New garments and fabrics bring new challenges for printers – something that has been confronted head on by TheMagicTouch. 

Madeira UK Limited has launched the latest version of the Peggy Stitch Eraser (8A).

A new Varsity Jacket product from Promo QC, which is fully stocked in six colours, is being targeted at the ever growing hooded sweatshirt market.

The company says: “We think that to freshen up the market we had to offer an alternative item to the printwear industry to offer the end user something that has made a big impact in the fashion stores.

MASCOT has announced a line of T shirts with masculine prints and a humorous edge. Their 2011 T shirts are for wearers of workwear who want to stand out a little from the crowd – in a relaxed way. And they are for the person who is looking for something a little different from the normal one-coloured T shirts year after year. So these T shirts will also only be available in a limited number.

From January, Jerzees Schoolgear, will be adding new boy’s and girl’s blazers to its range which is available via five UK distributors. The popular Russell brand is also extending its knitwear range, supporting the trend towards a more formal school uniform.
