Gildan
Youth Heavy Cotton™ T-Shirt
As low as $3.19/each
At PrintHabit you can turn the classic Gildan 5000B Youth Heavy‑Cotton tee into a personalized statement piece for your team, club, or event. Gildan has been a go‑to name in affordable, durable apparel for decades, and the 5000B model is a favorite because its soft, 5‑6 oz jersey feels comfortable while standing up to heavy‑duty screen printing. Choose from 54 vibrant colors and sizes XS‑XL, then let us bring your artwork to life with screen printing, direct‑to‑film (DTF) or dye‑sublimation. All options use eco‑friendly inks and low‑impact dyes, and the shirts feature a tear‑away label for added comfort. Because we understand small runs, we offer low minimums—screen printed shirts start at just 24 pieces, while DTF and sublimation runs can be even smaller. Whether you need a handful of bulk custom t‑shirts for a fundraiser or a larger order for a corporate giveaway, our fast turnaround and nationwide shipping keep your project on schedule. Ready to design your custom Gildan 5000B? Let PrintHabit handle the printing so you can focus on the event.
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.
