BEST T-SHIRT ON THE MARKET
Clients ask me what brand of t-shirt should I buy. The answer is resoundingly the Gildan 2000. Why the Gildan 2000? There are many reasons this is the t-shirt brand and style I recommend the most. First, it is a 100% cotton, 6.1 oz. shirt and it has a good price point. This means you're getting a good quality shirt at a good price. It is your "bang for the buck" basic t-shirt.
Other major selling points include that it comes in a lot of colors and it has a ladies companion style which is offered at the same price. This is the exception and not the rule as "ladies" tees usually cost more than unisex tees. The Gildan 2000 also has a "retail fit" which means sizing is fairly generic and tends to be a good fit for most body types. This becomes important if you are ordering shirts for large groups like races/runs, promotions, fundraisers or any event where you have to buy t-shirts and may not know every individuals t-shirt size. So what is the alternative if you want a more fashionable t-shirt with a lighter, softer feel and a slimmer fit...you'll want to check out the Gildan 64000. It's comparable to the very popular American Apparel tees. One of my self serving reasons for recommending the Gildan, inventory is good. Don't be fooled, this helps the buyer too. No one wants to place an order only to find out that the shirt they ordered isn't available in time for their event.
As if you weren't already sold on this brand, in my experience Gildan has their dye-lots dialed in to perfection, and the shirts hold their shape and experience minimal shrinkage after washing.
Not convinced? Check your closet and drawers. If you own t-shirts, you already own Gildan t-shirts whether you realize it or not.
