Wanted: Service T Shirt Makers?

Aiden Roberts · Aug 10, 2014

Hey all

Just about to launch a logo competition on 99 designs and was wondering if there are any t-shirt makers on here or recommendations?

I'm thinking t-shirts with emblem (logo) and possible a slogan but undecided.

Has anyone had t-shirts made for their business, if so by whom?

Only need a small quantity initially for promotion purposes.

*note to self: do 99 designs do t-shirts? I have investigated t-shirt makers before but can't remember who they are now

Thanks
Rob

I had shirts done for one of my sites and he did small orders. The main cost is the screen (if you want screenprinted as opposed to transfer.). I think that was about £30+ for a single screen. Then had Gildan shirts printed as I found them better quality than fruit of the loom etc...
I'll try and dig out his details as not used him for a while.

I had a couple of shirts done by vistaprint for our chocolate making business, these seem OK so far and price was good for just a couple.

My mate Paul runs http://www.october.co.uk - based in Nottingham and can help you throughout the whole process if needed.

He's been doing it for 20 years now and prints for lots of small fashion houses - he won't be the cheapest out there, but he really knows his stuff.

Great stuff thank you, looks like he really knows what he's doing.

Ive also used vistaprint and they were good quality and have lasted.

I had a small number of shirts embroidered by Talking T's http://www.talkingts.co.uk/ (they were local so I just walked in and talked to them, but they seem to be open to online orders too).

I can't remember what I paid as it was 6 years ago, but it wasn't "crazy money" and I was happy with the result. If anyone saw me at Internet World (or indeed watched my video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxopSv89Nt0 ) I'm talking about the grey Memorable Domains polo shirts...
