Bulk Cotton/Polyester Blend T-Shirts

Cotton feels great. Polyester holds up. Put them together and you get a T-shirt that does a little bit of everything, which is why blends show up everywhere from 5K finish lines to band merch tables. A cotton/poly blend tee keeps the soft, breathable feel people like about cotton while the polyester helps it hold its shape, resist wrinkles and shrink less in the wash. Blends also tend to dry faster, which makes them a solid pick for anything involving sweat, sun or a long day on your feet.

Not all blends are the same, though. A classic 50/50 tee splits the difference evenly and is usually the most budget-friendly option for big events and giveaways. CVC tees, short for “chief value cotton,” lean more heavily toward cotton, so they feel a little softer and work well for direct-to-garment printing while still getting a boost from the polyester. You’ll find both here from brands like Gildan, Hanes, Jerzees, Port & Co, District and Next Level Apparel, in lightweight fashion fits, everyday classics and a few heavier options.

Shop blended short sleeve tees, long sleeve tees, pocket tees, raglan and baseball tees and ringer tees, with sizes for everyone from youth to tall to extended. Whether you’re stocking up for a company picnic or launching your first merch line, there’s a blend here that fits the job and the budget.
