Made everything perfect and website was super user friendly
Got a great quality shirt without having to wait too long!
Amazing hoodie, was a gift for my son. The logo for his gaming channel was bright and clear, and he's worn it several times already. We will definitely reorder from here for any other custom items. Thank you!
Website was easy to use, we got t-shirts made for our seafood market/fish and chips restaurant for our staff and to sell to our customers, shirts were received within the time frame communicated, happy with the quality of printing, would order again.
The sweaters and tshirts we ordered are perfect! The quality of the material is even better than I was expecting! Everything was easy to order and arrived on time. I will be placing future orders!
We've ordered custom T-shirts with our company logo from T-shirt Elephant several times, and they've always been great to deal with.

Gildan 8800 vs Team 365 TT51: Value vs Performance

- Moisture management: Both wick moisture, but the TT51 also adds antimicrobial and snag-resistant properties
- Price: The 8800 is significantly more affordable, the best value polo for large team orders
- Feel: The 8800's cotton content gives it a softer, more traditional polo feel; the TT51 feels more athletic/technical

Gildan 8800 FAQ
Common questions about the Gildan 8800 DryBlend Jersey Sport Shirt
The Gildan 8800 takes decoration on the front, back (names and numbers), shoulders and sleeves. Numbers and names are applied per player from your roster; crests and sponsors go on the chest, shoulders or sleeves.
Heat-applied names and numbers is the usual choice: each player gets their own; crisp, durable and league-standard. Screen printing suits team crests and sponsor logos on larger orders.
The Gildan 8800 comes in 16 colours in sizes S to 3XL, though not every colour is stocked in every size; the size list on this page shows live stock. A blank Gildan 8800 starts at $11.90; printed pricing is quoted by quantity in the design tool and drops as the order grows.
The Gildan 8800 DryBlend Jersey Sport Shirt is one of the most popular t-shirts for screen printing in Canada. The smooth cotton surface provides excellent ink adhesion, producing sharp, vibrant prints that last wash after wash. It works beautifully with screen printing, DTG, DTF, heat transfer, and vinyl.
The Gildan 5000 (Heavy Cotton) is 5.3 oz with a classic, slightly heavier feel, ideal for screen printing. The Gildan 2000 (Ultra Cotton) is 6.0 oz with an even more substantial weight. Both are 100% cotton. Choose the 5000 for the best balance of printability and comfort, or the 2000 for maximum durability.
The Gildan 8800 DryBlend Jersey Sport Shirt is preshrunk to minimize shrinkage. When following care instructions (machine wash cold, tumble dry low), you can expect minimal to no shrinkage. The fit stays consistent wash after wash.
The Gildan 8800 is available in sizes S through 5XL, offering one of the widest size ranges in the industry. Youth and ladies' fit versions are also available in separate styles.
