Hey Hey, I know this will be a rough shot but worth the ask, these forums never seem to fail me with all the different people's knowledge on here ![]()
So i have been designing TShirts for quite a while now and looking to get them into production [eventually]
i would probably be looking to maby set up my own website and sell TShirts at first, but that's not what ive come here to say.
Looking for manufacturers is the problem, i will need a Company that can Print TShirts for me at a reasonable price, companys that do so for Primark or other big named companys.
I have contacted some UK Printing Companys so far but final costs Per Tshirt end up being over £12 to even £20 odds which is not what im looking for.
Primark sell good quality TShirts [well some of them] for £3 - 5 ish so they must be paying about £1.50 per tshirt or maby less. All im asking is if anyone can point me in the right direction, maby they know a friend of a friend or something, ahh who knows it was worth an ask.
Thanks either way.

Try Mysoti they give you a template to do your designs on and when ever some one buys that design the money goes straight to you.

Its funny you ask this as I have been given a project to do shirt designs which I have been working on lol. Anyway I cant help really with what you looking for but there are sites such as spreadshirt that allow you to upload your designs and they can then be sold on many different clothing items aswell, although it sounds like your looking for something larger in scale. If you haven't checked out some of those sites you should have a look as you may be able to incorporate it into you website and have you shirts sold with little cost effort. ![]()

Primark t-shirts are ok, not great.
I wear them when lifting weights, they tend to unravel etc, they fit good though i suppose and the pattern does last.
The problem is, printing machines cost lots, i looked into buying one and they costs hundreds of thousands of pounds, so they need to make their money back.
How about screen printing your own, its the cheapest option available, its quite easy, and you can fufil a couple of hundred orders a day, at which point it may be worth your while getting them done in bulk, but until you know you can sell them, and buy in bulk, its not worth your time getting someone else to make them.

If you are looking to sell T-shirts online have you considered using zazzle ( http://www.zazzle.com/ ) or even cafepress ( http://www.cafepress.co.uk/ ). You don't need stock, zazzle/cafepress create the t-shirts and you get a commission but you do have to do some of the marketting yourself.

Sometimes, when I am cold, I pick things up and wear them. Like old rags, bushes or discarded carpets. A rare treat like a discarded cardigan with only a few stains is a complete blessing.
So yeah, I guess I make my own clothes. Needs must

Just look out for copyright, selling T-Shirts with a huge Sackboy on them could get you banged behind bars. Youll need the characters owners permission first.
