I need a huge favour from someone in the UK. I want to order a bunch of stuff from the European Carhartt store, but i live in Canada and they dont ship here. I need a willing person (that wont rip me off please!) that can ship me the clothing after i buy it from a local store in your area.

if you buy in the uk store you're being ripped off anyway so it doesnt really matter.

You mean they don't have any Hunting and Fishing shops in Canada?

im trying to find these, wholesale to ship to NZ
but maybe not the carrhart ones, just that thick material
car-lux™ they call it

curious.. gorbie, I also own a brown carhartt t-shirt with the lettering on front I still use it after 7 years

the funny thing about this company is that the same sweatshirt i bought at a bait, rod and gun shop - you could buy at a skate board shop in london.

yeah.. about 8 y ago became a trend on the euroean skate culture (I guess).. Evan Hecox made a few flicks for them by the time.-illustrations for 1998 catalogue
while people in CA and US still see it as a "nature sports" brand..., so more ace$sible

And they dont make the hoodies in Women sizing in canada... So i am screwed

same with Dickies tho huh?, how u can get it at walmart over there, then see it for twice the price in a fashion store

I'd say China is your best bet blackspade. Find out who imports all the Sovenier shop type baseball caps etc. They will know someone who makes them in china, or give that person a sample and they will get them made

thanks toe-knee ur probably right
... ive had a really good look around the net, that previous like is the cheapest ive found
im starting to think Carrhart has a copyright on that (car-lux) material or sumthing?
but up North i have seen copys for sale for like $15 at markets
if I could get em for that I would be stoked

China doesnt care much for copyright. Seriously, go into one of those tourist shops and asked who supplies the gear. Guaranteed its a chinese guy. We're getting loads of flags and rugby tops done for the Lions tour in NZ next year, found the soarce that way
- blackspade0
so any old tourist shop u reackon?
its just hard to explain to people the exact hoodies im after
u would think these companys would have shit online tho
- toe-knee0
the ones that sell the tacky baseball caps for tourists. The only think about going the China route tho is you will need to order bulk, unless there being made already
the shops that sell this type of crap
