Built for oversized streetwear.
A 180 GSM washed cotton blank with a wider chest, made for brands and decorators who want vintage character straight off the shelf.
Every shirt is individually acid washed, so no two pieces fade the same way. The body length matches the Comfort Colors 1717 while the chest runs 2 to 2.75 inches wider, giving prints more room across the front without changing the proportion customers expect.
Acid Wash Colors · 11 Vintage Washed Tones
The DigiPrint Acid Wash Tee comes in 11 vintage washed colorways. Each shirt is individually acid washed, so slight differences in fade and tone are part of the style.
Acid Wash Colorways
All 11 acid wash colors are available to order through DTF Dallas in Richardson. Order by 2 PM CST for same-day handling. Because each piece is individually washed, expect slight variation in fade depth and tone within every color.

| Size | Chest (Pit-to-Pit) | Body Length |
|---|---|---|
| S | 21" | 27" |
| M | 23" | 28" |

Measurement note: Chest is measured laid flat from underarm to underarm (pit-to-pit). Measurements are approximate and may vary slightly between production runs, and the acid wash process can add minor size variation. Available S to 2XL.
Acid Wash printing: what works best.
How each major decoration method performs on the Acid Wash Tee. The 180 GSM cotton surface is print-friendly, and the washed finish naturally adds vintage character to graphics. Decoration ratings are DTF Dallas recommendations and may vary by ink, transfer, garment color, and equipment.
DTF (Direct-to-Film)
The 180 GSM cotton surface holds DTF detail well, and the washed finish complements bold, lived-in graphics. For darker washed colors, test one shirt before full production to confirm contrast and adhesion.
Screen Printing
The cotton surface takes screen prints cleanly. Large chest prints and distressed artwork are especially strong matches for the vintage acid wash look.
Embroidery
Minimal left-chest embroidery is a strong match for the acid wash surface. Use a proper backing, since the mid-weight body supports clean stitch-outs.
DTG (Direct-to-Garment)
DTG bonds to the 100% cotton body. Pretreat and test on darker washed colors, since the faded surface can affect how ink reads.
Puff Transfers
Simple puff details are especially strong on the acid wash surface, adding dimension that suits bold and lived-in graphics.
Rhinestone Transfers
Rhinestone decoration bonds to the cotton surface. Pre-press to flatten and remove moisture before applying for a durable hold.
Sizing, wash variation, or print questions? Start here.
The Acid Wash Tee is a 180 GSM oversized cotton blank with a washed finish. Here is how to handle common sizing, print, and consistency questions.
The body length matches the Comfort Colors 1717 at every size, but the chest runs approximately 2 to 2.75 inches wider depending on size, for a relaxed oversized fit.
For a closer chest fit, order one size smaller than the usual CC1717 size. Take the usual size for a relaxed oversized feel, and share the laid-flat chart so buyers can compare measurements.
Acid wash, mineral wash, and stone wash garments naturally vary from piece to piece. Each shirt is individually washed, so fade depth and tone differ slightly.
Treat the variation as part of the vintage style. If consistency matters for a run, order a sample first and set customer expectations that each piece is unique.
Washed and faded garments can respond differently depending on your transfer adhesive, ink system, blocker, curing setup, and heat press calibration, especially on darker colors.
Run a one-shirt test and one wash test before full production, especially on Black, Brown, Indigo, Olive, Purple, and Pink, to confirm contrast and adhesion.
The washed cotton surface can hold residual moisture, which affects how well a DTF transfer or vinyl bonds.
Pre-press 3-5 seconds to flatten and remove moisture before applying DTF or transfers, and follow the transfer manufacturer's recommended settings.
The wider chest at standard body length gives more canvas across the front, but a design scaled for a standard tee can look small on the roomier chest.
Scale chest prints up to use the extra width, and test placement on one shirt per size before a full run.
The vintage acid wash finish naturally complements bold and lived-in graphics, so a crisp corporate logo can clash with the washed aesthetic.
Lean into distressed artwork, retro logos, and bold chest prints that match the vintage look, which is what the surface is built for.
