Description
The Gildan G860 is a unisex ringer tee with contrast-colored collar and cuffs at 5.3 oz. The two-tone ringer design adds retro styling to standard cotton blanks without additional decoration cost, making it popular for vintage-themed merch, band tees, and promotional apparel where the blank itself needs visual interest. Tubular body construction keeps the cost competitive.
The 100% cotton face takes DTG, screen printing, and DTF transfers cleanly. Discharge ink works on dark body colors. The 5.3 oz weight is the same as the Gildan Heavy Cotton platform, providing the same print characteristics. The contrast ringer collar and cuffs frame prints with built-in color accents.
