prices are going up on 1st October by about 5%. I think BTC increase on Gildan is 4% from memory.

I get most of my garments from Absolute Apparel (New price list shows Gildan Heavy Blend Hoodie at £6.00 + VAT for colours, this takes into account the recent hike in prices by the way) used them for a couple of years now.

Hi Sharon

Thanks for that link :D

£6 + VAT brings them in at £7.05 for the Gildan Heavyweight, and Elms and Elms do them for £6.46 VAT inclusive :D

It's a total minefield out there for suppliers and prices :shock:

What do you mean by activating your account ? Have you applied for a credit account or are you just waiting for a website login ?

Kaz

Yes but their prices increase today 18.10 to a similar price as Absolute, did you get their email noting this? If not I can forward you a copy.
