Gildan · Style 18000 · Heavy Blend™ Crewneck
The straightforward crewneck. No hood, no pocket - just a clean 8 oz fleece canvas that prints beautifully and works as well for merch drops as it does for company gear.
Real numbers back the same business day — not a range.

Garment photos are supplier stock images of the actual blank. Heather colorways run a higher poly content than the solids and print slightly differently - we account for it on your mockup.
Tell us what you are printing and roughly how many. We come back the same business day with real numbers, not a range.

The crewneck is having a moment - merch brands and boutiques are printing more crews than hoodies right now. Same fabric as the 18500, cleaner canvas, lower price.
This is the part most printers will not tell you before they take your money.
No hood, no pocket, no drawcord – nothing interrupting the print area. Big front graphics and full backs land exactly where the art calls for them.
50/50 fabric gets a low-bleed underbase on darks and brights so the garment dye stays out of your ink. Standard practice here; worth asking about anywhere else.
Garment-dye-look colorways and heathers on a crew silhouette read as retail, not uniform. If you are selling this rather than issuing it, the crewneck earns its keep.
Ordering tees at the same time? See our best sellers – printing shirts and crews together under one setup saves real money.
24 pieces, with no setup fees. Mix colors and sizes inside that 24, and mix in the matching 18500 hoodie under the same print setup.
Same fabric, different job. The hoodie is the crew-gear workhorse; the crewneck is the cleaner, more retail look and prints with zero placement restrictions. Merch lines increasingly go crew.
The 50/50 blend keeps shrinkage low. Wash cold, dry low, and the rib trim with spandex keeps collar and cuffs from bagging out.
Yes - front, back, and sleeves. Each location is its own setup, and we will price the combinations when you send the form.
It is a classic fleece, brushed inside, and customers sell plenty of it. For a premium heavyweight merch crew, ask us about upgraded fleece options and we will quote both.
Both. We are in Deerfield Beach and plenty of customers pick up, but we ship orders anywhere in the US.
24-piece minimum. No setup fees. Same-day pricing from a shop that runs this blank every week.
