Getting team gear??

[kman58]

Hey guys,
Comp season is heating up and obviously before hitting comps/shows teams want to get spirit wear like hoodies/jackets/sweats/etc. Which websites/vendors have you guys had good experience ordering custom team stuff from (jackets in particular)? Preferably cheaper companies (nothing like Custom Ink). Please post thank you!

Try VistaPrint they have lots of choices and good quality.

We get our team apparel (hoodies, jackets, t-shirts, etc) from two of the screenprinting shops in our town. We've established a good relationship with them over the years and receive a discount on most purchases. And because we buy from local vendors, changes to our orders (e.g. adding shirts) are more easily accommodated. It's also nice to be able to walk into the shop and see exactly what color and material you're getting.

You could always check out online suppliers and companies like Rootsgear or Inkspill. They've made a bunch of t-shirts for comps and I think some teams as well. They also have a very good eye for the bhangra scene and can design accordingly.

We usually use BlueCotton, as if you call them it's really easy to get a 15% team discount (when you sign up for their emails or whatever). Also, they're very good with using images that are low-resolution and making them look good somehow. Prices are some of the cheapest we could find online for the quality, although they are still kinda expensive unless you're ordering a lot. For T-shirts (and if we're short on time), we usually go to a local screenprinting shop. It's easy to just walk-in and figure it what you'll be getting.
