Gildan is traditionally associated with the wholesale of plain tees to companies which decorate them with logos or designs for sale to consumers. A lot of the souvenir tees tourists take home from other countries are probably Gildan shirts. The brand is also extremely popular in the imprinted sportswear market. Recently however, the company has begun to serve its clientele on a retail basis, giving even more people access to comfortable, high quality t-shirts, as well as bringing the plain t-shirt back as a fashion staple.
Aside from its reputation as the maker of the best-selling t-shirts in the world, Gildan is proud of its corporate citizenship. The company recognizes the importance not only of correct labor practices, but of social consciousness as well. It is currently working with several Canadian NGOs on various programs aimed to help different sectors, such as the displaced and the homeless. Gildan is also the lead corporate sponsor of the Central American Polytechnic Institute (IPC), the first technical institute in Central America created to train people who want to specialize in the textile and apparel industries. The company is ISO certified, and is a member of the Worldwide Responsible Apparel Production (WRAP), an organization dedicated to propagating and maintaining lawful, humane and ethical manufacturing practices worldwide.
Gildan's shirts are made from 100% U.S. cotton. It is one of the few brands that can claim so, as other tees are made from cotton blends or cotton that didn't come from the States. The shirts have seamless sides, for extra comfort. Gildan also has an impressive array of colors to match every mood, as well as sizes for men, women and children. The shirts are not prone to shrinkage, warping or bleeding. They're comfortable, and more importantly, affordable, too.
Gildan also accepts bulk orders for printing purposes.
