Helmut Lang, amazing fit.

[allplay]

I'm sure, but not affordable at all to buy in higher numbers... and helmut lang is no more.

Thanks though.

Anyone else?

Agnès B and APC have some nice ones, pretty expensive though...

www.agnesb.fr > good quality tees, nice fit, and long lasting (especially l/s)

www.apc.fr > softer and thinner, very nice fit, shrinkage issues

Both companies have serious problems with sizing...

AAA 3 for 10 dolla.

aaa shirts are aaa shirts.

[powerglov]

Al Style Apparel and Activewear = AAA

[giantreptile]

hugo boss, 2Xist, Dkny make affordable, fitted under T's. V-necks too for dress shirts!

i've looked into a few other companies that do tees similiar to american apparel....ringspun, slim-fitting shirts....got some samples from a couple of them, and it seemed the quality wasnt as good as AA....and they're not that much cheaper, and in some case more expensive....colors aren't as nice as AA either....

heres the websites of a few...

Does anyone have a wholesale account with article1? I'd like to try some of their t-shirts, but you need to be some kind of business to order from them.

whatsup. i was looking for a good blank t-shirt that is cheaper that american apparel but as good or better quality. guess what, the answer is: uniqlo. their t-shirts are the fuckin truth. they also make super-dope blank hoodies (and jeans, and shirts, etc.)

perfect for printing on or customizing. gonna get me a bunch this weekend and make some t-shirts. i will post pics.

GILDAN or AAA

siznam beat me to it, but check out alternative apparel for a good substitute to american apparel. this is what they say about their product:

Quote: A tremendous amount of care goes into each product we manufacture rendering unique hemlines, stitching details, and a perfect ''no-shrinkage'' fit. All of our products are garment washed yielding an extremely soft fabric, which is vintage in feel but modern in style. Fabrication is an extremely important element of the Alternative line. Lightweight fabricationsâ€â€fine gauge and sheer- are combined with body conscious, and modern silhouettes.

I especially like their "burnout" tees

Uni Glo got some really nice blank shirts... simple and nice

Banana Republic Stretch Tees are nice

there is a guy who sells american apparel at wholesale prices:

but uniqlo is still cheaper. at the soho store, they are running a deal on t-shirts--3 for $12.

i like uniqlo stitching and fabric quality better than american apparel. fit is pretty similar.
