Core365 Apparel
Wholesale Core 365 Polos, Jackets, and Outerwear
Core 365 — formerly marketed under the Ash City umbrella — is a performance-focused wholesale brand built around moisture-wicking polos, lightweight jackets, fleece builds, soft shell outerwear, and technical vests. The catalog is designed to serve men, women, and youth across corporate uniform, team, school, and branded apparel applications, with a cohesive color range and a relaxed-but-professional aesthetic that works across a wide range of decoration contexts. Bulkthreads carries the Core 365 lineup at wholesale pricing with automatic volume discounts applied at checkout.
Performance Pique Polos
The Core 365 88181 Men's Origin Performance Piqué Polo and its 78181 Ladies' counterpart are the primary polo styles in the collection — 100% polyester moisture-wicking pique builds that hold their shape through repeated washing and decoration. Both are widely used for corporate uniform, hospitality, and team applications where a consistent, professional-looking polo is needed across a large staff. The 88181R Men's Radiant Performance Piqué Polo and 78181R Ladies' Radiant version add reflective piping — a practical option for safety-adjacent and outdoor staff applications where visibility matters alongside appearance. For long-sleeve coverage, the 88192 Men's Pinnacle Performance Long-Sleeve Piqué Polo and 78192 Ladies' version extend the performance pique build for cooler environments or indoor applications where a short-sleeve polo isn't appropriate.
Performance T-Shirts
The Core 365 CE111 Fusion ChromaSoft Performance T-Shirt brings the brand's performance fabric construction into a t-shirt — a moisture-wicking build suited to athletic, school, and event decoration runs where a performance tee rather than a polo is the appropriate style. It's a reliable screen printing blank for teams and groups who need a consistent, decoration-ready performance tee at a wholesale price point.
Lightweight Jackets and Tech Shells
The 88183 Men's Techno Lite Motivate Unlined Lightweight Jacket and 78183 Ladies' version are Core 365's entry-level outerwear — wind-resistant unlined shells suited to layering over polos and team apparel for outdoor events, sidelines, and light-duty staff applications. The CE708 Men's Techno Lite Three-Layer Knit Tech-Shell and CE708W Ladies' version step up to a three-layer bonded construction — waterproof, breathable, and suited to more demanding outdoor conditions than a basic unlined shell.
Fleece Jackets and Soft Shell
The 88190 Men's Journey Fleece Jacket and 78190 Ladies' Journey Fleece Jacket are full-zip fleece builds suited to team warm-up packages and staff layering — clean athletic styling that pairs naturally with Core 365's polo lineup for a coordinated look across multiple garment types. The 88184 Men's Cruise Two-Layer Fleece Bonded Soft Shell Jacket bonds a fleece lining to a soft shell exterior — wind and water resistant with an interior warmth layer, a practical step up from a basic fleece for colder outdoor environments.
3-in-1 Jackets and Vests
The 88205 Men's Region 3-in-1 Jacket with Fleece Liner and 78205 Ladies' version are the most versatile outerwear options in the collection — an outer shell and inner fleece liner that zip together or wear separately, covering a wide range of conditions from a single garment. The CE701 Men's Cruise Two-Layer Fleece Bonded Soft Shell Vest and CE703 Men's Techno Lite Unlined Vest cover the vest category — the CE701 in a bonded fleece soft shell build for warmth, the CE703 as a lightweight unlined shell for layering without bulk.
Performance Headwear
The CE001 Adult Pitch Performance Cap rounds out the Core 365 catalog with a moisture-wicking performance cap — useful for completing a team or staff uniform package from a single brand without sourcing headwear separately.
All Core 365 styles ship same day via UPS Ground and typically arrive in 1–3 business days.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Core 365 and how does it relate to Ash City?
Core 365 is the brand name used on the products; Ash City was the parent company name under which Core 365 and other brands (including North End) were marketed. The Ash City name has largely been phased out at the product level — the apparel is labeled Core 365, and that's the name buyers will encounter on hangtags and wholesale catalogs. On Bulkthreads, the collection URL reflects the older Ash City name but all products are Core 365.
How does Core 365 compare to Sport-Tek or Team 365 for team and corporate uniform applications?
All three brands target the performance uniform segment with moisture-wicking polyester constructions and meaningful overlap in use cases. Core 365 tends to skew slightly more toward corporate and professional applications — its polo and outerwear catalog has a cleaner, more business-adjacent aesthetic than Sport-Tek's more overtly athletic styling. Team 365 is a closer competitor for athletic team use. Core 365's cohesive color range across polos, jackets, and vests makes it a practical single-brand solution for organizations that want a coordinated look without mixing brand lines.
Are Core 365 polos good for embroidery?
Yes. The 100% polyester performance pique construction on the 88181 and 78181 provides a stable, consistent surface for left-chest logo embroidery. The pique weave holds needle penetration well and the polyester fabric doesn't distort easily under hoop tension. For heat transfer decoration on polyester, low-temperature transfers are recommended to avoid distorting the fabric — the same consideration applies to most 100% polyester performance polos regardless of brand.
What is the difference between the Core 365 Motivate jacket and the Techno Lite Tech-Shell?
The Motivate (88183/78183) is an unlined wind-resistant shell — lightweight and suited to mild conditions or layering over fleece. The Techno Lite Tech-Shell (CE708/CE708W) uses a three-layer bonded construction that is waterproof and breathable — a more substantial outerwear build for actual rain and wind exposure. The Motivate is the lower-cost option for event and staff layering; the Techno Lite is the better choice when weather protection is a genuine requirement.
Does Core 365 offer youth sizing?
Yes. Core 365 includes youth styles across several categories in their broader catalog — check individual product pages for sizing availability, as youth options vary by style. For organizations outfitting both adults and youth — schools, youth sports teams, and family-run events — the consistent Core 365 color range makes it practical to coordinate adult and youth garments across the same order.
Do Core 365 orders at Bulkthreads qualify for volume discounts?
Yes. Automatic volume discounts apply at checkout across all Core 365 styles — no codes required. All orders ship same day and typically arrive in 1–3 business days, with free returns on every order.
