Description
The Gildan H000 is the Hammer Unisex T-Shirt, a 6.0 oz 100% ring-spun cotton heavyweight tee built around a high stitch density that gives a decorator a smooth, dense print surface heavier than a standard 5.3 oz blank. It is the tee a shop reaches for when a print job needs a substantial hand and a clean face for tight halftones and fine line work, the default for retail-tier merch, music and brand drops, and decorators who want a heavyweight ring-spun feel at a Gildan price rather than a premium retail one. The ring-spun yarn is smoother and softer than open-end cotton, the high-density knit takes ink crisply without the texture an open-end heavyweight shows, and the H000 runs a deep colour card of solids plus a Sport Grey and a Graphite Heather.
The 100% ring-spun cotton body makes this a flexible print blank, and the smooth high-density face is the reason a screen printer reaches for it. Screen printing is the headline method: print straight on white and light bodies, and on darks run a standard white underbase, where the dense smooth face holds tight halftones and fine detail better than a coarser open-end heavyweight. DTG prints bright and crisp on the 100% ring-spun cotton solids, an ideal digital target on this smooth face; it turns muted over the 50/50 Graphite Heather and prints near-solid on the 90/10 Sport Grey, so route the brightest digital art to the solid colourways. Discharge strips the cotton solids to a soft vintage hand with no hand feel, ideal on this heavyweight ring-spun body; it fails on the 50/50 Graphite Heather and wants a wash-test on the 90/10 Sport Grey, since the polyester content will not discharge clean. DTF presses consistently across the whole card, including the heathers, and is the most reliable single method when one artwork has to span solids and the grey blends. Embroidery sits well on the heavy 6.0 oz body with a cut-away backing. Vinyl and HTV bond cleanly for names and numbers on a team or event run. Sublimation does not apply, since the cotton body will not hold the dye; route to a 100% polyester tee for dye-sub.

The reorder note specific to this style: confirm whether your colourway is a solid 100% ring-spun, the 90/10 Sport Grey or the 50/50 Graphite Heather before a repeat run, because the blend changes how discharge and DTG behave on the grey shades. The H000 Hammer is Gildan's heavyweight ring-spun answer that sits above the 5.3 oz G500 Heavy Cotton and the 6.0 oz G200 Ultra Cotton on print-face smoothness, so a program can step up to it for retail-tier merch while staying on a Gildan price and colour system. The high-density smooth face keeps screen and DTG detail consistent run after run.

Decoration Method Compatibility
How this blank performs across popular decoration methods.
| Method | Compatible | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Screen Print | ✓ | the headline method; print straight on white and light bodies, and on darks run a standard white underbase, where the dense smooth high-stitch-density face holds tight halftones and fine detail better than a coarser open-end heavyweight |
| DTG | ✓ | prints bright and crisp on the 100% ring-spun cotton solids, an ideal digital target on this smooth face; turns muted over the 50/50 Graphite Heather and near-solid on the 90/10 Sport Grey, so route the brightest digital art to the solids |
| DTF | ✓ | presses consistently across the whole card including the heathers; the most reliable single method when one artwork has to span solids and the grey blends |
| Discharge | ✓ | strips the cotton solids to a soft vintage hand with no hand feel, ideal on this heavyweight ring-spun body; fails on the 50/50 Graphite Heather and wants a wash-test on the 90/10 Sport Grey, since the polyester will not discharge clean |
| Embroidery | ✓ | sits well on the heavy 6.0 oz body with a cut-away backing; the high-density knit gives a stable ground for a left-chest or sleeve logo |
| Vinyl / HTV | ✓ | bonds cleanly for names and numbers on a team or event run; the smooth face presses without texture |
| Sublimation | ✗ | the cotton body will not hold the dye, so this is not a dye-sublimation substrate; route to a 100% polyester tee for dye-sub |

Fabric Blend by Color Group
Not all colorways share the same fabric composition. Check the blend before ordering for decoration jobs where substrate matters.
| Color Group | Blend | Print Consideration |
|---|---|---|
| Solid colours (White, Off White, Black, Sport Dark Navy, Irish Green, Berry, Coral Silk and most of the card) | 100% ring-spun cotton | The print target: screen straight on lights with a white underbase on darks, run DTG bright, and discharge to a soft vintage hand |
| Sport Grey (Rs Sport Gray) | 90/10 cotton/polyester | Near-solid behaviour: screen and DTF print clean, DTG prints close to a solid, but wash-test discharge since the 10% poly will not strip fully |
| Graphite Heather | 50/50 cotton/polyester | The heather tier: run a low-bleed white underbase and reduced cure, press DTF for the most consistent result, and skip discharge since the 50% poly will not knock out |
