Shirt Ordering Tips

Here are a few things to consider as you plan your shirt order.


3 BASIC WEIGHT CLASSES FOR SHIRTS:

Light Weight 4.3oz – 4.5 oz

Premium light weight shirts are very popular because of their super soft feel. These shirts are more fashionable and typically have a slimmer cut. They come in ring spun cotton, cotton/poly blends and tri-blends. If you wear an XL in a classic cut shirt then you would probably fit better in a 2XL in a slim cut tee.

Bella Canvas Unisex - District Concert Tee - Next Level Premium Crew

Standard Weight 5.3 – 5.4 oz

These shirts are the most common for any occasion. Team practice shirts, camp shirts, promo shirt, company shirts just to name a few. This weight comes in a wide variety of quality from inexpensive to higher end fashion styles.  

If you looking for a good quality basic shirt that will fit a wide audience of men, women, and kids and comes in a large variety of colors and sizes we recommend the following:

Gildan Heavy Cotton - Port & Company Core Cotton - Hanes Comfort Soft

Heavy Weight 6 – 6.1 oz
