District DM130 contract screen printing
Triblend heathers and frosts that make a new shirt read like a favorite old one. We run it weekly with a low-cure ink and a controlled underbase, so the soft look does not turn into a faded print.
- 4.5 oz, 50/25/25 polyester / combed ring-spun cotton / rayon, 32 singles
- 51 colors, most of them heathers and frosts you cannot get in a standard tee
- Soft drape with that faded, broken-in print look
- Blind shipped under your label, blanks yours or ours
Real numbers back the same business day, not a range.

How the DM130 behaves under ink
The part most contract shops leave out of the quote.
Needs a poly-blocking underbase
Half this shirt is polyester, and that dye migrates into ink at cure temperature. Every DM130 job here runs a blocking underbase and a controlled cure, the difference between a print that stays true and one that discolors in two weeks.
Ink sink is part of the look
The rayon and heather yarn structure let ink settle between fibers, so prints come out slightly soft and faded rather than bright and plasticky. On a triblend, that is the point. If you want maximum pop instead, we will tell you to pick a different blank.
We verify construction per color
Because some colors ship tubular and some side-seamed, we check every color at receiving and adjust load and placement so a multi-color order still matches piece to piece.
DM130 questions from resellers
What is the minimum order on DM130 shirts?
24 pieces, with no setup fees. You can mix colors and sizes inside that 24 as long as the printed design is the same.
Why do prints look softer on a triblend?
The polyester and rayon in the fabric let ink settle in rather than sit on top, so prints come out with a slightly faded, vintage character. That is the triblend look and most customers order it on purpose. If you want maximum-brightness ink, a 100% cotton blank like the Next Level 3600 is the better pick.
Will the colors bleed into my print?
Not from our press. Fifty percent polyester means dye migration is a real risk, so we run a poly-blocking underbase and controlled cure on every DM130 job.
What is the deal with tubular vs side-seamed?
SanMar produces some DM130 colors both ways, sometimes within one order. Different construction means slightly different drape and print placement, so we check each color at receiving and adjust. It is a real production detail most shops ignore.
Is it see-through?
It is a light 4.5 oz fabric with drape, not a beefy tee, lighter colors are semi-sheer by design, like every fashion triblend. Darker colorways read solid.
Does it shrink?
Very little, half the fabric is polyester, which keeps it dimensionally stable. Wash cold, dry low.
Do I ship blanks in, or do you source them?
Either one. We are a SanMar PSST decorator, so you can order on your own account and have blanks ship freight-free with no minimum to our dock. If you would rather not carry the blanks, we source and bill them through.
Will the order ship blind under my label?
Yes. Your packing slip, your label, nothing of ours in the box. We can drop ship to your client or straight to their end customer.
