Hiya
Anyone got a good source for these please?
Had a look on MDP and they only have pullover in kids, had a look at BMS clothing site and they don't have prices on.
Found this site, but don't know what brand the hoodies are
http://www.personalisedhoodiesuk.co.uk/ ... odies.html
Got the possibilty for quite a lot of hoodies, if the price is right
Thanks
Kaz

I've since found out that the zip hoodies at £8 odds are AWDis ones.
Though, having seen an adults one today, I'm not overly impressed with them

Not impressed in which way ?
We use mainly Gildan from BTC or Elms & Elms

They are short in the sleeve in adult versions, and they don't appear to wash well. The lady that was wearing it said the sleeves were short before she washed it.
It's this same lady that's looking for me to do more for her, minimum of 50, so I need them to be good quality etc
Will go take a look at gildan ones, thanks Dave

I use FotL from either absoluteapparel.co.uk or uklonline.co.uk and never had any complaints.

AWD were our best selling hoodie last year, been very pleased with the feedback on them too. Even bought a couple for myself - washed well, no shrinkage.
Just finishing an order now for another 28 for somebody that had about forty back in September to see what they thought - they think they're brilliant (varsity style)
Gildan next, then Fruit of the Loom from BTC

Just looking at the link you first posted I think they are Gildan, you can tell by the colours. Strangely the AWDIS ones they sell are cheaper, which is unusual.
Personlaised Hoodies is actually the consumer arm of Ethicstar ( i thought it rang a bell )

How do you get an account with absolute without it being a credit account? Same for Pencarrie?
Jools, where do you get your AWDis ones from?
Thanks

I found the ethicstar website after calling them yesterday to find out what brand they were, lol
I've also noticed that Prestige do the AWD kids zip hoody for less than FOTL etc. I've thrown out the new price list from them in error though, only going on last years prices. Will need to call them for an up to date price list, but I don't imagine they've gone up that much.
Unless someone has the new price list that can help me out with pricing?
