Mike Apparel is a custom t-shirt manufacturer in Sialkot making oversized, heavyweight, boxy, washed, garment-dyed and graphic tees for streetwear brands, from a 50-piece MOQ per design, in 2–3 weeks, with your labels sewn in and DDP delivery to the USA.
A t-shirt is the product buyers use to judge a brand, and the one where a wholesale blank gives you nothing to judge with. We cut and sew tees from 180 to 400 GSM combed cotton jersey on our own streetwear blocks or your pattern, print and embroider in-house, wash and dye on the finished garment, and ship with your neck label, hang tag and packaging. Every t-shirt type below has its own page with fabrics, fits, construction and ordering details. For the fabric decision, read the t-shirt GSM guide; for pricing, how much a t-shirt costs to manufacture.

Custom blank t-shirtGarment Dyed T-Shirt
We manufacture garment dyed t-shirts by sewing the tee in PFD (prepared for dye) fabric and dyeing the finished garment in pigment or reactive dyes.
Custom garment dyed t-shirtFabrics and weights
Our tee jersey ranges from 180 GSM for lightweight merch to 400 GSM for ultra-heavy statement pieces. The streetwear centre of gravity is 240–300 GSM combed ringspun cotton, compacted and pre-shrunk so prints do not distort and the collar does not roll. Slub, interlock, cotton-modal, cotton-poly and organic cotton are stocked; PFD (prepared-for-dye) versions of the main weights are held for garment dye and vintage wash programmes. Custom colours are dyed to Pantone TCX with lab dips from 100 pieces per shade; stock colours run at 50.
Fits and blocks
Oversized, boxy, drop-shoulder, regular, slim, cropped and longline blocks are on file, graded to US sizing. Each block sets shoulder drop, chest width, body length and sleeve opening as a system, so an oversized XL and an oversized S share one silhouette. Send a reference tee and we build the block from it; the pre-production sample confirms it on a body before bulk. Women’s and unisex crop blocks are graded separately.
Decoration and finishing
Screen printing up to 14 colours with water-based, plastisol, discharge, puff, high-density, foil and glow inks; DTG for photographic artwork; DTF for multi-placement graphics; flat, 3D and chenille embroidery. Because we print on cut panels, graphics can cross seams and wrap the body, which is impossible on pre-made blanks. Washes include enzyme, silicone, acid, vintage, sun-fade and garment dye, all applied to the finished tee. See screen printing vs DTG vs embroidery for how to choose.
Private label
Woven or printed neck labels, size tabs, care labels, hem loops, hang tags, poly bags and boxes are produced in-house from your artwork and applied on the line. Tagless printed necks are available on all jersey weights. Nothing on the finished tee identifies Mike Apparel. Details on private label clothing manufacturing.
Ordering and quantities
Every tee style here starts at 50 pieces per design and colourway, sizes mixed however you like. GSM, wash and decoration are what move the per-piece cost, and ordering more brings that cost down since the run is quoted as one job rather than several small ones. Reorders on an approved block skip the sample stage entirely. See MOQ and lead times for how MOQ and lead time work, and get in touch for a full itemised quote on your spec.
