Default looking for a suitable t-shirt

Hi everyone,

i'm new to this forum, and have been reading through the forums and i'm amazed by the amount of information available.

I've a few questions to ask:

in terms of softness, durability and quality, which of the following tee-shirts are more suitable for screen printing?

1) Anvil 980 Men's 4.5 Oz. Short Sleeve Combed Ring Spun Fashion Fit Crewneck Tee

2) Anvil chromaZONE™ Adult Garment-Dyed Short Sleeve Crewneck Tee

3) Alstyle 1701

4) Gildan 2000

5) american apparel

Thanks in advance!

The shirt you choose I thnk depends on the type of style or look you are going for.

For everyday wear I would go with the Gildan 2000G. I use this shirt alot and customers seem to like it.

For a more fashion tee I would go with AA.

I have not tried Alstyle but have read some good things about the 1701.

My customers do not like Anvil so I don't use them at all.

The few customers that i asked did not like the way they fit. I think at the time I was carrying the Anvil A779 and the 979 but when selecting their tees they all picked the Gildan over the Anvil so I just stopped carrying them.
