Personally, I like the Rez Dawg clothing line. I had them make up some matching shirts for our drum with our name on them.

I just got the inside track that Native Threads is being considered for regional test marketing in Walmart stores.

I will keep you tuned for further information.

Tell them to read that contract very well.... Walmart is known for bullying wholesalers into the lowest prices they can get, and have even been known to bully some into selling below their own cost, causing them to go out of business.

BB,

My information is third-hand info. My contact is visiting with regional Walmart representatives on another national issue. She will be following up on an earlier conversation about Native Threads during this meeting.

Sometimes it's all a matter of getting your foot through the front door.

I wish them all the best. Their products wear very well.

As far as sweaters, I don't know anyone else that sells them (aside from Rez Dawgs). I think I remember that Without Rez sold sweatshirts on ebay but don't know if they have a seperate site.
