What if you don\u2019t select the right size for your group? What if the garment doesn\u2019t feel how you expect? What if the color doesn\u2019t match what you see on the site?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s even more difficult when you\u2019re faced with a dozen nearly identical products from different brands. For example, the most well-known brand of garment-dyed garments is Comfort Colors, which has been a major player since 1995. But today, there are countless alternatives from brands like Hanes, Port &amp; Co., and Cotton Heritage.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So which one should you choose?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re asking these questions, you\u2019re not alone. We\u2019ve heard them from customers placing custom screen-printed and embroidered orders for the last 30 years!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At BlueCotton, we\u2019re on a mission to help you feel confident in your selection before you place your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/uncategorized\/why-bluecotton-is-perfect-for-groups-order-together-ship-seperately\/\">custom order<\/a>. So today, we\u2019re providing a full rundown of our top garment-dyed brands so you can make the best choice for your group.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Is a Garment-Dyed Shirt?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You might be familiar with \u201cpiece-dyed\u201d shirts, which is where rolls of fabric are colored <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">before <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">actually constructing the garment, which helps with cost and provides a more uniform color across all garments. So this is what you\u2019ll want when you\u2019re aiming for those true red, royal, or green colors. Think sports team colors!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Garment-dyed shirts, on the other hand, are assembled as a complete garment in their natural color (often white). Only then is the shirt actually dyed, which ends up creating some variation in the look of the stitching and seams. As a result, the full run doesn\u2019t come out perfectly uniform \u2014 but that\u2019s part of the appeal. These variations end up creating a sort of vintage, worn-in look and feel. It also means that the color isn\u2019t as vibrant or true in color as piece-dyed garments.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Note that you\u2019ll often hear the term \u201cpigment-dyed\u201d when talking about garment-dyed shirts. Pigment dyeing is one of the most common methods used in garment dyeing, which is why the terms are often used interchangeably.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At a Glance<\/span><\/h2>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Feature<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Comfort Colors 1717<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Port &amp; Co Beach Wash PC099<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>ComfortWash by Hanes GDH100<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Cotton Heritage OU1690<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Fabric Weight<\/b><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Heavyweight<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lightweight<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Midweight<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mid-lightweight<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Overall Feel<\/b><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Soft, broken-in<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Soft, lightweight<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Soft, smooth<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Soft, premium<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Look &amp; Aesthetic<\/b><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cozy, classic, lived-in<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Washed, beachy, relaxed<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clean, traditional<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Modern, retail<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Fit Style<\/b><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Size up one size<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Traditional \/ True-to-size<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Traditional \/ true-to-size<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Modern, slightly fitted<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Unisex Appeal<\/b><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Excellent<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Very good<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Excellent<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Better for fashion-forward audiences<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Vintage Wash Level<\/b><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Strongest<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moderate<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moderate<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Light-to-moderate<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Durability<\/b><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Very high<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moderate<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">High<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">High<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Printing Results<\/b><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bold, long-lasting<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Soft, tonal look<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clean, crisp<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Retail-quality finish<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Why Customers Choose It<\/b><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Comfort + longevity<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instant softness<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Polished consistency<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stylish silhouette<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We tested these shirts with two models as well as an internal review.

These styles carry a more tailored, finished look and can range from women\u2019s styles to more slim retail fits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tubular T-shirts are made by slicing into a tube of fabric (which becomes the body of the garment), and then sleeves are sewn on. This reduces the amount of time needed to construct the garment, making this process less expensive for the manufacturer. However, it creates a one-size-fits-all type of garment, usually with a boxy fit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re not sure which style you prefer, look through your T-shirt drawer for some of your favorite styles to see whether they\u2019re made with side seams.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/brands\/port-company\/pigment-dyed-tee-pc099\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Port &amp; Co PC099<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/brands\/port-company\/pigment-dyed-tee-pc099\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-8070 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/PC099-Front-White.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"539\" height=\"673\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/PC099-Front-White.webp 871w, https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/PC099-Front-White-240x300.webp 240w, https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/PC099-Front-White-820x1024.webp 820w, https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/PC099-Front-White-768x959.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/PC099-Front-White-300x375.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/PC099-Front-White-850x1062.webp 850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 539px) 100vw, 539px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>Color Options:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The PC099 Beach Wash Tee is available in 43 unisex color options, including 20 youth colors.

