Hanes 498L - Perfect-T Long Sleeve Tee - Black
Selected Color: Black7 colors
Choose Size
Description
The Hanes 498L is the long-sleeve version of the Perfect-T line at 4.5 oz ringspun cotton. Side-seamed construction with rib cuffs provides a modern fit that prints well across the chest, back, and sleeves. The Perfect-T name reflects Hanes' upgraded ringspun construction over their legacy lines, delivering a smoother surface for decoration.
The 100% ringspun cotton face takes DTG, screen printing, and DTF transfers cleanly. Discharge ink works on dark colors. The 4.5 oz weight is midweight, so use moderate ink deposits for screen printing. Water-based inks absorb for a soft hand. The rib cuffs keep the sleeves in place, which matters for cuff-area prints.

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 Colors | 100% ringspun cotton | Full decoration compatibility. Darks take discharge and DTG with pretreat. |
| Heather/Ash Colors | 90-99% cotton, 1-10% polyester | Slight poly content. Discharge still effective. DTF recommended for maximum vibrancy on heathers. |
