Hi, I have been trying to find somewhere that sells good quality 100% polyester t shirts.
Is there any where that sells ring spun polyester? i want more of a casual looking shirt, rather than sports shirt look and feel.

I used the search button on this forum but come up with very little results..

I've only ever been able to really find the sports style, which I get from BMS. I think I saw ethicstar.com do some for a little while, not sure if they still do - worth a look though!

I use Vapor T-Shirts. The grey are my top sellers.

Vapor Basic white and ash grey t-shirts
Vapor t-shirts for sublimation printing are made from a spun microfibre fabric that wicks moisture away from the body - for the sublimation printer the biggest selling point is that this spun microfibre fabric feels like cotton whilst keeping you cool! Available in white (adult small to 5XL) and ash grey (adult sizes XS to 3XL). Pressing instructions are at the bottom of the page.

BTC Activewear (so presumably others) do a range of polyester garments including those from FOTL, GILDAN, SPIRO and XPRES

Bear in mind that they are polyester so will never feel like a cotton garment and the garment does not have to be 100% polyester for sub work, some of the stuff I saw on the Saw Grass stand at FESPA was stunning.

Hello Chris35,

I would recommend Ralawise, Pencarrie, BTC or Prestige.

However Xpres sell a high quality polyester sublimation garment, it is ultra white in colour and has a substantial jersey knit giving it superior quality with a light feel when wearing the garment.
There are a range of garment for purchase, take a look:

If you need any further information please let me know.

Hi Socialgiraffe, do you by any chance know any of the codes for the FOTL or Gildan polyester, I had a look but most seem to be mostly cotton, I ended up trying the AWD cool sub t-shirt, personally wasn't a fan but got some Xpres ones coming tomorrow. Would be ideal if I could get them from Rala, Pen, BTC etc as I use these almost every day and would save a little on carriage. :)
Thanks Chunk

Thanks Socialgiraffe, I can see them now (good price for Gildan), only one I could find before was the AWD version but it was practically see through, which on white is no use for females (or guys like me, lol).
Cheers.
