Description
The Fruit of the Loom IC47MR is the ICONIC Tee, a 4.6 oz 30-singles ring-spun fashion tee that puts a soft retail hand and a deep heathered colour card at a value price, the blank a shop reaches for when a job wants the soft-fashion look of a Bella or a Next Level body without the per-piece cost of the premium benchmarks. It is the tee for retail and merch lines that print heavy, soft-feel promotional runs, boutique and brand programmes, and any decorator who wants a ring-spun hand and a full heather range but is buying to a budget rather than a spec sheet. The body is built on a 30-singles ring-spun cotton in a pre-shrunk jersey, with a seamless 1x1 ribbed collar, shoulder-to-shoulder taping, a quarter-turned cut that keeps the panel square and a tear-away label. The size range runs XS through 4XL in a unisex classic fit, across 31 colours weighted heavily to heathers. The blend follows the colour: the solids run a true 100% USA-grown ring-spun cotton, most heathers run a 60/40 cotton/polyester CVC, Athletic Heather and Peppered Red Heather run a cotton-rich 90/10, and Aqua Velvet, Candy Hearts, Mint To Be and Oatmeal Heather run a 99/1 that behaves like a solid.
Because the blend changes by colour, match the decoration to the ground. For screen printing, the soft 30-singles face holds fine line detail and bold spot colour; print straight to the light solids, lay a white underbase on the dark solids for opacity, and on the 60/40 heathers run a low-bleed poly-blocking underbase and cure at the minimum effective temperature so the 40% polyester does not migrate dye into the ink. For water-based and discharge, the 100% cotton solids strip the dye for a soft, no-hand print, the cleanest discharge result on the card, while the 60/40 heathers do not fully discharge and read as a soft tonal rather than a true strip. For DTF, the transfer bonds to every colour at standard heat-press settings, the most consistent single method across the mixed blends. For DTG, the cotton solids pre-treat and print brightest, and the heathers take a white underbase to lift opacity over the flecked ground. For embroidery, the lightweight 4.6 oz body supports a left-chest or moderate-stitch design on an appropriate backing so a dense patch does not pucker the soft jersey. For vinyl and HTV, solid heat-transfer vinyl presses clean on the face. Sublimation does not apply, since the cotton-majority body is not a polyester sublimation substrate.

The reorder note specific to this style: the blend changes by colour, so lock the print process to the colour family rather than the whole card, default to a poly-blocking underbase and a low cure on the 60/40 heathers, and treat the solids as a true 100% cotton body for the cleanest discharge and DTG. Cross-shop the Jerzees 560MR when a programme wants a heavier 5.2 oz true 50/50 premium blend with moisture-wicking, and the Bella + Canvas 3001CVC when the job wants the recognised premium 52/48 CVC benchmark and the budget allows it. TheClothingSpace stocks the IC47MR 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.
