AS Colour Classic Plus Tee [+5cm] 5070

Description

The AS Colour Classic Plus Tee solves a real problem: premium blanks that fit taller wearers without going up a full size. The 5070 adds 5cm of body length to the standard Classic Tee while keeping the same chest and shoulder dimensions. At 220GSM combed cotton, it’s a heavyweight blank with the softness and print-readiness that AS Colour is known for — just built for different bodies and different silhouettes.

Who Orders It

Streetwear labels designing drop-cut or elongated fits order the 5070 as their base layer. Tall sizing programs at corporate brands use it to extend their size range without compromising on quality. Music venues and festival merch teams stock it alongside standard lengths to serve more customers. Skate and basketball brands building collections for athletes who need the extra length. Nonprofits and schools running inclusive apparel programs that actually fit everyone on the team.

Decoration

The 220GSM fabric weight gives you a stable print surface across all major methods. Screen printing lays down clean with minimal ink migration — the combed cotton accepts plastisol and water-based inks evenly. DTG performs well on this weight; expect sharp detail retention and consistent color saturation. Embroidery holds at standard stitch counts without puckering, though we recommend backing on designs over 8,000 stitches. The extended body length means more canvas for oversized back prints or vertical designs that would crowd a standard tee.

Common Questions

What decoration method works best on the 5070?
Screen printing is the most popular choice for production runs — the heavyweight cotton handles multiple colors and large format prints without show-through. DTG works well for detailed or photographic designs. Embroidery is solid for left-chest logos and smaller placements.

How much longer is this than a standard AS Colour tee?
The 5070 adds exactly 5cm (about 2 inches) to the body length compared to the Classic Tee 5026. Chest, shoulder, and sleeve measurements remain the same at each size.

Is this good for tall sizing programs?
Yes — this is specifically why it exists. Rather than sizing up and getting a baggy fit, taller wearers get the extra length they need while maintaining the intended silhouette.

What’s the minimum order for custom decoration?
We work with programs from 12 pieces. Most decorated apparel programs start at 24–50 pieces. Request a quote and we’ll work with your specific order size.
