M&O 4800J1 – Gold Soft Touch T-Shirt – Heather Navy

The M&O 4800 is the Gold Soft Touch T-Shirt, a 5 oz smooth 23-singles ring-spun cotton tee that lands a soft retail hand at one of the lowest unit costs in the ring-spun class. It is the value soft tee a shop reaches for when a job needs the printable face and feel of a premium ring-spun blank without the premium price, the default for retail-print programs, boutique brands testing a design, screen-print shops running large soft-hand runs and DTG shops that want a smooth cotton face at a working unit cost. The 23-singles ring-spun yarn lays down a finer, smoother surface than a coarse open-end tee, so fine line work and halftone hold cleaner, and the taped neck and shoulders plus double-needle hems keep the body stable run to run.

The composition is the detail that decides your underbase, because the 4800 is not one substrate across the colour range. Solid colours are 100% pre-shrunk ring-spun cotton, Athletic Gray and the grey heathers are 90/10 cotton/polyester, and the deep heather and safety colours are 50/50 cotton/polyester, so the heathers carry more polyester and more dye-migration risk than the solids. For screen printing, the smooth ring-spun face takes plastisol cleanly and holds detail; print straight on the solid lights, lay a low-bleed white underbase on the dark solids, and step a poly-block up on the 50/50 heather and safety colours since the higher polyester migrates garment dye into the print on a hot cure, so cure at the lower end of the ink range there. For DTG, the soft-touch 100% cotton solids are an ideal substrate that prints bright and crisp with standard pre-treat; the 90/10 greys read close to a solid, while the 50/50 heathers print more muted, so reserve the brightest digital artwork for the cotton solids. For discharge and water-based inks, the 100% cotton solids strip to a soft, no-hand vintage print; the 90/10 greys discharge close to a solid with a wash-test, but the 50/50 heathers only partially strip and muddy, so route those to a poly-block plastisol or DTF. For DTF, a transfer presses consistently across the whole colour card including the heathers. For embroidery, the 5 oz body supports a left-chest design with a cut-away backing. Sublimation does not apply, since this is a cotton body, not a polyester substrate.

The reorder note specific to this style: confirm whether your colourway is a solid 100% cotton, a 90/10 grey or a 50/50 heather before a repeat run, because the underbase, the discharge result and the DTG brightness differ across the three, and the heathers need the heavier poly-block. The smooth 23-singles ring-spun face is the reason a shop standardises on the 4800 for soft-hand retail programs where the print is the product and the budget is tight.
