    Breathable T-shirts with Andy Rui Tag

    Hi All,

    Been a while since I posted anything but thought you guys could probably enlighten me with your combined knowledge.

    So about 18 months ago I bought a mystery lot from eBay. Was only really interested in the peripherals but have ended up with 100+ Tee's

    They are breathable like sports shirts. White (obviously) for sublimation. Tag inside says Andy Rui

    Now I may be being thick here, but I cannot see anything in them about their % but am presuming they're a high polyester content

    So im guessing my question is does anyone know what settings these need to be pressed on? Or really anything about the sizing!

    Or suggestions of where I can offload them as I won't really use them!

    Is it possible the shirts were relabelled with the previous owners name?

    It's possible that it's just as Justin has mentioned, that they have been relabeled. If you have a heat press, you could perhaps give it a try to do a sublimation and then do a wash test, then it would be obvious if they are of good sublimation quality.

    Made a quick search. Some Aliexpress sellers had that particular brand but they mentioned that Andy Rui was specialized in organic cotton.

    Hi All,
    Thanks for the replies.

    So I've sublimated them before, as I needed a quick batch for an event I was running. So know they sublimate well.
    BUT it was hit and miss on the timings etc. Not sure how they washed up but know colour was almost spot on.

    What I'm worried about is that there is no care label in them so don't know what % mix they are or even if they are mixed

    Anyone got any press instructions I could have a play off? or any suggestions of where to shift these on?

    Most subi shirts I would expect to print around 50/60 secs at 200c, slightly less if possible. TBH I very rarely print subli shirts nowadays but this should be about right.
