Gildan 64000 Softstyle tee for events
The 64000 is Gildan's soft, lighter tee. It fits closer than a PC61 and the ring-spun cotton takes a soft water-based or discharge print well. We use Port & Company as our go-to budget blank, but when a group asks for Gildan by name or wants a softer shirt at a similar price, the 64000 is the one. Battle Born Clothing prints it in-house.
Blank quoted per job; print from $4.34 per location at 48

What a Softstyle event shirt costs
Print rate: $4.34 per location at 48 pieces, $0.25 flash per location on darks, $20 per screen per color. Blank quoted per job. The lighter fabric is a good match for water-based ink on light colors and discharge on darks, which keeps the print soft.
| Job | Print per piece | Screens (one-time) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 color, front only, light shirt | $4.34 | $20 |
| 1 color, front only, dark shirt (flash) | $4.59 | $20 |
| 1 color front + 1 color back, light shirt | $8.68 | $40 |
| 1 color front + 1 color back, dark shirt | $9.18 | $40 |
Decoration options
Screen print is the usual pick for event shirts on the 64000: 1 or 2 colors on the front, sponsor logos on the back. DTF transfers (produced by a Carson City partner and pressed in our shop) handle full-color art and small counts, quoted per job. Left-chest embroidery works for staff and volunteer shirts. Order a size up for people who are used to a classic cut. See decoration.
