Gildan 18500 — the pullover hoodie

Price range: $14.99 through $24.99Per garment.

8 oz fleece pullover with a front pouch. The highest-ticket blank we carry, and the one with the trickiest print area.

SKU: N/A Category:

What it is

The 18000 with a hood and a front pouch pocket. It is the piece people actually keep, which is why it carries the best margin of anything in this list — and it is also the hardest to print well, because the pocket eats the bottom third of the front.

How it presses

Keep the print above the pocket seam. In practice that means a design no taller than about 9 inches centred high on the chest, or a left chest, or the back. Long pre-press, firm pressure, full cool before it moves. Do not try to press across the pocket seam with a flat platen — use a pillow or accept a soft edge.

When to pick it

When you are selling to someone rather than clothing a crew. Price it accordingly; nobody expects a hoodie to cost what a tee costs.

We do not publish day counts — the print is ours to promise, the truck is not. Your tracking email carries the carrier's own estimate for your address. Sheets up to 24 inches ship flat between boards; longer sheets are rolled face-in and boxed. Nothing is folded. What each ground leg looks like.

Returning a blank

Unworn, unwashed and unprinted, within 30 days. A blank garment is a stock item, not a made-to-order one, so the custom-print rules do not apply to it. Tell us what you are sending back and we refund it once it arrives.

Once you have pressed it, it is yours. A transfer applied to a shirt makes it a finished piece, and we cannot take that back — which is the argument for ordering one of something before you order forty.

Wrong item, a fault in the garment, or transit damage is ours either way: photographs within 7 days and we replace it. Full policy.
