Material & Construction
The Gildan 980 is a men's slim-fit tee in 100% ring-spun cotton at 4.3 oz. Same ring-spun fabric weight as the unisex Softstyle 64000, but with a men's-specific slim cut that creates a more tapered silhouette. Ring-spun yarn provides a smooth, refined print surface for DTG applications.
At 4.3 oz this is a lightweight blank suited to fashion-forward product lines. Tubular construction is standard at this tier.
Print Compatibility
Compatible with DTG, DTF, and screen print. The ring-spun cotton surface supports detailed, high-quality prints. The slim fit may affect print sizing — designs should account for the narrower torso width.
