Description
The Comfort Colors 1717 is a heavyweight, garment-dyed T-shirt made with 6.1 oz./yd² ring-spun cotton and a relaxed fit. It is a different starting point from a lighter fitted tee: compare the fabric weight, garment measurements and actual shade when choosing blanks for a group or print run. The garment-dye finish is part of the style, so a physical sample is especially useful when color matching matters.
Features
- 6.1 oz./yd² (US), 10 oz./L yd (CA); 100% ring-spun cotton, 20 singles.
- Garment-dyed finish; the supplier describes minimal shrinkage, not a no-shrink guarantee.
- Relaxed fit with a topstitched, classic-width rib collar.
- Shoulder-to-shoulder twill tape and signature twill label.
- Pigment-dyed shades can vary; some colors are reactive dyed, and selected colors are transitioning between dye processes.
Buying questions
Is this an oversized T-shirt?
The published fit is relaxed. Use the garment measurements to choose the silhouette you want rather than treating “relaxed” as a guarantee of an oversized fit. Compare a tee you already like, laid flat.
How should I choose a color for matching shirts?
Use the current color selector for available choices instead of relying on a fixed color count. When matching an existing garment or coordinating different styles, compare physical samples and approve the intended shade before production.

Choosing Burnt Orange garment-dyed tees
- Use the exact color name: Burnt Orange is a distinct 1717 catalog shade. Compare its own photos rather than substituting an Orange shade from another product or brand.
- Garment-dyed appearance: The 1717 uses 6.1 oz./yd² ring-spun cotton with a relaxed fit. Shade variation is inherent in the pigment-dye process; inspect physical samples when coordinating a group or matching an earlier order.
- Plan sizing and artwork together: Compare the size chart with a tee you like laid flat. Have your decorator test the intended print process on the actual garment-dyed shade before approving a larger run.

Excellent t-shirts, I highly recommend them 100%.

I absolutely adore these t-shirts! I’ve purchased my music merchandise from Bear Imprint on two occasions. The first order featured embroidery, while the second had printing. Both times, I received my items quickly, with excellent communication regarding any changes, and the quality of the t-shirts and prints is outstanding!
The colors of the comfort color t-shirts are fantastic. The service was also commendable. The embroidery process took a bit longer, approximately a month from order to delivery, but the printing process was much quicker, taking less than two weeks! Thanks, everyone.

I experienced a few problems, and they contacted me as quickly as possible. They called and texted me to assist. No other company has ever done that before! I would certainly purchase from them again solely based on my experience with Gabe! He is very patient, and if you encounter an issue, don’t hesitate to contact them as they are very kind!
