Description
The Anvil 988AN is a 4.0 oz unisex lightweight ringer tee in a 50/25/25 polyester/combed ring-spun cotton/rayon triblend with contrast-color ringer collar and sleeve bands. The ringer construction frames the neckline and sleeves with a contrasting trim that adds retro visual interest without requiring a custom print, which is why vintage-aesthetic merch programs, boutique retail lines, and craft-brand tees use it when a two-tone detail elevates perceived value above a standard blank. The triblend produces the heathered, soft-hand finish that retail channels sell at higher margins. Side-seam build. Sizes S through 2XL.
DTG printing on the 50/25/25 triblend gives the faded vintage ink appearance that retail merch brands target. Pretreat heather body colors and cure at the lower end of the manufacturer's temperature range to protect the rayon fiber. DTF transfers bond at standard settings on the triblend face. Screen printing requires poly-block ink on every colorway because the 50% polyester base carries dye-migration risk with standard plastisol. Discharge gives a muted vintage result on darker triblend bodies. HTV for names and small text. Embroidery at moderate density on the chest with a tear-away backing.
