Firstly,,, i aint got nothing to sell...yet :) lol
Ok maybe this isnt the right section but i guess it does apply here more than anywhere else.
A new client that Im in with has a clothing factory out in Pakistan. Now from what I can see around the www there aint an awful lot of quality/good looking/stylish clothing for the sub-dye market. I can see that only white or ash/grey work with sub-dye but that doesnt mean the clothing has to be boring. with cotton shirts theres a whole host of various styles of Tees, hoodies etc like ringer necks, coloured sleeves and so on.
Ive asked him if hes interested in taking a punt with me and producing a 1 off order of say 1000 tee's in various styles - with a poly/cotton blend (i forgot to say that he also weaves the fabric as well so I can choose the percentage). He can also do lycra blends for sports clothing, in fact he's a sportswear manufacturer but i'll keep quiet who he is lol ;). I will ask though, whats the best blend? is it 80/20, 63/37...what? I dont know coz ive not done a sub-dye shirt yet. You guys do these, so whats the best blend? If im taking a gamble on 1000 shirts i dont want the wrong blend.
They'll be specifically for the Sub market - basically you lot!
Is anyone interested in this idea? e.g. ringer t-shirts, sub-hoodies, sportswear etc. Im not seeing a lot of it around and what is about isnt exactly setting the catwalks ablaze lol.
Ok so christmas is over as far as orders are concerned, this is a new year thing now, but he can turnover pretty quickly.
In all fairness and honesty, If i did get the first order in of say 1000, i'd be looking to offload them pretty sharpish, so theyll be cheap cheap cheap. The reason is because i'd want instant feedback on them and if all is well then I'll get busy on the next order...and so it goes on.
Please feel free to add to this strange topic. Im not selling or trading (yet), just looking to see if its worth it and if you guys think that the market needs some more stylish blanks to sell.
Cheers
Dave.
