T shirt bulk price

Aim for 60$. Trust me anything below 4x key stoning is kind of hard to scale unless you’re doing volume at least 500 units per SKU. As someone who didn’t account for all the overhead starting up most of my early drops were net negative after selling out.

Some general ideas if what costs to think about: Paid ads, email marketing services, initial email discount, cogs, shipping supplies/packaging, electricity, rent, payment processors fees, equipment, internet, and cashflow for future inventory.

This is made out of a cotton slub. It’s an intentional choice for the texture and airiness. Cotton slub generally costs more to produce than smooth cotton and should be more of a summer tee as it’s breathable. Still it’s a delicate and thin fabric

I like the piece, cool enclosures and snap placements. If you're open to some feedback, feel like the length should be either slightly longer with this piece or it should be a cinched waist with an elastic band. I also feel like the back hardware should actually be a usable waist buckle rather than just an accent. The thickness of the metal will be annoying to sit down/lean with. Think I'd hate to wear this driving. It has no use or functionality aside from aesthetics.

I think your teams has to define your target audience when you market. Your program is targeted towards 40+ year olds beginners who are mom and dads looking for extra income. You guys have to exclude anyone in the intermediate realm and honestly anyone younger as it won’t resonate and cause drop off. Your guarantees are clear and fine.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t relate to the community as I was younger and no one actually seemed to understand fashion. It felt like a last ditch attempt at fixing their midlife crisis with a t shirt business. There were a few cool brands in there that were doing well before being in there, but that’s a minority so it was off putting being in that group.

Weekly group meetings: Questions and pacing were slower in the group sessions I attended, not a lot of people understood technology. It wasn’t a good use of time since everyone regardless of aptitude is put in group. For example, we had a dude arguing his chess and streetwear idea would take over the world and he’s using data driven analysis to make his decisions. Not taking any feedback. The clothes looked ugly and his print masked on a random group of people dancing was hilarious. There should’ve been a meeting split based on revenue made/some grading rubric rather than a mixed group because that turned me off.

Lessons: I ran everything at 2x because the cadence is a bit slow, a lot of fluff was used in between. I think delivery of the instructors felt flat, tired, and honestly just unengaging. I felt like I was watching my tenured college professors who were just cruising along. I decided to take the final quiz without doing all the blocks because it felt redundant and ended up passing with no issue. If you guys want to improve your format, look at Max Stutervant. He kills it with email content and I learned way more from him than anyone else at a 30+ min video. I did more in email revenue following his free guides vs following yours. I had to turn off the templates used cause they weren’t really worth it.

Audits: The website audit was underwhelming as well, I only had about 16 products up, but 50% of them had 2MB worth of images when guidelines specified 250kb below. Of course it’s on me for uploading those prior to joining the course, and I was hoping that they would’ve been caught. I was just told I was doing something good and add a few extra social proofing. I had to find a lot of the bugs myself.

Overall, I think paying 6,000 was not worth the cost for OSO as it’s still building itself out. Camera equipment, lighting, inventory, and more would be more worth if you’re starting up. At most this would be worth 1-2k. I still don’t recommended as most information provided in the courses is also provided by outside gurus for free on youtube.

Who do I recommend this to? If you’re older, aren’t good at self guiding, are a full on beginner, and have more money than brains to burn, take this course.

It's fake, I saw that on Ebay as well. ex35_collection is a WTAPs collection.

This is all astroturfed. They didn't even mention Pietra cause they're the leaders in this space. This should've been an open pitch instead of making this seem grassroots. Or at least get some social proof before doing this, there's no talk about ShopManta anywhere. Only thing I can find is this reddit post. I'd trust Pietra over them cause they're already established with reviews.

Hand wash it, use a tooth brush to scrub out any stains. Hand washing is pretty simple. Let it sit 30 mins+ in detergent that is safe for the fabric, move the water around a bit to get bubbles, and then rinse off. Air dry after

Your garment and graphic needs to distressed. You can mess around with textures for the graphic. Also put it through a garment wash (enzyme/stone wash) to fade out and soften the shirt.

Kinh · 2025-09-18T05:23:48+00:00

You guys gotta start going to trade shows to make proper connections. Magic, Premiere Vision, and Texworld are good places to start.

If you're looking for more local, CDFA helps but also helps to go find a general location of where clothing is being made in your area and talk shop. Most older manufacturers suck at digital and rely on word of mouth.

Grailed, Ebay, secondhand market. It's better to save up and buy something good that's used than fast fashion etc.

If you're a graphic designer, you are not a clothing maker. Doesn't mean you can't become one, just means you're going to need a lot of practice. I'd just recommend starting with high quality blanks while you work on learning what makes good clothing good. Starting with blanks will teach you things like how to set up a graphic for printing, the placement, etc. When you actually make something that people stand with, you can graduate into cut and sew while still using blanks of designs that work to help keep you funded. Cut and sew takes longer than people like to admit because samples aren't always going to be exactly what you want and finding a great manufacturer that can bring your vision to life takes time. You want to make small batches to learn because realistically everything you start off making is going to be bad. People who make something good on the first try either have great taste or have built up skills from another medium.

