Multiple colors
Matching sets, screen print, embroidery, branded programs

Matching Set Pairings

The CR280 is the crewneck equivalent of the P280 hoodie. Both use the same 8.8 oz 70/30 fleece, so buyers building a brand around one fabric weight can offer hoodies, crewnecks, joggers, and shorts all in the same family. See the Matching Sets page for available coordinating colorways.

Decoration Guidance

The crewneck chest is the primary print location. The flat front panel gives screen printers a clean surface for center-chest prints at standard platens. Embroidery works well on the left chest for smaller logo work. The 70/30 fabric blend accepts plastisol, water-based, and discharge inks cleanly. Heat transfer and DTF work at standard cotton-poly settings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a minimum order quantity for wholesale crewneck sweatshirts?
No. There is no minimum order on standard stock CR280 crewnecks, so you can order a single piece to test fit and decoration before committing to a full program. Sizes and colors can be mixed freely within one order. This applies to standard stock only, custom colors and new custom styles have their own separate minimums.

How fast do wholesale crewneck sweatshirt orders ship?
In-stock paid orders placed by 12pm PT ship the same day. Southern California orders typically arrive in 1 business day, West Coast orders in 1 to 2 business days, Midwest orders in 3 to 4 business days, and East Coast orders in 5 to 6 business days.

Can I order the CR280 crewneck in a custom color or as a fully custom private label style?
Yes. A custom color on the existing CR280 style requires 600 pieces per color. A brand new custom cut and sew style requires 2,400 units. Custom production takes 120 days total, 60 days for production and 60 days for shipping.

Does the CR280 crewneck match the P280 hoodie for a coordinated set, and will colors stay consistent across an order?
Yes. The CR280 and P280 share the same 8.8oz (298 GSM), 70/30 cotton-poly fleece and come in coordinating colorways, so they are designed to sell and wear as a matched set. Three Layer also guarantees same dye lot color matching across the P280, CR280, 8801, and 7770 styles, so colors ordered together stay consistent piece to piece.

How does the CR280 compare to other wholesale crewneck sweatshirts like Bella+Canvas or Comfort Colors?
The CR280 runs heavier and more cotton-forward than most retail-style crewnecks at 8.8oz (298 GSM), 70/30 cotton-poly fleece. Bella+Canvas 3901 is a lighter 8.0oz raglan-sleeve crew at 52/48 cotton-poly, with GSM not manufacturer-stated so 271 is shown as a converted figure. Comfort Colors 1566 runs heavier at 9.5oz (322 GSM, converted) in an 80/20 ring-spun blend with a garment-dyed, relaxed fit, unlike the CR280’s set-in sleeve construction. See the full breakdown, including Gildan 18000 and ITC SS3000, in the Blank Crewneck Brand Comparison guide at /guides/blank-crewneck-brand-comparison/.

What decoration methods work best on the CR280 crewneck?
Screen printing is the primary use case. The flat center-chest panel gives a clean surface for standard platens, and the 70/30 blend accepts plastisol, water-based, and discharge inks cleanly. Embroidery works well on the left chest for smaller logos, and heat transfer or DTF runs at standard cotton-poly press settings. Sublimation gives a muted, vintage-style effect on this 70/30 blend rather than full vibrancy, since full sublimation brightness needs 100 percent polyester, which Three Layer does not stock.

What are the fabric weight and composition of the CR280 crewneck?
The CR280 is 8.8 oz and 298 GSM, made from 70/30 cotton-poly fleece. It is a midweight style at 8.8 oz.
