Just like the title states. Do major chains like a journeys, pac sun, etc etc care whether a shirt is ringspun or not, or do they generally look at the overall quality of the shirt regardless of ringspun/not ringspun?

Some probably do and some may not.

Having a ringspun cotton t-shirt puts forth a good first impression because the t-shirt is much softer to the touch. That could lead to more sales for them if customers feel the t-shirt is better quality because of the softness.

It may not be the only thing, or it may not be a "dealbreaker", but it could give you a few extra points.
