Everything you need to know about ordering blank t-shirts, but were afraid to ask.

There is some basic information about t-shirts you may need to know before you make a decision about what type of t-shirts you may want to buy. First off, pay for a few sample shirts if you are unsure. It doesn't take that long to order sample t-shirts and try them on, wash them, print them, throw them on the ground and when you are done use them as a rag. T-shirts are cheap and so the few dollars you will need to spend to test a couple of different brands will be worth it in the end.

Value: Either you want cheap t-shirts, thick durable tshirts, fashionably thin and tighter fitting t-shirts, organic t-shirts, soft t-shirts or womens cut t-shirts. You can't get everything in one t-shirt, so you need to make up your mind what type of style/fit you want to see if you can get it with the amount of money you want to spend. Most people are driven by their budget these days and the price range of t-shirts is from $1.50-8.50/each for basic tshirts from the above-mentioned styles. Each time you add a variable to the mix, like pockets, longsleeves etc..., then you add a dollar or two to the cost of those items. White t shirts are cheaper and black or color shirts usually cost an additional dollar each. Here is a general listing of the most common brands from cheapest to most expensive: Jerzee, Gildan, Tultex, Fruit of the Loom, Hanes, Alstyle, Anvil, American Apparel, Bella, Alternative Apparel. I didn't mentions all of the brands out there, but these are readily available and if you can't find what you want in one brand then you can switch to another and still get something similar.

Weight: In the old days people rubbed the cotton on a shirt and measured it's worth by how thick it felt. These days it's just the opposite; people like lightweight thin cotton that shows a little nipple action. I personally am in the middle, I like medium weight t-shirts that are a bit soft. The thinner the cotton also means the more it tends to shrink. However, cotton does bounce back if you don't mind tugging your shirt after you've sent it through a wash and restretching the cotton to fit again. The more liberal, meat-eaters, t shirts are cut like Hanes, Jerzee, Gildan and Fruit of the Loom brands. The thinner cotton shirts are American Apparel, Alternative Apparel and Tultex. In the middle you've got Alstyle and Anvil.

Availability: Typically the Hanes and Gildan are readily available. The Alstyle inventory fluctuates alot, especially in the summer. Anvil is up and down too. American Apparel has done a great job on keeping stock on items this year and I hope they keep it up as they seem to be replacing the Hanes Beefy T as the quintessential t-shirt. Tultex has been able to ship decent size orders and I don't do a lot with Fruit of the Loom or Jerzee. Bella is a Womens line of shirts that are also in the mix. I can get most orders to customers around the country in less than 5 days, but for orders that are mixed brands and or small orders I often have to consolidate the orders and it can take a full week to get them processed.

Quantity Wholesale pricing: The more t-shirts you buy the cheaper they get. There are some limits which are around the 500 quantity. Still, don't buy more shirts than you need to save money for any particular job. Shipping prices go down the more you buy, as well as, printing prices go down. From a business standpoint the risk factors go up when large orders are placed online so we require multiple levels of fraud protection before we ship large orders. No returns on large wholesale t-shirt orders since the shipping often is equal to more than the profit on any given wholesale tshirt order.

Export: Each country is different, but we are setting up an international section for orders of shirts made in the United States to be sold to a variety of countries outside the United States. Here is a list of the countries we currently do business with: Canada, England, France, Germany, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Denmark and we hope to increase that list. Large export orders for tshirts are only sent on a prepay via wire transfer basis. There are no returns on large wholesale t-shirt orders and all taxes, duties and shipping rates are paid by the importer.

Domestic Shipping cost: On an average you can guesstimate that a shirt weighs 0.5 lb or less. You can get an average of 72 shirts in a box, making the max fit t-shirt box weighing in a 30-35 lbs. Fed-Ex, Federal Express, is the most accomodating t-shirt shipping company for larger orders and I use a figure of ).35-0.50/ea shirt for the cost of shipping. These cost go down as you order more and Fed Ex Ground is the preferred affordable shipping method that takes from 1-5 days to get around the country. Allow 1-2 days for order processing and 2-4 days for shipping, which means if you throw in one weekend day you should estimate a week for the most common t-shirt orders. Mixing several different brands into one order often slows it down as I need to pull items from different warehouses to complete the order before shipping. You can mix sizes and colors to make up the total quantity of an order, however, the more you go off the beaten path, like Mint Green in a 5XL, then the more likely there is going to be a shortage. Keeping it simple gets orders shipped quicker. We do try to max out the shipping cost at $75 for any one order, but because we offer really cheap prices on low quantities too, we can't offer free shipping or we would have to stop processing smaller orders completely.
