What Our Customers Say
Great experience fast and efficient.
Great product! The quality was amazing, and there was a lot of creativity in creating the apparel.
First time buying a custom item from T-Shirt Elephant. Not only was the t-shirt quality and customization quality top notch, but also the site was easy to navigate and the customization feature was very user friendly. I am 100% going to be making more of my work shirts and sweaters through T-Shirt Elephant going forward!
The t-shirts turned out great! Quality material and the print looks just like the design.
My T-shirts arrived on time, look great and are of great quality. Their website is also really easy to use. I give them 5 stars and can easily recommend them.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I recently ordered some custom apparel for my business, PhenX Stucco & Siding. We had a few issues with the hoodies and getting everything exactly how I wanted it, but the team at T-Shirt Elephant was great to deal with.
They were patient, professional, and willing to work with me to make things right. They took the time to respond to my concerns and made sure I was looked after.
Customer service goes a long way, especially when you're running your own business. I really appreciate the effort they put in.
Thanks again to the team at T-Shirt Elephant!
Quality is great, they came fast and customer service is excellent.
Wow, blown away by the results and the customer service.
I ordered one shirt with a specific design and it turned out better then expected. Price and quality of shirt was also excellent.
This was my first order. I LOVE my new Tshirts!! Thank you for offering different colours too! These are so comfy and I will be placing another order soon!
We recently placed an order for custom event shirts and, unfortunately, there was a printing issue with our logo. After bringing it to their attention, the team took accountability and worked with us to make things right.
They arranged to have the shirts reprinted and expedited the order to ensure we received everything in time for our event.
Mistakes can happen, but what really matters is how a company handles them. We truly appreciate their willingness to correct the issue, their professionalism, and the effort they made to meet our deadline.
Thank you to the team at T-Shirt Elephant for making things right. Great customer service!
Very good experience.... from the flexible , intuitive shirt design system to the quality of the end product. Top quality cotton shirt.
I really enjoy T-shirt elephant. A Canadian company, the way to make a T-shirt is very easy to do and they have great selections of shirts
Easy experience good quality shirts and shipping exactly as advertised. Thanks.
Five stars. The ordering process was very easy, but the real reason for my rating is how they handled an issue with my order. It arrived slightly late, and while I was understandably upset, their team stepped up. They returned my call, remained professional and calm, and made things right. Mistakes can happen—it’s how a company responds that matters. I really appreciate how they handled the situation and will definitely order from them again.
Great print shop locally in Canada! The website designer was easy to use, prices are good. T-shirts and stickers are great quality. Shipping was fast and customer service was helpful. Highly recommend!
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.

Gildan 200B vs Gildan 500B — Which Youth Tee?
- Weight: The 200B is 6.0 oz (heaviest) vs the 500B's 5.3 oz — noticeably thicker

- Durability: The extra weight gives the 200B an edge for rough-and-tumble kids
- Colour range: The 500B has more colour options
- Recommendation: Choose the 500B for the widest colour selection and best value. Choose the 200B when you want the thickest, most durable youth tee available — especially for workwear-style applications and premium prints.

Gildan 200B FAQ
Common questions about the Gildan 200B YOUTH Ultra Cotton T-Shirt
The Gildan 200B takes decoration on the full front, full back, left chest and sleeves. Full-front prints up to about 12 by 14 inches; sleeve prints run around 3 by 3 inches.
Screen printing is the usual choice: the best value from a dozen pieces up, in one to eight colours. DTF transfer suits full-colour, photo-quality prints on light or dark shirts, in any quantity, even one shirt.
The Gildan 200B comes in 29 colours in sizes XS to XL, though not every colour is stocked in every size; the size list on this page shows live stock. A blank Gildan 200B starts at $4.95; printed pricing is quoted by quantity in the design tool and drops as the order grows.
The Gildan 200B YOUTH Ultra Cotton T-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 200B YOUTH Ultra Cotton T-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 200B 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.
