Gildan Heavy Cotton Ladies T-Shirts

Product Info

The Gildan Heavy ladies t-shirt is another excellent value and popular choice for custom screen printing.

With its classic fit and good range of colours, this shirt is perfect for printing up your band tees, or your amazing designs for your clothing label! It gives a much more generous fit than its more slimmer fitting Gildan Softstyle cousin.

Here's a tee made to be loved and lived in. The semi-fitted cut works beautifully with everything from jeans and shorts to chinos and skirts – a closet staple she’ll turn to again and again. The lofty 180gsm Jersey fabric has excellent body and a graceful drape that elevates the look every form of embellishment.

If you're looking to resell, the RRP on these t-shirts when custom printed ranges from £10-20!

The starting point and most important aspect of a screen printing job is your design. Making sure that your artwork file is sent across to us correctly is crucial...

Technical specifications

Colour: CMYK
Resolution: 300DPI
File Format: You can either upload your artwork above via PDF, or for other file types, add your items to basket & complete your order. You will then receive a confirmation email containing a Dropbox link to upload your artwork. Once we have received your artwork our team will be in contact with proofs for approval prior to print.

A few tips to get brilliant results...

Create your artwork with the resolution at 300dpi - the larger and clearer your file is, the better the end result when printed. Please note, we don’t accept 72dpi files as they are not adequate to create a quality job.

Think about the placement and sizing of your artwork on the t-shirt - a design with lots of detail might work best as an oversize front or back print, rather than a small left chest print.

If you're supplying a vector file, please make sure all your fonts are outlined.

We will separate your artwork for print for free if the file is high quality. If your file needs a lot of work, or needs recreating, we can do this but we may charge.
