Fruit of the Loom 4930 - Unisex HD Cotton™ Long-Sleeve T-Shirt - Black Heather

The Fruit of the Loom 4930 is the HD Cotton Long-Sleeve Tee, the long-sleeve companion to the value short-sleeve 3931 in the same 5 oz 100% cotton HD Cotton body. The HD Cotton high-density knit is the point: it runs a tighter, smoother face than a basic open-end value tee at a value unit cost, here cut to a full long-sleeve with 1x1 ribbed cuffs and a seamless ribbed collar. That makes it the long-sleeve a shop reaches for when a program wants a value 100% cotton long-sleeve body that matches a 3931 short-sleeve order, the default for school spirit and team long-sleeves, cooler-weather event and fundraiser runs, layering and uniform programs, and any high-volume long-sleeve order where a value 100% cotton body and a printable sleeve decide it over a premium ring-spun blank.

The 4930 prints like the short-sleeve 3931: a true 100% cotton tee on its solid colours with a smooth high-density face, and the long-sleeve adds the cuff and full sleeve as extra print real estate. For screen printing, the HD Cotton face holds bold spot colour and fine detail; print straight to the light solids and lay a white underbase on the darks, and the full sleeve takes a sleeve print or a cuff hit cleanly. 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, ideal for an all-over or sleeve-length discharge run. For DTF, the transfer bonds to the cotton face at standard heat-press settings across every colour, the most consistent single method on the heathers as well as the solids. For DTG, the cotton pre-treats and prints on the solids, clean and bright on the smooth HD Cotton face. For embroidery, the 5 oz body takes a left-chest or sleeve design with a cut-away backing. For vinyl and HTV, solid heat-transfer vinyl presses clean on the cotton face. The caveat is the heathers: Ash is a 98/2, Athletic Heather a 90/10 and Graphite Heather a 70/30 that behave close to a solid, but Black Heather, Retro Heather and the Safety colours are 50/50 blends, where the polyester migrates and discharge fades to a tonal result, so treat those like a blend with a grey poly-block underbase on the darks and a lower cure. Sublimation does not apply, since the cotton-dominant body is not a polyester sublimation substrate.

The reorder note specific to this style: the solids run a true 100% cotton while Ash, Athletic Heather and Graphite Heather are cotton-rich and Black Heather, Retro Heather and the Safety colours are 50/50, so confirm whether your colour is a solid or a heather before a repeat run, because the 50/50 heathers will not discharge to the same soft result as the solids and need a poly-block underbase. Pair the 4930 with the short-sleeve Fruit of the Loom 3931 to run the same HD Cotton body and artwork across long and short sleeves, and cross-shop the Gildan G540 Heavy Cotton Long-Sleeve when a job wants a heavier long-sleeve body.
