Looking to buy raglan shirts for your craft business? Maybe you’d like to add rhinestones, heat transfer vinyl (HTV), or a transfer onto a raglan shirt.
Today, I’m sharing the best places to buy wholesale raglan shirts.
Table of Contents
What are Raglan Shirts?
Raglan shirts are a type of specialty t-shirt. Raglan shirts became popular in the 1960s. The seam of a raglan shirt runs diagonally from the neck, allowing full movement of the shoulder and arm. The freedom of movement made them popular with baseball players.
Raglan shirts can be short sleeve, 3/4 sleeve, and long sleeve.
Why are Raglan Shirts Popular?
Raglan shirts are popular not only because they are cute, but the seam placement makes for a wider arm. This provides a slimming effect for arms – and makes them look longer.
Personally, I feel that raglan shirts are also incredibly comfortable.

I am looking for Raglan tees that have cute designs on the sleeves (stars, cheetah print, etc.)! Do you have any idea where I can find those at?

Hello! They are mostly all made in China, imported and sold on blanks sites. You can head to AliExpress and search raglan to find them. Hope that helps!

I just started an Etsy shop and have been looking into branching into raglan tees. Does my Etsy shop count for being able to buy wholesale? I'm very new to this so I'm not sure what everything means when I've looked at their pages to register.

Hi Brittney! Your Etsy shop won't qualify you to buy wholesale. Instead, you'd have to register with your state/county/city as a small business. It varies greatly from state to state.

Although I absolutely love everything Bella we have been using a lot Anvil tri-blend Ragland tees, and they feel amazing. We order then from Straton.
