AS Colour Classic Tee | 5026

Description

The AS Colour Classic Tee is the heavyweight answer to buyers who’ve had it with blanks that thin out after a few washes. At 220GSM combed cotton, this sits firmly in premium territory — the kind of substantial hand-feel that streetwear labels and brand-forward organizations reach for when the garment itself is part of the message. The fabric has density without stiffness, and the combed cotton construction keeps the surface smooth enough for detailed print work.

Who Orders It

Streetwear brands building collections that need to feel expensive. Record labels and music venues producing artist merch that fans actually wear. Creative agencies ordering internal swag that doesn’t end up in the donation bin. Breweries and coffee roasters who want their logo on something customers reach for repeatedly. Nonprofit organizations running donor appreciation programs where quality reflects the mission.

Decoration

The 220GSM weight gives screen printers a stable canvas — ink sits on top without bleeding through, and the combed surface reduces the texture interference you get on ringspun alternatives. DTG prints hold detail well on this fabric density. Embroidery works cleanly; the heavier construction supports 8,000–12,000 stitch counts without puckering. For multicolor screen work, the preshrunk stability means registration stays accurate across production runs.

Common Questions

What decoration method works best on the 5026?
Screen printing is the natural fit for this weight — the dense fabric holds ink beautifully without bleed-through. DTG and embroidery both perform well; the heavier construction supports detailed work without distortion.

Is this good for branded merch programs?
This is exactly what it’s built for. The 220GSM weight signals quality the moment someone picks it up. Brands use it when the tee needs to do more than carry a logo — it needs to represent the brand’s standards.

How does the sizing run?
True to size with a regular fit. AS Colour maintains tight tolerances across production, so sizing stays consistent whether you’re ordering 24 or 2,400 pieces.

What’s the minimum order for custom decoration?
