University of Hard Knocks: Veteran Shirt | Military T-shirt | Veteran Brotherhood

The difference between schools and life: Schools teach you the lessons and then gives you a test. With the University of Hard Knocks, you take the test first and then learn the lessons later.

Using Direct-to-garment printing, or DTG printing, is a method that sprays ink onto garments and is similar to printing on paper. Made from 100% cotton sourced in the US, the Gildan 5000 t-shirt has a soft hand feel with natural stretch. Gildan Heavy Cotton® is pre-shrunk to resist shrinkage and hold its shape wash after wash and offers a slightly lighter feel than Gildan Ultra Cotton®. Cut with a classic fit, it features a crew neck, short sleeves and seamless design for freedom of movement.

To maintain the quality and appearance of your T-shirt, follow these washing tips:

* Wash inside out: This helps protect the outer surface from friction and prevents pilling and fading of prints or colors.

* Use cold water: Cold water washing preserves fabric integrity and helps prevent shrinking and color bleeding.

* Choose mild detergents: Opt for mild, color-safe detergents to maintain fabric softness and color vibrancy.

* Wash with similar colors: Separate dark, light, and white shirts to avoid color transfer and maintain the original hue.

* Air dry: Whenever possible, air drying is the gentlest method to preserve the fabric and prevent shrinkage.

* Use low heat settings: If using a dryer, select a low heat or delicate setting to reduce the risk of fabric damage and shrinking.

* Avoid excessive heat: High temperatures can weaken fibers and fade colors.
