Sourcing funk

I'd love some encouraging thoughts :)

We are a sell everything business which started out in Oct/Nov 2023. I've been trying to get more into the clothing realm and have done a few sourcing recon missions (haha) to our Goodwill store which is 30min away as we live in a rural area.

During these trips, I've typically just stayed in the mens and womens pant sections but am having a hard time finding good STR brands. Everything is Lee, Hagar, Dockers, Gloria V, George, Levi's, Wranglers, etc. So I end up walking out empty handed which is not ideal considering the mileage cost spent each time I go.

It is very unlikely that I'll find any of those money making BOLO clothing brands that everyone talks about in the top 50 lists. Is there still money to be made in some of these other more mainstream brands if the COG is low enough? Maybe in specific sizes, colors, etc?

Thanks for any insight!!
