AS Colour 5040 Staple Stone Wash Tee — Blank Stone Washed T-Shirt with Worn Look for Screen Printing, DTG & Vintage-Inspired Decorated Apparel

The AS Colour Staple Stone Wash Tee 5040 is a 4.7 oz 32-singles 100% combed cotton blank built for decorators, vintage-inspired apparel brands, and wholesale buyers who need a clean, stone-washed tee with a worn look and a regular fit. The AS Colour 5040 Staple Stone Wash Tee blank wholesale features a crew neck, stone wash finish with a worn look, neck ribbing, side seaming, shoulder-to-shoulder tape, double needle hems, and a pre-shrunk finish. Available in 5 stone-wash colorways — Ash Stone, Black Stone, Blue Stone, Moss Stone, and Orchid Stone — and sizes S through 3XL, the 5040 is the go-to stone-wash blank for decorators and brands building vintage-inspired collections, festival and event programs, and premium private label apparel with an authentic worn aesthetic.

Screen printers, DTG shops, and embroidery decorators sourcing blank stone-washed tees for vintage-inspired and streetwear programs wholesale will find the AS Colour 5040's 32-singles combed cotton construction and stone-wash finish deliver a soft, broken-in hand feel and a slightly irregular surface texture that gives decorated pieces an authentic vintage character. The stone-wash process creates subtle color variation across each garment, reinforcing the authentic vintage aesthetic that drives sales in festival, streetwear, and lifestyle branded merchandise programs. The pre-shrunk construction means the garment arrives at its final dimensions, so decorated pieces maintain their sizing accuracy through the customer's first wash despite the stone-wash treatment. Compare with the AS Colour Heavy Faded Tee 5082 for programs where a heavier-weight garment-dyed blank with a faded finish is preferred.

The Stone Wash Difference — Why the 5040 Worn Look Drives Vintage Apparel Sales

The AS Colour 5040's stone-wash finish is what separates it from standard blank tees in the AS Colour lineup. The stone-wash process tumbles the garment with abrasive stones during finishing, creating a soft, broken-in hand feel and subtle color variation that mimics the look of a well-worn tee — without the years of washing required to achieve that aesthetic naturally. The result is a garment that feels and looks like a vintage favorite from the first wear, making the 5040 the preferred blank for vintage-inspired decorated apparel programs, festival merchandise, and streetwear collections where the worn aesthetic is a core part of the brand identity.

Decorators sourcing the AS Colour 5040 stone-wash blank tee wholesale for vintage-inspired branded merchandise, festival and event programs, and streetwear collections will find the 5 stone-wash colorways cover a curated palette of muted, fashion-forward tones that reinforce the vintage aesthetic. The Ash Stone and Black Stone colorways anchor high-volume programs with a neutral, versatile base, while Blue Stone, Moss Stone, and Orchid Stone deliver the fashion-forward color dimension that differentiates vintage-inspired collections from standard blank tee programs.

Decoration Strategy — Screen Printing, DTG & Embroidery on the 5040

The AS Colour 5040's 32-singles combed cotton construction and stone-wash finish create a unique decoration surface that rewards techniques that work with the vintage aesthetic rather than against it.

• Screen Printing: Discharge and water-based inks work best on stone-wash blanks, allowing ink to penetrate the fabric; plastisol inks can be used but may show more texture variation; vintage-inspired halftone and distressed print techniques complement the worn aesthetic
• DTG: Pre-treated combed cotton surface provides good ink absorption; stone-wash texture creates a slightly irregular print surface that reinforces the vintage aesthetic; ideal for vintage-inspired graphic tee programs
• Embroidery: Side seaming and neck ribbing provide stable base for chest and sleeve embroidery; stone-wash surface adds vintage character to embroidered patches and woven label applications
• Heat Transfer: Pre-shrunk cotton surface provides consistent adhesion; vintage-distressed heat transfer designs complement the stone-wash aesthetic

5 Stone-Wash Colorways — Curated Palette for Vintage & Fashion Programs

• Ash Stone: Muted warm grey — versatile neutral for vintage-inspired programs across all categories
• Black Stone: Faded black with stone-wash variation — the workhorse of the 5040 lineup for high-volume screen print and DTG programs
• Blue Stone: Washed indigo-inspired blue — ideal for denim-inspired and coastal lifestyle programs
• Moss Stone: Muted earthy green — well-suited for outdoor, nature-inspired, and earth-tone collections
• Orchid Stone: Soft washed purple — fashion-forward colorway for lifestyle, festival, and women's program applications
