Does this sweatshirt shrink?

It is pre-shrunk, but some owners still report noticeable shrinkage, mostly in length. Wash cold and tumble low to limit it.

Is it good for screen printing?

Yes. The high stitch density and quarter-turned body give a flat, smooth surface, and the 50/50 blend holds plastisol well.

How does it compare with the Gildan 18000?

Both are 8 oz. 50/50 crewnecks. The Jerzees has a slightly denser, pill-resistant fleece; the Gildan is often described as softer but pills more.

What sizes and colors come in the case?

Cases are packed by size and color, so check the specific listing for the size run and color before ordering.

It fits as a standard, slightly boxy adult crewneck. Most buyers take their usual size, though those wanting a loose fit size up.

Can it be worn on its own or only as a layer?

Either. It works as a standalone sweatshirt or under a jacket, though the 50/50 fleece is midweight rather than heavy.
