About the Gildan 64000BCVC
The Gildan 64000BCVC Youth Softstyle CVC Tee is the youth-sized version of Gildan's Softstyle CVC family, a 4.6-ounce 60/40 ring-spun cotton/polyester construction in a 30-singles yarn. CVC stands for Chief Value Cotton, an industry term for a cotton-majority blend that costs less than 100% cotton while delivering most of the soft hand and printability cotton-heavy buyers expect. For school programs, youth sports teams, summer camps, and spirit wear orders, the 64000BCVC sits in a useful middle slot: softer and more retail-quality than basic Heavy Cotton, more affordable than premium 100% ring-spun youth tees.
The polyester portion of the blend changes the hand and the look in ways that matter for buyers planning the program. Polyester gives the fabric a drapey, soft hand that falls more like a fashion tee than a basic blank, and it produces a subtle heather texture on every color except Pitch Black and White. That texture is intentional, and it's the visual cue that distinguishes a CVC tee from its 100% cotton siblings on the same color palette. For programs that want a slightly more elevated look without stepping up to a premium fabric tier, the heather effect alone often justifies the choice over plain cotton.
Construction details are matched across the Softstyle line. The high stitch density fabric gives a smoother surface for screen printing, DTG, DTF, and embroidery than coarser youth tees, the modern classic fit sits a hair closer to the body than a traditional unisex cut, and the narrow-width rib collar keeps the neckline trim. Taped neck and shoulders add durability where the seams take the most stress, and every 64000BCVC ships with a CPSIA tracking label that keeps youth-program buyers in compliance with consumer product safety reporting requirements without any extra paperwork.
Available in XS through XL in a color range that's heavy on the heather-textured tones the CVC blend is built around. For the standard youth Softstyle in 100% ring-spun cotton without the polyester blend or heather texture, the Gildan 64000B Youth Softstyle is the matching solid-color option. For a heavier youth tee in 100% cotton, the Gildan 5000B Youth Heavy Cotton at 5.3 ounces is the budget workhorse. For a lighter youth tee in the standard Light Cotton family, the Gildan 3000B Youth Light Cotton at 4.45 ounces covers the lightweight end of the youth category.
FAQ
What does CVC mean?
CVC stands for Chief Value Cotton, an industry term for a cotton-majority blend (typically 60/40 cotton/polyester) that delivers most of the hand feel and printability of 100% cotton at a lower per-unit cost. The polyester portion of the blend produces a softer, drapier hand and creates a subtle heather texture across most colors. CVC is a popular middle-tier choice for buyers who want a more retail-quality look than basic cotton without paying for a premium 100% ring-spun fabric.
How is the 64000BCVC different from the 64000B Youth Softstyle?
Both are 30-singles ring-spun youth tees from the Gildan Softstyle family, but the fabric and the look are different. The 64000B is 100% ring-spun cotton at 4.5 ounces in solid colors; the 64000BCVC is 60/40 ring-spun cotton/polyester at 4.6 ounces with a subtle heather texture across most colors. For programs that want a clean solid-color look or are restricted to cotton-only, the 64000B is the right pick. For programs that want a softer, drapier hand and a fashion-forward heather texture, the 64000BCVC is the right pick.
What is CPSIA tracking label compliance?
CPSIA is the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act, which requires permanent tracking labels on children's apparel sold in the U.S. The 64000BCVC's tracking label includes the manufacturer information, production location, and date code that CPSIA requires, so youth-program buyers don't need to add separate compliance documentation when ordering for schools, camps, or other regulated channels.
Is the 64000BCVC good for screen printing?
Yes. The high stitch density Softstyle fabric holds plastisol and water-based screen inks cleanly, and the 30-singles yarn produces sharper print edges than a coarser-yarn youth tee. For dark prints on heather colors, use a low-bleed plastisol or a poly-friendly underbase to prevent dye migration from the polyester portion of the blend; standard plastisol techniques work cleanly on Pitch Black and White (the two non-heather colors).
What sizes are available?
Sizes XS through XL. Body length runs 18 inches (XS) through 25 inches (XL); chest width runs 14 inches (XS) through 19 inches (XL), measured laid flat with a +/-1 inch tolerance.
