Custom Printed Gildan 64000 Softstyle T-Shirt

Gildan describes the Softstyle as high stitch density ring-spun cotton with a smooth printing surface, and that is exactly how it behaves on press: finer detail than an open-end tee, with a softer hand that people actually keep wearing.
It is the value pick for anyone who wants a retail-feeling shirt without paying fashion-blank prices: events, brand giveaways and merch where the 5000 feels too stiff and the 3001 is over budget.
Decoration
Which Decoration Method Works Best on the Gildan 64000?
Screen printing
Prints clean from our screen print minimum up, with good detail on thin lines and small text. Solid colors are 100% ring-spun cotton, so soft-hand water-based prints work well.
DTG
A good DTG blank on solid colors thanks to the 30-singles ring-spun surface. DTG has no minimum, so it covers samples and short runs.
Watch out for
The Dark Heather and Heather colorways are mostly polyester (65/35), so they will not discharge and DTG looks more muted on them. Pick a solid color for the brightest result.

Pricing
How Much Does It Cost to Print the Gildan 64000?
Two parts: the blank (from $5.50 per piece, live catalog price) plus decoration from the tiers below. A 48-piece run with a 1-color front print works out around $13.06 per piece before tax, with the screen already inside that figure rather than billed on top.
| Quantity | Per piece (1 color to 3 colors) |
|---|---|
| 36-49 pieces | $7.73 - $10.00/pc |
| 50-99 pieces | $5.43 - $7.04/pc |
| 100-199 pieces | $3.77 - $4.71/pc |
| 200-449 pieces | $2.77 - $3.35/pc |
| 450-999 pieces | $2.17 - $2.55/pc |
| 1000+ pieces | $1.43 - $1.66/pc |
| Under 36 pieces | $12.00 - $25.00/pc DTG (no minimum, no setup fee) |
Minimum 36 pieces. Prices are per piece, decoration only. Blank garment is additional and priced from live wholesale catalogs.
Screen setup is built into the per-piece price: one screen per ink color, plus one more for the white underbase on dark garments, spread across your run, so there is no separate setup line. More colors mean more screens, which is why color count moves the per-piece price and why the same design prices lower on a bigger run. Runs of 24 pieces or fewer also carry film and press setup, included the same way. We keep your artwork on file, so reorders are quick, and a repeat of the same design carries no setup, so it prices lower per piece.
Range shown is a 1-color to 3-color print, one location, with the screens already included. Each additional location is priced separately.
Decoration rates shown are for screen printing this blank; DTG and other methods are priced live in the calculator.
Prices exclude CA sales tax (10.5%), which applies to the blank garment only.
Every line item, including screens and multi-location prints, is explained in our screen printing cost guide.
