No not the Roxy Music album, but it was snappiest title I could think of...
As mentioned in previous about me pages, I've bought a few albums, seen a few gigs and certainly purchased more than enough t-shirts. I'm not an expert, but in putting into place a merchandise idea, quality was the most important thing.
People work hard, and money is tighter than ever, so you want a good quality item that will last.
Fruit of the Loom, Gildan, Bella Canvas and Stanley/Stella have all passed through as samples, but the one brand I've always favoured are Continental Clothing's Earth Positive range. They wash up well, hold their shape, they tick the boxes for the eco and sustainable side of things, and most importantly, they're comfortable.
So, who to produce them? Printful, Fifth Column, Everpress? I’ve tried these and made enquiries with a few more, all are good Fifth Column I would always recommend. However, on the recommendation of Mark Powell, owner of Esoteric Recordings I tried TOTShirts, and they have been perfect in everything. UK based, and close to where I live, so even better.
I hope to add more to my shop (designs as well) but, for the time being, it's t-shirts. However, if it's more than tees that you require, a hoodie, a beanie, maybe a mug or a mousemat, then please contact me on cultimageshop@gmail.com and we can discuss your needs.
I am also offering a one time discount to initial orders, if you require a sample or 2, so again please contact me.
And finally, I am eager to test myself with designing or certainly working with a 3rd party, on other designs. so, if you like what you see, and have an idea, I would love to hear from you.
Cult Image has been 4 years in the making, let’s see if we can make it 5?
Thank you for reading.
