Gildan · Style 5V00L V-Neck

A women's heavy cotton V-neck tee.

The 5V00L is the V-neck member of the Gildan Heavy Cotton family. 5.3 oz US cotton in most colors in a semi-fitted, side seamed cut with cap sleeves, S to 3XL. It shares the same fabric weight, body measurements, semi-fitted construction, side seams, and cap sleeves as the crew neck 5000L, with a neckline that reads as a deliberate retail choice.

01The Palette

What colors does the 5V00L come in?

DTF Jersey stocks the Gildan 5V00L in nine colors. Alongside the core neutrals the range leans brighter than the unisex Heavy Cotton blanks, with Azalea, Heliconia, and Coral Silk giving women's programs more palette to work with. Fiber content changes with the color family, so check the note below before you press.

02Why It Earns More

The same blank, with a better neckline.

A crew neck blank is the default, and it looks like one. The 5V00L shares the same 5.3 oz fabric weight, semi-fitted construction, side seams, and cap sleeves as the crew neck 5000L, but the V-neckline signals a deliberate choice rather than whatever was cheapest. For boutique brands, event merch, and women's programs, that read lifts the finished product without adding cost.

03Fabric & Fit

Heavy cotton, with a V-neck.

At 5.3 oz the 5V00L carries the same Heavy Cotton weight as the rest of the family. The cotton is spun to 20 singles for a sturdy, durable hand that stands up to repeated washing, giving DTF transfers and screen prints a solid, even base.

The cut is semi-fitted with a side seamed body and cap sleeves, shaped for women's proportions without being tight. A narrow width V-neck rib collar with taped neck and shoulders, plus a tear-away label for clean rebranding.

Solid cotton colors press the same, but Sport Grey carries polyester and can behave differently under heat. Test settings on the exact blend color before a full run and always confirm settings for your specific transfer. The semi-fitted cut is narrower than a unisex blank and the V-neckline lowers the top of the print area, so drop artwork and check placement against the smaller sizes. More help in the DTF Jersey FAQs.

05Printing & Care

DTF printing and care for the 5V00L.

The Heavy Cotton face of the Gildan 5V00L is well suited to DTF (direct-to-film) transfers. A finished DTF transfer is applied with a heat press, and the sturdy cotton surface gives the ink a solid, even base to bond to. The V-neckline lowers the top of the usable chest area, so drop artwork accordingly.

DTF transfer printing

Applying DTF transfers to the 5V00L

General pressing guidance for a clean, durable bond on heavy cotton:

  • 1Use a flat heat press for even, consistent pressure across the whole design.
  • 2Follow the temperature, time, and pressure recommended by your transfer supplier, since settings vary by film and adhesive.
  • 3Pre-press the shirt briefly to remove moisture and flatten wrinkles before applying the transfer.
  • 4Peel the carrier film as directed for your specific transfer, hot or cold peel.
  • 5Check artwork placement against the V-neckline and the smaller sizes, since the semi-fitted body is narrower than a unisex blank and the V lowers the top of the print area. Test Sport Grey first, since the polyester content can behave differently under heat.

Handheld presses can work for small one-off designs, but a dedicated flat heat press is recommended for bulk and full-size prints where even pressure matters. Always confirm exact settings with your DTF transfer supplier or the DTF Jersey FAQs.

Care & washing

Keeping a printed 5V00L looking right

To help a DTF-printed Gildan 5V00L hold up over time, general care guidance is:

  • Wait at least 24 hours after pressing before the first wash.
  • Turn the shirt inside out before washing to protect the print surface.
  • Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle to protect both the print and the heavy cotton fabric.
  • Tumble dry low or hang to dry, and avoid high heat on the printed area.
  • Do not iron directly over a transfer.

The Gildan 5V00L holds its shape through repeated wear and wash, which keeps sizing consistent across reorders and women's programs. Follow the care label and your transfer supplier guidance for best results.

Measuring: Approximate laid-flat dimensions (chest width is half the full chest). Length runs from the highest shoulder point to the hem, and sleeve is measured from the center of the neck down. Fit: The Gildan 5V00L runs semi-fitted with a side seamed body and cap sleeves, shaped for women's proportions. Sizes run S to 3XL. It shares the same body dimensions as the crew neck Gildan 5000L, so programs running both necklines can size them the same way. Availability by size can vary by stock level.

08Who Orders It

A women's V-neck for brands, boutiques, and events.

01

Boutique & brand merch

The V-neckline reads as a deliberate choice rather than a default blank, which lifts a small-batch drop without moving to a premium ring-spun tee.

Retail Feel
02

Events & fundraisers

Brighter stocked colors like Azalea, Heliconia, and Coral Silk give women's event merch a palette the unisex Heavy Cotton blanks do not carry.

Event Merch
03

Programs running both necklines

Pair the 5V00L with the crew neck 5000L so a program can offer a V-neck and a crew at the same 5.3 oz weight and the same body dimensions.

Print shops & bulk resellers

A value-priced women's V-neck with no minimums, so shops can order a single sample or a full bulk run for a program on a tight budget.

Fixes and answers before you press.

Common problems & fixes

Usually wrong press settings or peel timing. Too little heat, light pressure, or peeling against the transfer instructions causes early lifting.Fix: 280 to 300°F for 10 to 15 sec, medium pressure (6 KG), pre-press to flatten, and peel hot or cold per your transfer.
A design placed at the standard crew neck drop sits too high on a V-neck and can run into the neckline or look off-center against the V.Fix: measure the drop from the bottom point of the V rather than the shoulder seam, and check the placement on a small size before the run.
The semi-fitted body is narrower than a unisex blank, so a design sized for a unisex 5000 can crowd the side seams on a 5V00L in S or M.Fix: check artwork width against the chest width for each size and scale the design down for the smaller sizes.
Cracking comes from hot washing or high-heat drying weakening the cured DTF layer over time.Fix: wash inside-out in cold water, tumble-dry low or hang-dry, and add care notes on the insert.
Most Gildan 5V00L colors are cotton-rich, and sublimation dye only bonds to polyester fibers, so full-color sublimation will not hold on solid colors.Fix: use a high-polyester blank such as the Gildan 42000 Performance for sublimation, or use DTF transfers, which work on every 5V00L color.

Frequently asked

The Gildan 5V00L is the women's V-neck member of the Gildan Heavy Cotton family, made from 5.3 oz US cotton in most colors, spun to 20 singles. It is semi-fitted with a side seamed body, cap sleeves, taped neck and shoulders, a narrow width rib collar, and a tear-away label. DTF Jersey stocks the Gildan 5V00L in sizes S to 3XL and 9 colors at its Elmwood Park, NJ facility.
Yes, the Gildan 5V00L is a strong choice for DTF transfers. Its sturdy cotton or cotton-blend surface, depending on the color, holds transfers well. The V-neckline lowers the top of the usable chest area, so measure the drop from the bottom point of the V rather than the shoulder seam. For DTF Jersey transfers, press at 280 to 300 F with medium pressure for 10 to 15 seconds, then peel as directed, unless the instructions supplied with your transfer specify otherwise.
The Gildan 5V00L comes in women's sizes S, M, L, XL, 2XL, and 3XL with a semi-fitted, side seamed cut and cap sleeves. It shares the same body dimensions as the crew neck Gildan 5000L, so programs running both necklines can size them the same way. Availability by size can vary by stock level.
No, there is no minimum order for the Gildan 5V00L at DTF Jersey. You can order a single blank or a full bulk run for a women's program, and larger volumes qualify for tier pricing. Contact DTF Jersey at 201-465-0000 or info@dtfjersey.com for a quote on your sizes, colors, and quantities.
