if you have a look on google for t-shirt printing, you will find that there are companies that offer u to send your logo to them and they will print them on their own-brand t-shirts and if you buy in bulk they will do you a cheap deal per t-shirt if you hunt about, but there are loads out there, so have look before you buy!

na ive got the stuff to print it on the tshirts and ive made one on a tesco value tshirts but i doubt id be allowed to sell that on with my brand on it!!! the tesco tshirts arnt bad actually!! just the same quality of my billabong one im wearing now!!! the one ive printed on is £1.75 plus 10% off cos my gf works there so i got it for like £1.55 or something, bargain!! i found a website to buy blanks of but im not clear if you can put your own name on them, plus you have to buy in bulk!!

yeah i think you should be able to print on them if you can only buy them in bulk. Send them an e-mail. I'm sure its fine unless you're advertising their clothes as something else....I do admit mate, it is a tricky one...
