FAQs

Are these shirts suitable for printing?

Yes, the fine knit gauge is specifically designed to provide an excellent surface for high-quality screen printing and embroidery.

What is the SpotShield finish?

SpotShield is a specialized treatment applied to the fabric that makes it resistant to water and oil-based stains, allowing spills to bead off the surface.

How many shirts are in a pack?

Each purchase includes a pack of 5 shirts.

What age group is the size 5-6 intended for?

This size is designed to fit children between 5 and 6 years old, following standard sizing conventions for children's apparel.

Can I use these for sports teams?

Absolutely. Their durability and printability make them an excellent choice for team uniforms or recreational sports groups.

How should I wash them to keep them clean?

Wash in cold or lukewarm water with mild detergent. Avoid bleach and heavy fabric softeners to protect the spill-repellent finish.

Troubleshooting

Stains not repelling as expected

Ensure that the shirt has not been treated with heavy fabric softeners, which can coat the fibers and mask the SpotShield technology.

Neckline losing shape

Avoid high-heat tumble drying, which can degrade the self-fabric neck tape and cause the collar to stretch over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Fruit of the Loom Original T-Shirts, adhere to standard laundering practices. Because of the special SpotShield finish, it is recommended to wash with like colors using a mild detergent. Avoid using aggressive fabric softeners, as they can sometimes interfere with the coating's ability to repel spills. When drying, tumble dry on a low setting or air dry to preserve the integrity of the neck tape and the knit structure. These shirts are fully compatible with standard screen printing, heat transfer vinyl, and direct-to-garment (DTG) printing techniques.
