NO SOLICITATION CURRENTLY EXISTS. Cost will be a final determining factor. Companies interested in having their undershirt/fabric samples considered for possible f uture use must submit 3 samples of each undershirt or 1 yard of fabric, along with an information paper (specification sheet) describing the fabric in detail to include such things as fabric name, place of manufacture, location of source of fibers, blend o f material, current uses for fabric, pricing information (cost per yard) and any other information that the company feels appropriate.
