We launched our YouTube channel a few months ago in hopes of becoming a primary resource of information about the wholesale apparel industry and all things T-shirts. We release weekly videos on that channel (so go subscribe!) as well as blog posts to help educate and inspire you. But we’re not the only reliable resource out there, and in this era of information overload, we know it can be overwhelming trying to find quality sources. That’s why we put together a list of some of our favorite T-shirt and apparel industry resources. Keep reading to learn more!
