Material & Construction
The Gildan 18000 uses the same 50/50 cotton-polyester Heavy Blend fabric as the 18500 hoodie at 8.0 oz, in a crew-neck sweatshirt silhouette. The blend keeps cotton and polyester in equal proportions while maintaining enough cotton content for DTG printing. Open-end yarn is listed with tubular construction.
Tubular construction keeps manufacturing cost lower than side-seamed alternatives. The crew neckline provides a clean, unobstructed print area across the chest — wider than hooded versions where the hood attachment limits the top of the printable zone.
Print Compatibility
Compatible with DTG, DTF, embroidery, and screen print. The flat chest area of the crewneck silhouette maximizes the available print zone compared to hooded alternatives in the same fabric.
