The Gildan 2000 is closer to the beefy t than the 5000. The 2000 is the same weight as the beefy, 6.1 oz. The 5000 is 5.3oz. The 2,000 is a favorite of a lot of us. It is a good, standard basic tee.

The difference between the Gildans and the beefy is the beefy is ringspun cotton. It is a softer, higher price point cotton than Gildan's jersey knit.

If you need ringspun, Alstyle has a comparable shirt, the 1701, although it is 5.5 oz instead of 6.1.

I would suggest the Alstyle or American Apparel. Both are comparable to the Beefy t, although a bit lighter in weight. The AA seems heavier than it really is due to its fluffiness. It is extremely soft as is the Alstyle.
