Description

The Independent Trading SS3000 is an 8.5 oz midweight crewneck sweatshirt with a 100% cotton 20 singles face yarn over an 80/20 cotton/poly fleece body. That cotton face is the practical differentiator: it prints and embroiders like a cotton tee surface while the poly backing adds structure and reduces shrinkage. For shops running branded crew programs or retail-quality merch drops, the SS3000 sits between lightweight fashion crews and heavy 12 oz blanks.

Standard solid colors and camo prints are 80/20 cotton/poly. Grey Heather and Gunmetal Heather shift to 75/25. Charcoal Heather, Classic Navy Heather, Royal Heather, and Army Heather move further to 55/45 cotton/poly, which changes the decoration math: those heather shades carry enough polyester to risk dye migration on dark grounds and will not discharge. Camo colorways use water-based surface prints on the cotton face; do not exceed 320 degrees F when flashing or curing to avoid disturbing the camo pattern.

Screen printing and DTF transfers work across the full color card. The cotton face holds mid-detail and bold halftones cleanly. Embroidery benefits from the 8.5 oz weight, dense enough for left-chest and full-back stitch programs without puckering. DTG prints well on solids and 80/20 shades but loses vibrancy on the 55/45 heathers where polyester mutes pretreat absorption.

Decoration Method Compatibility

How this blank performs across popular decoration methods.

Method Compatible Notes
DTF Transfer ✓ Primary method. Bonds to cotton face yarn across full card including camo and heathers. Forgiving on 55/45 heather shades where DTG and discharge fail.
Screen Print ✓ Cotton face holds mid-detail and bold halftones. White underbase on colored grounds. 55/45 heathers need poly-block underbase + moderate cure. Camo: do not exceed 320F flash/cure.
Embroidery ✓ 8.5 oz midweight dense enough for left-chest and full-back stitch programs. Cut-away stabilizer recommended. Flat crew front is largest unobstructed embroidery panel.
DTG (Direct to Garment) ✓ Works well on 80/20 solids. Cotton face accepts pretreat, white underbase on darks. 55/45 heathers mute vibrancy, route to DTF. 75/25 Grey/Gunmetal Heather acceptable with light muting.
Vinyl/HTV ✓ Standard HTV. Dense fleece supports firm press. Names, numbers, simple graphics.
Discharge Printing ✗ 80/20 solids discharge partially but 20% poly ghost remains. 55/45 heathers will not discharge. Not a reliable method across the full color card.
Sublimation ✗ Cotton-majority fabric. Not suitable for sublimation.

Frequently Asked Questions

The SS3000 is an 8.5 oz midweight fleece. Standard solids and camo are 80/20 cotton/poly with 100% cotton face yarn. Grey Heather and Gunmetal Heather are 75/25. Charcoal Heather, Classic Navy Heather, Royal Heather, and Army Heather are 55/45 cotton/poly.
Yes, but with a temperature limit. Camo colorways use water-based surface prints on the cotton face. Do not exceed 320 degrees F during flash or final cure, or the camo base print can migrate and distort. Standard solid colors have no temperature restriction beyond normal cure guidelines.
Screen printing and DTF transfers are primary across all colors. The 100% cotton face yarn holds mid-detail and bold art cleanly. Embroidery works well on the 8.5 oz body. DTG prints best on 80/20 solids. The 55/45 heathers carry too much poly for reliable DTG or discharge, so route those to DTF or plastisol with a poly-block underbase.
Both use the same 8.5 oz midweight fleece with cotton face yarn and share the same blend breakdown by color group. The SS3000 is the crewneck version with a flat unobstructed front panel. The SS4500 adds a hood, drawcord, and kangaroo pocket. They pair for matched crew-and-hoodie fleece programs.
The Independent Trading SS3000 starts at $12.66 per piece at TheClothingSpace with wholesale pricing. Bulk discounts increase with case and unit quantity. No minimum order required on most colors, and stocked colors ship same day.
