Best Place to Purchase T-Shirts?

I don't screen print any more, everything is digitally printed with my Roland, and have not printed any T-shirts for several years. Have a customer with a family reunion coming up and wanted to order some T-shirts.

I have read a few posts about digitally printing on Heat Transfer material, contour cutting and heat pressing onto T-shirts.

I do have a heat press, so all I need is a good source for wholesale T-shirts and some advice on what is the BEST heat transfer material to use with a Roland SP540v and Eco-sol inks.

Thanks for any and all feedback...

Check out SanMar for wholesale garments, that's who we use.

The best place to get tees would probably be wherever you used to order them when you were screenprinting. You'd already have an account setup with case pricing.

Theres so many different vinyls made for digital heat transfer these days.......sometimes it just comes down to personal preference.
For overall ease of use, wash ability, color retention and weed ability, my favorite is Stahls Express print.

Keep in mind, though, digital printed transfers are work intensive and the media isn't cheap. If you're only making a dozen or so, that's fine.
But if this is a BIG reunion and you need more than a few dozen shirts, plastisol transfers might be a better, easier, cheaper choice.

Haven't purchased shirts in over 10 years, don't even remember the source.

Where do you get plastisol transfers, who do you use?

This combination works well for us... Try One Stop for your shirts. (www.onestopinc.com) For your digital vinyl try Stahls (www.stahls.com). We've had good luck using Stahls item # MC200XPT001 - CAD-COLOR Express Print.

Stahl's has plastisol transfers.

For shirts we use S and S and San Mar.

I get them from S&S Activewear, and ship them to Dennis @ D&T and have him print them.

Any of the big boys will be good for you.
