What should I know about the Men’s Classic T-Shirt | Gildan 2000 discontinuation?

Starting September 28, we’re gradually discontinuing The Men’s Classic T-Shirt | Gildan 2000, and it’s no longer available in our Product Catalog. To not lose any sales, we suggest all Gildan 2000 sellers remove the product from your stores and add its alternative Men’s Classic Tee | Gildan 5000 instead.

Why are we discontinuing the Gildan 2000?

The Gildan 5000 t-shirt has the same qualities and look as the Gildan 2000, but it comes in more colors and at a lower base price. This is why we’ve made the decision to stop offering the Gildan 2000 in our catalog.

How can I switch products?

1. In your Printful Dashboard, go to the Stores section and select a store that has a Men’s Classic T-Shirt | Gildan 2000 listing.
2. You’ll see a banner on top of the page showing all your Gildan 2000 products. Copy each name, add it to the search bar, and then follow the steps below for each listing.
3. Click on the three dots on the right side of the product.
4. In the dropdown, select Delete.
5. Open the Men’s Classic Tee | Gildan 5000 and select Add to store.
6. Add one of your existing designs or create a new one.
7. Add the finished product to your store.

What will happen if I don’t remove my Gildan 2000 listing?

Until the end of this year, we’ll automatically fulfill Gildan 2000 orders with Gildan 5000 t-shirts, charging the Gildan 5000 price. Next year, the product will be completely discontinued, and all its orders will fail. As this change is gradual, some customers might still receive Gildan 2000 shirts until October 12, while others will already get Gildan 5000 t-shirts.

Why should I switch to another product if my orders will be replaced with the Gildan 5000?

Most of the Gildan 2000 orders will be automatically fulfilled with Gildan 5000 t-shirts, but we can’t replace t-shirts in colors Forest, Blue Dusk, Light Pink, Daisy, Olive, and Sapphire because they don’t have an exact color match with Gildan 5000. If you sell products in any of these colors, your orders won’t be fulfilled. However, there are multiple similar Gildan 5000 shades you can switch to manually. View this table to see all color matches and alternatives.

We also can’t change the product information on your store. To have the correct product descriptions and mockups, we strongly suggest removing all your Gildan 2000 listings and switching to Gildan 5000.

Is this discontinuation affecting all regions?

The automatic product swap to Gildan 5000 is happening in all regions except Brazil and Japan, where the Gildan 2000 t-shirt is simply discontinued and not replaced. If you sell this product to customers in Brazil, you can switch to the alternative Unisex Basic Softstyle T-Shirt | Gildan 64000. Similarly, you can switch to the locally manufactured Unisex Short Sleeve Tee | Printstar 00085-CVT for customers in Japan.

What should I do if I don’t want my orders to be replaced with the Gildan 5000?

If you don’t want us to keep fulfilling your orders with Gildan 5000 shirts after the Gildan 2000 has been discontinued, please reach out to our customer support team. Please note that, in this case, your customers won’t be able to order the Gildan 2000 product once it’s discontinued.
