Common Questions

Can I order the AS Colour 5001 with my logo?
Yes. Breaking Free Industries can decorate the AS Colour 5001 for company apparel, merchandise and other custom projects. We’ll recommend the decoration method based on your artwork, quantity and intended use.

What decoration method works best on the 5001?
Screen printing is the most popular choice — the combed cotton provides an ideal surface for clean ink laydown. DTG works well for photo-realistic or complex artwork. Embroidery is solid for left-chest logos with standard backing.

Is this good for merch programs and retail resale?
Yes. The 5001 is specifically built for brands selling tees, not just giving them away. The fabric weight and construction hold up to repeated wear, and the modern fit works across demographics.

How does the sizing run?
True to size with a modern fit — slightly more tailored than traditional American blanks without being slim. Consistent across production runs, which matters for reorders.

What is the right quantity for custom decoration?
Breaking Free Industries specializes in affordable low-volume custom apparel. We’ll recommend the garment and decoration method that makes sense for your quantity, artwork, and deadline. Start Your Project to discuss the order.
