Gildan Hammer™ Long Sleeve T-Shirt (H400) | Chicago Signs & Screen Printing
The Gildan Hammer™ Long Sleeve T-Shirt (H400) is built for one purpose: to perform as a custom decoration blank. At 6 oz., it weighs more than a standard long sleeve tee, and its high stitch density ring-spun cotton fabric creates a smooth, tight print surface that holds screen printing, embroidery, and vinyl heat transfer exceptionally well. Colors stay crisp, detail stays sharp, and the garment holds up wash after wash without fading or cracking. The classic fit works well across body types, the seamless 7/8″ rib collar keeps its shape over time, and taped neck and shoulders add structure and durability. Ribbed cuffs give the sleeves a polished, finished look. The tear-away label makes it easy to rebrand for retail-ready orders. Whether you’re outfitting a team, a restaurant crew, an event staff, or launching a merch line, the Gildan H400 is a reliable, print-ready foundation.

Looking for a long sleeve that actually prints well? The Gildan H400 Hammer is the answer. At Chicago Signs & Screen Printing, we recommend this blank for high-volume screen printing orders because the heavier weight and dense fabric deliver consistent, vibrant results across the full print area. Multicolor designs look sharp and fine line detail holds up the way it should. Embroidery and vinyl heat transfer also perform exceptionally on the H400 — the structured weave supports embroidered logos with great clarity, and heat transfers adhere cleanly without lifting at the edges. Furthermore, the tear-away label means your brand goes on the inside, not Gildan’s, a finishing detail that matters for retail and merch programs. Additionally, the classic unisex fit makes it easy to outfit mixed groups without sizing headaches.
