Gildan G123 - Adult DryBlend® Adult 9 oz., 50/50 Open-Bottom Sweatpants - Charcoal

The Gildan G123 is the DryBlend Open-Bottom Sweatpant, a 9 oz 50/50 cotton/poly fleece bottom built around Gildan's DryBlend moisture-wicking technology. DryBlend pulls moisture away from the body into the polyester side of the fleece, which means this pant performs in gym, warm-up, and active contexts where a standard Heavy Blend fleece would sit damp. The air jet yarn gives the face a soft, pill-resistant finish that holds up across wash cycles, and the slightly tapered open-bottom legs keep their shape rather than riding up or bunching at the ankle. The covered elastic waistband with an interior drawcord, jersey-lined sideseam pockets, differential rise for a better seated fit, and double-needle bottom hems round out a fleece pant that runs equally well in team warm-ups, school spirit-wear programs, gym kits, and staff uniform bottoms.

Decorating the G123 follows the same placement rule as any fleece pant: the print lands on the hip or thigh, and the sideseam pockets plus the elastic waistband set the boundaries. For DTF, the transfer bonds to the 50/50 DryBlend fleece face at standard heat-press settings and is the most practical route on a pant, ideal for a hip logo or a leg-length name and number run; set the press firmly so the transfer seats into the brushed nap and keep the placement clear of the pocket seam. For embroidery, the 9 oz DryBlend fleece takes a hip or thigh design hooped over a cut-away backing at moderate stitch density; the heavier 9 oz body carries more thread weight than a lighter 7.8 oz fleece without distortion. For screen printing, load a single pant leg onto a sleeve or leg platen to print flat: lay a poly-blocking underbase on the dark and navy colours, cure at a moderate-to-low temperature, and lay a slightly thicker ink deposit so the brushed nap does not show through. For vinyl, the flat hip and thigh panel presses names and numbers cleanly at a controlled temperature with a firm press. For DTG, the 50% cotton holds pre-treat, but the tubular pant leg is hard to lay flat on a DTG platen, so DTF or screen is the realistic route for fleece bottoms. Water-based and discharge inks are limited here, since the 50% polyester will not discharge and leaves only a faded tonal result.

The reorder note for the Gildan G123: the DryBlend moisture-wicking finish is the key differentiator over a standard Heavy Blend fleece pant, so if your program needs a performance fleece bottom that stays dry during warm-ups and activity, the G123 is the blank that delivers it. Place the print on the hip or thigh clear of the sideseam pockets and waistband, favour DTF or embroidery on the DryBlend fleece face, and plan a sleeve or leg platen if the order calls for screen printing a single leg flat. Pair it with the Gildan G125 DryBlend Hoodie or the Gildan G120 DryBlend Crewneck from the same DryBlend family to run a matched moisture-wicking fleece set in one colour family. For a budget fleece bottom without the moisture-wicking finish, the Gildan G182 Heavy Blend Sweatpant runs the same 50/50 fleece at a lower price point. TheClothingSpace stocks the Gildan G123 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.
