Gildan 42000 Unisex Performance T-Shirt
A 5 oz./yd² 100% polyester jersey knit that moves moisture away from the skin and resists odor buildup during activity. The fabric has a soft cotton-like hand while remaining snag-resistant, and the surface takes sublimation cleanly. Modern classic fit with side seams, a single-needle topstitched collar, and taped neck and shoulders for durability. Tear-away label and double-needle hems finish the construction.
Where it gets used
Team uniforms, outdoor events, staff activewear, and programs where moisture management matters more than a heavy cotton hand. Safety Green meets high-visibility standards for jobsite or event use.
Who it is for
Buyers who need a lightweight performance tee for athletes, outdoor staff, or groups that work or move in warm conditions. It fits mixed groups from S to 3XL in a modern classic cut.
Why they pick this cut
The modern classic fit sits cleanly without feeling tight, and the polyester jersey stays light and dry. Side seams and taped shoulders add structure, while the soft hand makes the fabric comfortable for longer wear.
How they use it
Decorated for team kits, event staff shirts, outdoor programs, and sublimation or heat-transfer designs. The moisture-wicking fabric works for activity and then layers under outerwear when the day cools.
What wearers say
Wearers note the soft feel for a polyester tee and the way it wicks during outdoor work or activity. Many find it true to size and durable enough for regular rotation, with the fabric staying comfortable after washing and drying quickly.
Embroidery and print
The smooth polyester surface is suited for sublimation and heat transfer. Screen printing works with proper setup for polyester; test on the specific color. Embroidery sits cleanly on the jersey. Tear-away label removes before decoration.
Sizing
Unisex modern classic fit. Sizes S to 3XL. Body length and chest increase steadily; order a sample if the wearer prefers a closer or roomier cut.
