American Apparel
Women's Garment-Dyed Heavyweight Cropped Tee
Looking for a stylish, heavyweight tee that showcases your brand without sacrificing comfort? The women’s American Apparel 1302GD cropped tee is a 100% cotton, garment‑dyed shirt that feels lived‑in from day one. Weighing 6‑6.9 oz, the fabric is thick enough for durability yet soft enough for all‑day wear. Its boxy, cropped silhouette with rolled‑forward shoulders and taped neck offers a modern fit that flatters and moves with you. Choose from seven on‑trend colors and sizes S through 2XL, then personalize it with either DTF or screen printing. DTF lets you start with a single shirt—perfect for low minimums—while screen printing is ideal for larger runs, with a 24‑piece minimum. All options are applied using eco‑friendly inks and sustainable manufacturing practices, reflecting American Apparel’s commitment to social responsibility. Whether you’re ordering a handful for a local pop‑up or bulk shirts for a nationwide campaign, this tee delivers a premium look and feel that your customers will love.
Our guarantee: we stand behind our print quality — a printing or adhesion defect, we’ll remake it or refund you. We print exactly what you approve, so please check spelling and artwork on your proof before you sign off.
