Does the Gildan DryBlend crewneck run true to size?

It runs large and boxy. Many owners size down one for a closer fit, especially women wearing the unisex cut.

Is it good for screen printing or embroidery?

Yes. The plain cotton-blend surface is a common blank for screen printing, heat transfer and embroidery.

Does it shrink in the wash?

Some owners report shrinkage after the first wash. Cold water and low heat drying limit it.

What is DryBlend fabric?

It is a cotton-polyester blend treated to wick moisture, so it handles sweat better than plain cotton fleece.

How does it compare with a heavyweight fleece sweatshirt?

It is lighter and less warm. It layers well but is not a deep-winter piece like a 12 oz fleece.

Is it warm enough for cold weather?

It works as a mid-layer or for mild days. For freezing temperatures, pair it with a jacket.

Our take on the Gildan Unisex DryBlend Crewneck Sweatshirt

The Gildan DryBlend Crewneck is a plain, unisex cotton-blend sweatshirt built as a blank for printing and everyday layering. Its DryBlend fabric wicks moisture, which sets it apart from standard cotton fleece that holds sweat. It suits people who want a cheap, durable basic or a blank for screen printing and embroidery. Against fashion-brand crewnecks it is boxier and less refined in cut, but owners rate it highly for value and wash durability.
