Comfort Colors 1717
The Comfort Colors 1717 is one of the most sought-after blanks in the custom apparel industry — and for good reason. Built from 6.1-ounce, 100% US ring-spun cotton, this heavyweight tee goes through a soft-washing and garment-dyeing process that gives it an instantly lived-in feel right out of the bag. The relaxed, tubular fit drapes naturally on all body types, while the double-needle collar and bottom hems add structure and long-lasting durability. A twill-taped neck and shoulders reduce distortion over time, keeping your print looking sharp wash after wash. The 1717 is pre-shrunk during the dye process, so the fit you print is the fit your customer keeps. Available in over 65 earthy, saturated, and neon colorways — from classic Ivory and Navy to trending shades like Hydrangea and Washed Denim — this tee offers unmatched variety for any brand or project.
