Two sports shirts: Logo 7 and Garan?

I picked these up recently and was mainly wondering the era... I live around the Indianapolis area, so I see Logo 7 everywhere, but have no idea on the dating of the tags. I've also read different company histories and they all say something different, so I'm not sure anyone knows exactly what happened to the company.

Anyway, this Broncos shirt is 50/50 and really soft and thin:

I've never even heard of Garan. Both of these shirts have the team's old logos, but that doesn't mean they aren't retro. This Sox shirt is also 50/50 and pretty soft:

Just curious as to the eras.

That White Sox shirt is actually Garanimals, which makes sense since it's a Youth XL.

I've only seen both those brands on sports shirts. I don't know if Garan has anything to do with Garanimals (a crappy kids label- Walmart stuff), but I see that tag a LOT on 1987 MN Twins shirts. (they won the series that year, go Twins) Logo 7 50/50 I see on mid-late 80's shirts, all cotton around '91, and manufactured outside the US mid-late 90s (lots of Bulls stuff) The stuff's all pretty easy to date since they often have the year of whatever championship they won.

Garan by far is the most comfortable vintage brand I've ever found. Tough to find in larger sizes though. I have 1 shirt that fits like an xl but is a xxxl on the tag. i usually need vintage shirts to fit like 23 in the chest and at least 27 in length. Hard to find good ones.

If anyone can help I'd appreciate finding a good supply of vintage Garan shirts. Thanks.