Both of our models commented on the soft hand-feel of the garment, which seems atypical of most vintage-style brands. To the eye, this style has the smoothest surface, which will enhance the quality of your screen-printed design.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Fit: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our models felt that this option was the most true-to-size fit. Max (5\u20195\u201d, male) chose the small in this style with plenty of room in the shoulders and chest. Maddie (5\u20199\u201d, female) stuck with the medium but noted it had more room. Note that the collar on this shirt is wider than the rest of the styles.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/brands\/comfortwash-by-hanes\/garment-dyed-t-shirt-gdh100\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hanes ComfortWash GDH100<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/brands\/comfortwash-by-hanes\/garment-dyed-t-shirt-gdh100\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-8071 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/GDH100-Front-Artisan_Gold.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"553\" height=\"690\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/GDH100-Front-Artisan_Gold.webp 871w, https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/GDH100-Front-Artisan_Gold-240x300.webp 240w, https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/GDH100-Front-Artisan_Gold-820x1024.webp 820w, https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/GDH100-Front-Artisan_Gold-768x959.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/GDH100-Front-Artisan_Gold-300x375.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/GDH100-Front-Artisan_Gold-850x1062.webp 850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 553px) 100vw, 553px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>Color Options:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The Hanes ComfortWash GDH100 is the newest kid on the garment-dyed block!

They noted that the sleeves were longer, and the fabric felt more textured, which is generally what you\u2019d want for this style.

This garment stands out as the most finished with a side seam construction.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Fit:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Like the Port &amp; Co and ComfortWash, this style fits true to size with good room in the sleeves, chest, and torso. The collar is comparable to Comfort Colors in shape and thickness. \u00a0 This shirt is more of a retail fit and tapers down, so if you like more room to make it boxy or want to wear it with leggings, we suggest sizing up to get a good flow through the bottom of the tee.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/brands\/comfort-colors\/pigment-dyed-short-sleeve-shirt-cc1717\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Comfort Colors 1717<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/brands\/comfort-colors\/pigment-dyed-short-sleeve-shirt-cc1717\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-8072 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/CC1717-Front-Bay-1.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"525\" height=\"655\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/CC1717-Front-Bay-1.webp 871w, https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/CC1717-Front-Bay-1-240x300.webp 240w, https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/CC1717-Front-Bay-1-820x1024.webp 820w, https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/CC1717-Front-Bay-1-768x959.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/CC1717-Front-Bay-1-300x375.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.bluecotton.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/CC1717-Front-Bay-1-850x1062.webp 850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>Color Options: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The OG of pigment-dyed apparel, the 1717 Unisex Heavy-Weight T-shirt comes in 67 colors, including 30 in youth styles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Weight, Feel &amp; Construction: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At 6.1 ounces per square yard, this tubular style falls into the heavyweight category, making it slightly denser than its counterparts. This means that it will have a substantial feel to the touch as a more durable fabric that\u2019s meant for long-term use.\u00a0 Of the four styles offered by BlueCotton, this has the most textured look, but the feel is still soft and similar to the others.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Fit: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of the four pigment-dyed styles, this was the shortest and smallest fit, so size up by one to make it more true to size. For example, with broad shoulders, Max found the small to be very fitted across the shoulders, so he chose the medium for more room. Maddie has a long torso, so while she could wear a small, the length of the medium worked out better here. Note that the sleeves here are significantly shorter than all other styles.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Picking the Best Garment-Dyed Shirts for Custom Apparel<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, which one is best for your order?
