Description
The American Apparel 2102W is the Women's Fine Jersey Tee, a 4.3 oz 100% combed ring-spun cotton tee cut to a slim women's fashion fit, the blank a shop reaches for when a women's line wants a fitted, soft fine-jersey body rather than a boxy unisex tee re-labelled for women. It is the tee for women's retail and merch lines, boutique and brand drops, soft-feel promotional runs cut for a fitted silhouette, and any decorator who wants the American Apparel fine-jersey hand on a slim women's pattern. The body is built on a 30-singles combed ring-spun cotton, with a 3/4 inch seamed collar, shoulder-to-shoulder tape, 7/8 inch double-needle sleeve and bottom hems, side seams and a double-satin razor label. The size range runs S through 2XL in a slim fashion fit, across 31 colours: the solids run a true 100% combed ring-spun cotton, while Heather Grey is a 90/10 that behaves close to a solid.
The 2102W prints like a true fine-jersey 100% cotton tee, with the slim women's panel the one thing to plan the decoration around. For screen printing, the fine 30-singles face holds line detail and bold spot colour; print straight to the light solids and lay a white underbase on the darks for opacity, and scale and centre the art to the narrower fitted chest so the design sits square on the slim panel. For water-based and discharge, the 100% cotton solids strip the dye and lay the ink into the cotton for a soft, no-hand print, the signature lightweight hand on a fashion fine jersey, while Heather Grey carries only a trace of polyester and discharges near-solid. For DTF, the transfer bonds to the cotton face at standard heat-press settings across every colour. For DTG, the cotton pre-treats and prints bright and sharp on the solids. For embroidery, keep the stitch count moderate on a cut-away backing so a dense patch does not pucker the lightweight slim body. For vinyl and HTV, solid heat-transfer vinyl presses clean on the jersey face, scaled to the fitted panel. Sublimation does not apply, since the cotton body is not a polyester sublimation substrate.

The reorder note specific to this style: the solids run a true 100% combed ring-spun cotton and Heather Grey a 90/10, so the colour card behaves close to a solid for screen, discharge and DTG with no heavy migration to manage on a repeat run. The slim fit holds its pattern wash to wash, so size a women's programme to the fitted silhouette rather than to a unisex chart. Cross-shop the American Apparel 2001 when a programme needs the matching unisex fine-jersey body in the same hand, and the Bella + Canvas B6400 when the job wants a women's relaxed jersey rather than a slim fitted cut. TheClothingSpace stocks the 2102W 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.

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 |
|---|---|---|
| White and light solids (White, Creme, Light Pink, Light Blue, Baby Blue, Mint, Sunshine, Aqua, Pink) | 100% combed ring-spun cotton, 4.3 oz | Print straight for the brightest result; minimal underbase needed and the cleanest discharge and DTG |
| Mid and dark solids (Black, Navy, Red, Forest, Royal Blue, Purple, Eggplant, Cranberry, Kelly Green) | 100% combed ring-spun cotton, 4.3 oz | Lay a white underbase for screen and DTG opacity; discharge strips the dye to a soft no-hand print on the dark cotton grounds |
| Heather Grey | 90/10 cotton/polyester | Behaves close to a solid; print and discharge near-solid with only minimal migration to manage and a thin underbase to lift opacity |
