Gildan Performance T-Shirts FAQs

What makes the Gildan 42000 different from other performance shirts?

This shirt is made from 100% spun polyester, giving it a softer, more t-shirt-like feel instead of a slick athletic finish.

When should I choose this over a typical dri-fit shirt?

Choose this when you want moisture-wicking performance with a more natural, cotton-like feel.

Is this a good option for everyday wear?

Yes, it’s ideal for groups that want performance benefits without the shiny or synthetic look.

What type of designs work best on this shirt?

Simple designs with fewer colors work best to keep the print light and comfortable.

Will printing affect how the shirt feels?

Heavier prints can add weight, so lighter designs help maintain its soft, breathable feel.
