Hey guys,

im starting a clothing company for skiing (tall tees, hoodies etc). I was going to use the name Trifecta, but it was already taken by another clothing company. So why am i making a company? Because it's hard to find quality tall t's that are meant for skiing, that look badass, and are tall enough. I am here to bring my dream of tall t-shirts to you guys as i am starting some pretty cool designs. I need a name for the company tho, my previous one was already taken and so help me NS! What do you think a steezy name for a ski clothing company would be?

cheers,

-Tom

for creating my tee's i've already started doing stencils, what would the best method be? Using paint and painting it on or getting fabric spray paint?

Getting a professional screen printer. Dont even attempt to sell home made T's.

not necessarily
i print my own shit for my company, and it works out fine
if you know what you're doing, then its pretty much the same process that any professional company uses, just dumbed down a bit
and it lets you use more creativity and change things how you want them
for example, i print on home made tie dye t's, and other painted t shirts, which you can't get done from most companies
and i use AA for my stock, because the cotton's awesome, the price is awesome, and the shirts fit awesome, instead of some crappy shirt most online printers offer
yedig?

to the op, go to any art supply store and ask about their screen printing stuff
you need a 110 mesh screen, something to hold it in place, ink, squeegies and emulsion and some other stuff thats kinda needed but not really

you just gotta be careful

Because only hippies wear home made T-shirts, no one in their right mind would buy one because no only is it going to wash out it is going to ruin everything else in the washer.

If you were making tie die's with pot leafs on them it would be different, but your trying to make baller shirts in your kitchen. That doesn't match! If your set on doing this take it in a reggae direction not a bold neon direction. You really need to get in touch with reality, its going to be obvious you made these on your own. Trust me this is what my family does, we print and embroider shirts. I know what Im talking about. They are going to be kitchen quality not retail quality.

made in my basement
ive had this particular sweater for 5 months, washed it probably 20 times
ive had other sweaters including one sick quicksilver one and one lrg one both fall apart on me in less time than this

nothings fallen off, nothings ruined on it, and theres nothing shitty about it, its perfectly good quality stuff, and many people have bought them

not trying to belittle you, just saying that it IS possible to do stuff at home if you work hard enough at it
