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
• Opacity: The 200B's heavier fabric provides better coverage — no show-through on white and light colours
• 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.

Best Print Methods for the Gildan 200B

• Screen Printing — outstanding results. The heavyweight cotton surface produces bold, vibrant prints. The extra fabric weight handles multi-colour prints without warping.
• DTG (Direct-to-Garment) — excellent on 100% cotton colours. Photo-quality prints for personalized designs and individual names.
• DTF (Direct-to-Film) — works on all colours with vibrant results.
• Heat Transfer / Vinyl — ideal for names, numbers, and personalized kids' shirts.

Popular Uses for Custom Gildan 200B Youth T-Shirts
