    I'm just curious as to why it is so difficult to find RL items besides the little polo shirts?
    Example: have searched high and low and NO one offers sweaters or ladies jackets.
    For all you RL wholesalers/brokers/etc. out there.....could you give some insight?
    many thanks, Rosa/va

    For most of us suppliers, it basically comes down to our connections and which factories we can approach.

    For example, I deal with the Hong Kong and Macau factories thanks to some family connections. These are strictly licensed to produce Polos shirts only for Ralph Lauren (along with a few OEM orders for other brands). A certain factory will not produce the entire range of Ralph Lauren clothing.

    Your best bet is too find overstocks and surplus for other Ralph Lauren items. Of course, these are going to be rare and most likely not an on going supply.

    It is also a simple issue of numbers. RL probably sells 40 shirts for each sweater. So it is a lot easier to connect with the supply lines of shirts than sweaters.

    LABUZAN...I do agree with that point..it's just disheartening that I can't find even ONE sweater broker! :(
    Hopefully ONE will come out of the woodwork here soon!
    thanks, Rosa/va