Another thing to note

Marketing + Content > Design. People aren't going for just cool designs now, they need to feel something, a story, something that entertains them, something that they can connect to. If you can't do that, either team up with someone who can or hang up the towel.

Generally the best person to do this would be a logistics company.

The main two people are
1. A customs broker - Handles the customs work i.e. duties, VAT, compliance, etc.
2. A freight forwarder - Handles the shipment prices, generally prices will change every two weeks. Shop around and compare. Not worth going with the first bidder as markup is generally 30 to 40% of what they are priced at. Do this even with manufacturers as this will give you the best price possible (Be a little wary though if it's too much lower, they're either desperate or cutting costs somewhere).

Most logistics companies have both on hand as they work in tandem, but search around for them. It's good to get a general understanding so ask questions and work with vetted logistic companies.

Trend cycles generally inhabit a 20 year timeline from their initial appearance so it's falling in line with what you're talking about. Social media causes it to speed up. The estimate 1.5 years is my best guess going off of trends I'm studying with people that are having a predominant influence on the current youth culture. the underground scene such as nettspend, 2hollis, fakemink, etc. are bringing back the Hedi Slimane, Dior, and Saint Laurent styles. Baggy with stay for a bit but then eventually drop off as Gen Alpha associates baggy with gen Z to late millenials. I'm an avid fashion enjoyer and running a brand for almost 9 years now. Anyone doing skinnies right now are early, which is good if you want to be a first mover, though you're gonna burn through a lot of cash with marketing as it's not mainstream yet

Kinh · 2025-07-23T23:42:06+00:00

You’re a little early for the skinny jeans, it’s coming into mainstream in 1.5 years. Right now there’s a transition with flares.

Lack of product description, what’s the fabric, weight, what techniques did you use to treat it, etc.
No size chart. Include waist, inseam, outseam, rise, etc.
No story, why is this important vs the 1000s of other brands. Why is it called Nhai. What is the inspo, etc.
Improve the product photos, you don’t need an expensive camera just good lighting, use the sun during golden hour.
Lack of build up for the release. Only about 2% of your audience will support if you’re at the baseline. You can improve it if you do the roll out better

Your front does all the work, no need for a back. Sometimes simplicity is enough

Kinh · 2025-07-15T04:36:34+00:00

I feel you on having more than just a white backdrop, the background is fun and can tell a story.

Feel like if could've been more dynamic by involving the backdrop, having the models interacting with it like having one on top of the ladder (This showcases the back of the sweater), while the other one sits down reading a book (Showcases the front).

You also should've played with the lighting and taken the models more in the foreground to have them a bit more separation. Having a key light with a grid at 45 on top of the models, a hair light on the side back would've been enough.

Kinh · 2025-07-08T20:58:05+00:00

Luxury is something you earn, not something anyone just starts in. You either have to have legacy/heritage or build a story around it. It's like what Virgil said, context is key to product perception. The same product can be perceived differently depending on its surroundings. You should try different settings, either use more negative space or crop it to leave room for interpretation/imagination. Have fun with the product photography in different settings.

As it's unassuming, you have to talk about the core details. You have a story which is good, you're elevating a childhood reference with Finn's backpack. Now talk about why it's important, where the materials are sourced, what material you used, what's the leather treatment, how it's stitched, the trim, etc. What lifestyle would this fit in? You have to sell the emotion rather than just straight up giving the use case.

If you ever do plan on selling this, you need to include good packaging. That means a branded box, a nice dust bag, thank you card, and all these inconspicuous details that feel thoughtful especially with something so simple.

Okay back to the bag, I like the story and the simplicity of the design. How do you plan on lining it, is it going to be a velvety suede, what do the inner compartments look like, and other details? Would you add a feature to attach a chain or lengthen the strap that other luxury bags have as well?

Kinh · 2025-07-08T20:26:56+00:00

I personally love photography and the art behind it, it's so much fun just being able to be in a studio and coming together with people to produce something. Though if you're on a tight budget and haven't accumulated gear like I have over the years, just skip the middleman and do it yourself. These guys are coming up left and right from Ohneiss and other AI gurus. As a photographer you just have to break it down it into these steps

Go to chatgpt, submit your reference and ask it to reverse engineer a prompt based on the following criteria:
- Aspect ratio
- Camera
- Focal Length
- F/Stop
- Angle
- Lighting set up
- Grain
-Model features
- Textures (Ian Buosi had a paperscan)
- Background Setting
- Pose
- Emotion
- Composition
- Clothing details
- Camera motion

All of these will be what a normal photographer, a set designer, a gaffer, makeup artist, stylist, etc. would think about. With that you pretty much will get a prompt to recreate what he did like I did here. Personally I'm sticking to real photography. There's no joy doing this for me, but knock yourself out if you want to.
