Hi,I am wanting to open a small retail clothing store and needed some help.I was wanting to know if anyone on here knows or is a name brand clothing or apparel wholesaler.I am mainly looking for casual and sport type clothing and shoes.The brands I would be most intrested in are polo,lacoste,nike,adidias,jordan,and other type of basketball,sport,or casual style cloths or shoes.I have searched all over this forum and have not had much luck finding any information.Any info would be appreciated.

I had retail store a few years ago. Now Iam starting my own clothing line. I will tell you this nike will not open a acct for new store thats not major dept store. You will need to have a good location you will need to contact the manufactors of the brand you want. You will need to have some other top brands in youre store to get accts with other brands. You will have to send the manufactors pictures of youre store for them to approve youre store to carry their brand it will not be easy but it could be done and some manufactors will not sell you their brand at all. I had in my store a lot of top brands but it took some time building a name for my store. And do not sell anything fake in youre store it will ruin your name. good luck
