Starting a New Line/Brand Feedback Thread

When it comes to blanks, what does anyone in here suggest for superior in quality? I've heard good things about Gildan, but there are a few threads on tshirtforums, that are saying many people are getting irregular tees from them depending on their supplier. Also when it comes to plastic bagging does anyone have a site to recommend? I remember there being a post about it but can't seem to find it.

Do most people write out their own lettering, or design it on photoshop/illustrator?

Design was made by us. Well aware that it is a parody on the cartoon. Find it funny that people are commenting more about an oldschool obscure childrens anime and not on the big corporate giant for the mickey design

Gildan is shit in my opinion. They are some of the cheapest tees and shrink like crazy in the wash. Although I have no personal experience with them, I love Alstyle and American Apparel and have a couple of tees that other brands have used such as Only for AA and Huf for AAA.
As far as plastic bags, I think Uline is really good.

What is the industry standard for tank tops? Alstyle #1307? If so, how is the fit/material compared to their shirts(I've read that they run a little large)? **Any brand examples would help**

I've tried AA tanktops and don't like the fit at all

Hey guys,
I started we started a small line a little over a year ago and just got into Kazbah (stuff isnt up yet, just got photoshoot images back from them). Thought we could share our line and get some feedback.

Got some cool stuff, but all we ask is no more Mickey Mouse shit. It's deader than dead now.

Damn I have a design that I'm working on that looks almost the same as thing but with a pig face.
Mustache top hat and all...

And I ain't going to hate cause I have a Mickey Hands T too but this looks like this one

designs:

It's like a streetwear staple to fuck with copyrighted shit. just look at all the mickey mouse designs...

Thats Doremon, a copyrighted character... are you even allowed to print it and sell that?

Technically no. But they are such a small brand and printed maybe 25 tees. Im sure the company won't care nor notice. But they should be careful about travelling into those kind of waters, especially as you grow

So, on a lighter note.. I'm making my way to college next year and was just wondering if any of y'all run your brands from a dorm room as well? And right now I got all my designs picked for this summer, they're right below here, there will be an additional design and a photo tee if everything goes according to plan! If anyone wants to support me my shop is http://stayalert.bigcartel.com/ I still got some stock left over from Spring so check it out! I want to take my brand towards the direction of the flashy 90s skate and surf clothes that I grew up wearing because of my brother's hand-me-downs. Please give me some criticism on what you don't like and let me know what you do like! (I may have already posted these designs in here but this is more of an official post, not trying to spam)
P.S I'm currently in the process of smoothing out these lines and polishing the designs until they're perfect, but these will be the designs

Really fuck with this image. Can't wait to see the actual clothing man. It's good to see unique shit that isn't trying to be the established brands in demand now.

Well I know for a fact Only uses Gildan in many of their products, Also for AAA, the hundreds uses them as well. And thanks, I checked out Uline seems leggit.

I think I found the manufacturer for Diamond and Supreme hats, someone message me to confirm it. It looks suspect

Finally put a release date for my Treasure Pack. It will be dropping this Friday at 12:00am. (05/25/12)







I didn't want to flood the thread with to many pics but you can see the rest at http://bluudreams.com/ #DiveIn

These are dope af! do you print yourself, locally, or online? We are really trying to figure out how to get this brand off the ground, any suggestions?

I like you custom label design a lot. The treasure pack t-shirts are nice as well.
