So, all in a day of learning. Yes, I spent my Sunday at Printwear and Promotion doing the touchy-feely bit and getting the product into my hands to help us specify great solutions for our customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A different show from previous years, less might be one word, but what was there was certainly worth the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Probably to our biggest wholesale channel first, considering we\u2019ve not actually met our account rep in person, it was great to know that voice alone gets you recognised. Gildan has a new\u00a0Softstyle Midweight Fleece Adult Hoodie<\/a>, which yes made the mark, with 15 colours in the range, it\u2019s not quite to the level of the other big Hoodie manufacturer, but we can say, there will be stock of this, as this wholesaler and brand a renowned for keeping good stock levels. So, a sure winner there!\u00a0\u00a0If you\u2019re sporty, the advent of a well-known name of Craft coming into the portfolio of this supplier is a real winner too. And, yes I will be product testing certain items myself (that says a lot!) However this isn\u2019t in the catalogue yet \u2013 give it a few weeks and we\u2019ll be chomping at the bit for it.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

For our workwear clients, here\u2019s the winner through this wholesale channel \u2013 Jobman workwear, yes the\u00a0Craftsman Trousers<\/a>, are certainly a product to take a look at. We also liked the\u00a0Softshell Jacket<\/a>\u00a0as well \u2013 again specification at the price point is a great option \u2013 more than the Regatta Ablaze, but in a different league. If you are a brand snob and workwear has to be absolutely top-notch, the option around Helly Hansen is there, and the\u00a0Manchester T-Shirt<\/a>\u00a0again really packs a punch.<\/p>\n\n\n

As big fans of Hoodies, we had to stop by AWDis \u2013 purely the range is awesome, with more colours<\/a> than you can shake a magic wand at. Whilst we have some in our Halifax Showroom, we don\u2019t have the full range, Great for apparel which needs to bring brand colours really to home. We also took a serious look at AWDis Just Cool and knowing some of our personal trainer clients and fitness industry clients, there is some interesting development in products which will allow your branding into more places, including crop tops and excellent leggings. The other Hoodie which we are fans of is Anthem<\/a> \u2013 this has become our staple top-of-range go too. Yes, we came away with a sample of the mid-range<\/a> Anthem Hoodie and did spend a bit of time looking at the zipped hoodies as well.<\/p>\n\n\n

Other highlights saw us exploring options around merchandise to bolt on to apparel – watch this space. We also had substantial conversations with a significant outdoor clothing brand about potential packages we might be able to offer. Plus exploring further product offerings which might help us to enhance our offering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So our advice \u2013 if you\u2019re looking for apparel and workwear, ask, we\u2019ve seen a lot, and gotten to know a lot of products. We have sample stock available for you to see for yourselves in our Halifax showroom. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
