Description
The All Sport Y2780 is a youth mesh tank built on 100% polyester birdseye micro-mesh knit jacquard with dry-wicking and anti-microbial finishes. It is the blank a shop reaches for on youth basketball rosters, school athletic and PE programs, summer camp teams, and youth league spirit orders where an open-mesh jersey feel and a printable polyester face matter more than a cotton hand. The store stocks 11 colourways in youth XS-XL, almost all of them deep team shades (Black, Sport Navy, Sport Dark Navy, Sport Red, Sport Royal, Sport Graphite, Sport Purple, Sport Kelly, Sport Maroon, Sport Forest) plus Sport Light Blue. The 100% polyester construction is the specification that decides every decoration method, and the dark colour card pushes the print plan toward DTF and poly-block plastisol rather than sublimation, since dye-sublimation only reads on a light ground.
For DTF heat transfers, the micro-mesh polyester surface bonds reliably across the full colour card, including the darks, and DTF is the most consistent route on this tank because it carries its own white base. Press at the lower range of time and temperature, since a light open mesh can show polymer shine or hand distortion under a hot platen, and confirm the film bridges the mesh holes cleanly on a test press before the run. For screen printing with plastisol, lay a low-bleed poly-block underbase on every coloured body and cure at the minimum effective temperature, because 100% polyester migrates garment dye into the print on a hot cure, worst on the reds, maroons, and purples in this range. The open birdseye mesh also lets ink push through the holes, so a thicker stencil and a controlled flood keep the deposit on the face rather than the platen. Sublimation is viable only on Sport Light Blue, the single light ground in the card; on that colourway dye-sublimation bonds into the polyester fibre for a permanent no-hand graphic, but it will not show on any of the dark shades. Vinyl and HTV apply well on the mesh with a poly-friendly heat-transfer vinyl pressed at a low temperature for numbers and names, the common decoration on a youth team tank. Embroidery is not recommended, since the light open mesh has no body to hold a dense stitch and puckers without heavy stabilisation; route logos to DTF. DTG does not apply, because the 100% polyester will not hold pre-treat or ink, so route digital artwork to DTF.

The reorder note specific to the Y2780: every colour is the same 100% polyester micro-mesh, so the print approach holds across the card, DTF or poly-block plastisol on the darks and sublimation reserved for Sport Light Blue, and the polyester construction does not shift by dye lot the way garment-dyed cotton does, so a repeat order of the same team colour stays consistent run to run. Pair the Y2780 with the adult All Sport M2780 mesh tank to size a basketball or athletic program from youth through adult on one matched jersey. TheClothingSpace stocks the Y2780 at wholesale pricing with bulk discounts that increase as case and unit quantities rise, among the lowest prices online for this style, with fast US shipping on stocked colours.

Decoration Method Compatibility
How this blank performs across popular decoration methods.
| Method | Compatible | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| DTF Transfer | ✓ | the most consistent route on the Y2780 because it carries its own white base across the dark colour card; press at the lower range of time and temperature so the light open mesh does not show polymer shine, and confirm the film bridges the mesh holes cleanly on a test press |
| Sublimation | ✓ | viable only on Sport Light Blue, the single light ground in the card; dye-sublimation bonds into the polyester fibre for a permanent no-hand graphic but will not show on any of the dark shades |
| Screen Print (Plastisol) | ✓ | lay a low-bleed poly-block underbase on every coloured body and cure at the minimum effective temperature, since 100% polyester migrates garment dye on a hot cure, worst on reds, maroons, and purples; use a thicker stencil and controlled flood so ink does not push through the open birdseye mesh |
| Vinyl / HTV | ✓ | a poly-friendly heat-transfer vinyl presses at a low temperature for numbers and names, the common decoration on a youth team tank; use stretch-tolerant vinyl on the open mesh |
| Embroidery | ✗ | the light open birdseye mesh has no body to hold a dense stitch and puckers without heavy stabilisation; route logos to DTF |
| DTG | ✗ | DTG is a cotton process and the 100% polyester will not hold pre-treat or ink, so the print washes out; route digital artwork to DTF |
| Screen Print (Water-based / Discharge) | ✗ | there is no cotton in this body for a discharge ink to strip; route soft prints to a poly-block plastisol or to DTF |

Fabric Blend by Color Group
Not all colorways share the same fabric composition. Check the blend before ordering for decoration jobs where substrate matters.
| Color Group | Blend | Print Consideration |
|---|---|---|
| Sport Light Blue (the single light ground) | 100% polyester birdseye micro-mesh | the only colour in the card that sublimates; dye-sublimation bonds into the fibre, and a DTF or plastisol print needs little or no poly-block here |
| Dark and saturated colours (Black, Sport Navy, Sport Dark Navy, Sport Red, Sport Royal, Sport Graphite, Sport Purple, Sport Kelly, Sport Maroon, Sport Forest) | 100% polyester birdseye micro-mesh | heaviest dye migration on reds, maroons, and purples; lay a white poly-block underbase for plastisol or press a low-bleed DTF film, cure low; sublimation will not read on these grounds |
