    Best place to order shirts?

    I have ordered shirts with my logo printed on it in the past from both Vista Print and SpreadShirt and I have been disappointed with the quality. Where the logo is printed on the ink isn't opaque , so you can see through to the shirt, and immediately starts fading and cracking after the first wash.

    I wouldn't need a large quantity of shirts, so I don't mind paying for better quality shirts for my business.

    Google then read reviews is the best thing I can tell you. Also try local places.

    I think Vistaprint uses silk screen transfers. What you really want is a place that works with vinyl transfers! It's pretty easy for them to do a single color (like white) for a logo, and it shouldn't be overly expensive. A buddy of mine has a machine for working with Vinyl, its almost like a CNC machine type deal that cuts the vinyl for you using an image you upload onto a computer. After that, it gets heat pressed onto the shirt. Much better quality than silk screen transfers.

    Best place to order shirts?

    Are the vinyl screen prints the really thick and opaque ones? That's really what I'm looking for.

    Get in touch with Bob & Sheri Ashley at ECO & find out their current pricing structure for shirts. When I ordered from them they had a *ton* of options available for custom shirts. Great quality, great people, and you're keeping your $$ in the herp community.
