AS Colour 5050 Block Tee – Premium 200 GSM T-Shirt

Description

The AS Colour 5050 Block Tee is a substantial 200 GSM blank T-shirt designed for buyers who want more weight and presence than a typical promotional tee without stepping all the way into AS Colour’s heavier options. Its midweight construction makes it particularly appealing for branded merchandise, streetwear and company apparel where the garment itself needs to feel considered.

For buyers comparing AS Colour tees, the 5050 Block Tee occupies a useful middle ground: more substantial than lighter everyday blanks while remaining below the 220 GSM Classic Tee 5026.

Why Choose the AS Colour 5050?

The 200 GSM fabric gives the Block Tee enough weight to feel substantial without making it an especially heavy shirt. That makes it a strong option when you want merchandise to have a more premium hand than a conventional promotional blank.

It’s particularly worth considering for brands that care about both the artwork and the garment carrying it.

The BFI Take

Choose the 5050 when you want some extra substance without jumping straight to a heavyweight tee.

I’d consider it for streetwear, artist merchandise, creative-company apparel and branded programs where the finished shirt should feel more intentional than giveaway merchandise.

If you want a lighter everyday AS Colour tee, look at the Staple 5001. If you specifically want a heavier 220 GSM shirt, compare it with the Classic 5026.

Best Uses

• Streetwear and branded apparel
• Artist and music merchandise
• Premium company apparel
• Creative agencies and studios
• Restaurant and hospitality merchandise
• Nonprofit and fundraising apparel
• Retail merchandise

Decoration

The AS Colour 5050 can work with several decoration methods depending on your artwork, quantity and desired finished appearance.

Its cotton construction and 200 GSM weight make screen printing a natural option for many merchandise projects. Other decoration methods may also make sense depending on the design.

Rather than choosing a process based solely on the garment, Breaking Free Industries can recommend a decoration method after looking at your artwork and how you intend to use the finished shirt.

AS Colour 5050 vs. 5001 vs. 5026

If you’re deciding between three popular AS Colour tees, fabric weight is a useful starting point.

The Staple 5001 is the lighter everyday option. The Block 5050, at 200 GSM, adds more substance. The Classic 5026, at 220 GSM, moves further toward a heavier feel.

That doesn’t make one inherently better. The right choice depends on the weight, fit, budget and finished presentation you want from your apparel.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the AS Colour 5050 a heavyweight T-shirt?

At 200 GSM, I’d describe the 5050 as a substantial midweight option rather than automatically calling it a heavyweight tee. If heavier weight is your priority, compare it with the 220 GSM AS Colour 5026.

What’s the difference between the AS Colour 5050 and 5001?

The 5050 provides a heavier, more substantial garment than the lighter Staple 5001. The 5001 makes sense as an everyday all-rounder, while the 5050 is worth considering when garment weight is more important to the project.

What’s the difference between the AS Colour 5050 and 5026?
