The Gildan GD56 Heavy Blend™ Sweatshirt is a soft, durable crew-neck sweatshirt available plain or personalised with your own image.

Sizes range from S to 2XL.
How do I personalise this sweatshirt?
Upload your image on this product page and select the print placement. Your image can be applied using DTF (direct-to-film) printing, and a design preview will be sent to you by email before printing. You can also choose a plain sweatshirt without personalisation and select your preferred colour and size.
What fabric is the sweatshirt made from?
The sweatshirt is made from 50% cotton and 50% polyester. Coloured fabric weighs 280gsm, while white fabric weighs 270gsm. Its air-jet yarn construction provides a smoother, softer feel while helping to reduce pilling. The clean front and back surfaces provide an excellent base for personalised DTF printing, and the garment is suitable for printing and embroidery.
