Southern Fried Cotton Review

Recently I began a part time job in a retail clothing department. Our store is located in Coastal Georgia, so many of the lines of clothing we carry are from Southern companies and have designs that are popular in our coastal communities.

One of these lines is the Southern Fried Cotton Company located in Clemson, South Carolina.  SoFriCo is a graphic design and screen printing company that has been in operation for 25 years.  It specializes in T-Shirts and hats.  


The company was begun by three young men, John, Chuck and Chris, who were all raised in the Upstate of South Carolina with  frequent trips to the coast, plenty of weekends on the lake, and lots of time spent on dirt roads and back woods with either a dog or a gun…or both. Their creative designs reflect this lifestyle and appeal to people old and young who appreciate and enjoy the Southern lifestyle.

The goal of the owners of Southern Fried Cotton is to create apparel that captures the Southern spirit…. from the rustic countryside to the vibrant coastline! They combine country with coastal, sand with dirt, prep with grit, and vintage with new. Some of their designs reflect the good ole days.  Other designs are timeless that all ages can appreciate.  And, they’re all Southern Fried!

Southern Fried Cotton uses the hound dog as their logo.  Not only is the Hound an iconic sporting dog in the deep south, it is also a great identifier of the Southern Fried lifestyle lived by the owners of SoFriCo.  





MGPALMER



Southern Fried Cotton is a 'Home Grown Apparel Co' inspired by Southern Style. It's the logo on their T-shirts.  Today, the founders of SFC live and work in Clemson, SC with their families.  As they began to raise daughters, Chris, John and Chuck realized they needed a softer side to their line of Southern apparel and, thus, MG Palmer was born.

This side of Southern Fried Cotton was created to inspire and encourage these daughters and all young ladies to be strong, courageous, and always sweet.  

These designs can be found on display in their retail stores in Clemson and in Greenville, South Carolina, and on their website at mgpalmerapparel.com






Hats and Accessories




Southern Fried Cotton Company also carries baseball style hats like the one shown in the intro photo, and accessories such as Koozies.



They also carry a line of Sweet Youth clothes for kids.

  3. Thanks for your sweet comments, Susan and Mouse. I love the name of this company and think it is very clever. The shirts are well made and very colorful with fun designs reflecting the coast (crabs, fish, seahorse, etc.) and other designs of hunting, fishing and hound dog scenes popular in our Southern states. Our store carries these designs that appeal to our Southern population.

  8. Watch the fiber content. I bought a shirt thinking by the name it was all cotton and it was only 37% cotton. The Rest was polyester and rayon. When I’m out in the sun, the shirt gets burning hot. I had to donate it as could not wear this short leave shirt in the summer. Just check the label before buying.
