What Our Customers Say
Was a bit hesitant given the one off cost of a custom tshirt (although the price still really isn't unreasonable), but I wasn't disappointed. It is better than I had hoped for. The shirt material quality is exactly what I had wanted (and researched for) with a vintage feel to the material, and the quality of the printed graphics couldn't be better. I'll definitely order more.
Received my shirt and it was exactly as I created it on the website. Turned out so good! The shirt itself is good quality, doesn't feel like it's going to fall apart, comfortable to wear. Design and print held up after washing as well, no cracks or breaking. Still, as with any graphic tee, would suggest washing inside out in cold water and hanging to dry to give it the best chance of success.
Great quality sweater and high quality image printing. A very professional looking sweater. Used this for my children's book world to promote the characters. This was a trial run. Will definitely order more from T-shirt Elephant.
Have ordered twice now, both times were excellent. Lots of apparel to choose from, and good tools to help with designing your own.
Very happy with my shirt! Great quality, can't wait to wear it.
I decided to give T-Shirt Elephant a try because I’m considering using them for a project I’m working on, and I have to say, they exceeded my expectations. What impressed me most was the range of choices. Whether you’re working within a budget or looking for a higher-quality product, there are plenty of options to fit the needs of your project.
The website was easy to use, the ordering process was straightforward, and the quality of the finished product was excellent. Very happy with my experience and I’ll definitely be using them again.
The quality of apparel and print are top notch - the graphics look amazing, will use again for future purchases!
We recently ordered zip-up hoodies for our team of four from T-shirt Elephant, and we couldn't be happier with the experience! The quality of the hoodies is great, and the service was wonderful from start to finish. A special shout-out to Jason, who confirmed our order promptly and went above and beyond to ensure everything arrived on time despite our tight deadline. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This was our second order and the quality is always the best. The team is very reactive and accommodating.
Fantastic. Quality is great. Price is very reasonable. Took 2-3 weeks to get, but I'm in no rush. Website is easy to use. Would definitely recommend over other companies I've attempted to try.
Great quality print company and CANADIAN! Was looking to get two shirts printed fast and they delivered. I even accidentally clicked the wrong shipping option and emailed them asking to pay for upgraded delivery time. They did it at no charge! Very happy I was able to get the shirts in time!
I have had a great experience ordering from T-Shirt Elephant. I ordered custom ball caps. Justin helped me with the colors, he also helped to ensure the order was submitted correctly. My order was shipped to me on the date that I was told it was going to ship and I received it a couple days later. We are grateful for the service and also the quality of the product. We are going to try the apparel next. I highly recommend T-Shirt Elephant, from the customer service support, the excellent variety of products they carry, the ease of use to create the custom ball caps and the delivery of the product.
Highly recommend. Very professional, responsive, and quick turnaround. Lots of selection and even provide design help and tips. Jason and team are great!
I ordered a hoodie with my business logo. It was ready really quick and the colour, quality and fit are great! I'd definitely order more!
Was a little hard to find, however service was good and my apparel looks great. Thank you!
Great shirt quality and very helpful customer service. Highly recommend!
I had a fantastic experience working with Jason and the team here. We needed 350 printed tote bags for a conference on a strict three-day turnaround, and they completely delivered. Jason was incredibly helpful in getting everything set up quickly and provided a very reasonable price. I’m thrilled with the final quality and look of the bags. I will definitely be back for future projects - highly recommend!
great quality and also delivered on time. Jason was helpful and direct, and I appreciate the quality of the sports fabric.
Shirt arrived right on time, great quality and exactly what I ordered. Website very easy to use with lots of options to create your own design.
Great quality and nice to support a Canadian company!
T-Shirt Elephant came through for us! We ordered custom aprons with our logo for an event and were working with a very tight deadline, placing our order just days before we needed them. We were not sure they would arrive in time, but the team at T-Shirt Elephant was responsive and assured us they would be delivered on schedule. They kept their word, and the aprons arrived right on time and looked great. We are very grateful to their team for making it happen and would happily order from them again.
Great transaction.
Very pleased with the t-shirt
Appreciate this Canadian retailer.
Ordering was straightforward with a quick turnaround time. The sweaters ordered are of a good quality. Looking forward to the next one!
Good quality t-shirt and my custom image came out great. Prices are reasonable for a custom 1-off shirt.
Product Description
Gildan SF000 Softstyle Crewneck Sweatshirt — The Softest Custom Crewneck You Can Print On
The Gildan SF000 Softstyle Crewneck Sweatshirt is the premium, softer alternative to the classic Gildan 1801. Made from the same ring spun cotton-rich fleece as the SF500 Softstyle hoodie, it delivers a noticeably smoother, softer hand feel with a modern side-seamed fit — the crewneck that feels like a retail purchase, not a promotional giveaway.
The modern choice for brands and businesses that want their custom crewnecks to impress. Printed in Canada with no minimums, 10-day turnaround, and free shipping on orders over $250.
Fabric & Construction
- Cotton-rich ring spun fleece — significantly softer than standard open-end cotton blends
- 7.5 oz / 254 GSM — midweight fleece with a refined, modern drape
- Ring spun yarn construction — tighter twist produces a smoother surface for sharper prints
- 1x1 rib knit collar, cuffs, and waistband — clean finish that holds shape
- Double-needle stitching throughout for reinforced durability
- Tear-away label for easy rebranding
- Side-seamed construction — modern contoured fit, not tubular
Fit & Sizing
- Modern unisex fit — slightly more tailored than the Gildan 1801, with a contemporary silhouette
- Available in S through 3XL
- Runs true to size with a modern, slightly slimmer fit than Heavy Blend styles
Gildan SF000 Softstyle vs Gildan 1801 Heavy Blend — Which Crewneck?
- Softness: The SF000 is noticeably softer — ring spun construction feels retail-grade vs the 1801's classic fleece feel
- Weight: The SF000 is 7.5 oz (lighter, drapier) vs the 1801's 7.75 oz (slightly heavier, more structured)
- Construction: The SF000 is side-seamed (contoured) vs the 1801's tubular (straight cut) — the SF000 hangs better on the body
- Print surface: The SF000's ring spun surface produces slightly finer print detail
- Colour range: The 1801 has a wider colour selection
- Recommendation: Choose the 1801 for maximum value and colour variety. Choose the SF000 when softness and premium feel matter — retail merch, corporate gifts, and brand apparel.
Best Print Methods for the Gildan SF000
- Screen Printing — the ring spun surface produces sharper, more detailed prints than standard fleece. Full front, full back, and sleeve prints all look exceptional.
- Embroidery — excellent for corporate logos and premium branding. The ring spun fleece provides a smooth, stable base for detailed embroidery.
- DTG (Direct-to-Garment) — outstanding on cotton-rich colours. Photo-quality prints with a soft hand feel that blends into the fabric.
- DTF (Direct-to-Film) — works on all colours with vibrant results.
- Heat Transfer / Vinyl — clean results for names, numbers, and logos.
Popular Uses for Custom Gildan SF000 Crewnecks
- Retail & Merch: Custom crewneck lines, band merchandise, streetwear brands, pop-up shops
- Corporate Premium: Executive gifts, client appreciation, premium employee swag
- Schools: Grad crewnecks, university merchandise, club apparel — the soft feel students love
- Sports & Teams: Team layering, coaching staff, sideline apparel
- Events: Conference swag, charity events, volunteer crew, VIP merch
- Everyday Wear: The crewneck people reach for on weekends
The Gildan Softstyle Fleece Collection
- Gildan SF500 Softstyle Hoodie — same soft ring spun fleece with a hood
