Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the Gildan 3000 good for screen printing and embroidery?
A: Yes! The Gildan 3000 is one of the most popular blanks for decoration. The smooth cotton surface accepts ink beautifully, and the modern fit provides a professional finished look. The tearaway label makes rebranding simple.
Q: How does the Gildan 3000 fit compared to other styles?
A: The Gildan 3000 features a modern classic fit – slightly more fitted than traditional boxy tees but not as slim as fashion-forward styles. It's designed to flatter a wide range of body types and works well for both men and women.
Q: What's the difference between Gildan 3000 and Gildan 5000?
A: The Gildan 3000 (4.45 oz) is lighter and softer than the Gildan 5000 (5.3 oz Heavy Cotton). The 3000 uses Gildan's Light Cotton technology for improved softness and printability, while the 5000 offers a heavier, more substantial feel. Both are excellent choices depending on your preference.

A: We ship from a 10-warehouse network across the U.S., which means faster delivery times and lower shipping costs. Most orders ship within 1-2 business days.
Q: Are the heather colors 100% cotton?
A: Most heather colors (Dark Heather, Graphite Heather, Heather & Safety colors) are 50/50 cotton/polyester blends. Sport Grey is 90/10 cotton/polyester, and Ash Grey is 99/1 cotton/polyester. Solid colors are 100% cotton.
