Or your area of the country is much different than mine. Demographics and location influenced what the shirt was. I've been in the screen printing business for 7 years.
Checked out your site. The site is weak and your offerings are as well. Not trying to be ugly or bash you here it's just that I don't see you selling 500 of those a month.
If in fact you are then I'm the stupid one.![]()
I have sold some tees in years past that were geared to some event or social rise. Back when Wendy's had the "Where's the Beef" campaign going I made of bunch of tees with "Where's the Beach". I would sell 100+ a day on the summer weekends in Panama City Beach, FL. at 20 bucks a pop (mid 1970's).
This paid for my beach side room and all my expenses plus. I would buy around 100lbs of shrimp and sell it all on Monday back home. Made more in three days than I did at work in a month.
So yes money can be made in this niche. However a site with 2 offerings and no stock won't last long.....
The sizing Ed hardy uses is called Custom Fit or Muscle Fit, we have a job worker who used to produce for buying house of Ed Hardy, Do you want the printing to be felt on the fabric or you want the printing to be smooth as it is in case of Ed Hardy ?
Thank you!

I'd like the printing to be smooth.. and if its felt I'd like to to be thin like on OBEY, or DC Shoes shirts.. Not so thick like the samples from China/Pakistan have been.
What kind of inks do you use?
Actually what gives yo ua thick feeling is plastisol inks, they will give you a embossed like feeling and since its plastic based it will give you a kind of sticky feeling as well.
I did some printing for a guy who wanted to make some other brand shirts (it was a replica so i wont mention the brand here) but i can send you the samples for you to check the printing
Thank you!

The shirts target a young demographic, I'm pretty young myself. I put the order up for pre orders and have gotten 104 orders already for it.
Lets talk and see if we can work something out.
