Magnum Heavy Crewneck Sweatshirt 5799-01

United Athle is one of the most respected premium blank apparel brands on the Japanese market, recognized for its rigorous manufacturing standards, colorfastness, and dimensional stability—key criteria for customization professionals. HEAVYTEX is the exclusive distributor of United Athle in France, with a permanent inventory available for delivery within 24 hours for all orders placed before 10 a.m..

United Athle's designs and standards are Japanese, developed by C.A.B. Clothing Inc. Manufacturing takes place in China, Vietnam, and Myanmar, at partner factories operating under Japanese quality control procedures. Each product is approved after passing material durability and functional tests conducted by an accredited third-party organization in Japan—a level of rigor rarely seen in the blank market.

The United Athle line offers a range of weights depending on the product category: T-shirts ranging from 120 to 180 g/m², breathable mesh jerseys at 140 g/m², and sweatshirts ranging from 410 to 510 g/m² for the thickest items. Each product page on heavytex.com specifies the exact composition, weight, and type of yarn. This information is essential for calibrating your printing settings.

Like any natural cotton fabric, slight shrinkage may occur during the first few washes. United Athle selects yarns and knitting processes that minimize this effect.

United Athle products made of 100% cotton are compatible with plastisol and water-based inks in accordance with standard professional screen printing guidelines. For blends containing polyester, the use of a migration blocker is still recommended when using light-colored plastisol inks on dark backgrounds—a precaution that applies to all polyester or poly-cotton blanks on the market.

United Athle products made of 100% cotton are suitable for DTG printing according to standard protocols. For dark colors, applying a pretreatment is still recommended, as with any cotton blank on the market. Results may vary depending on the equipment used and the machine settings specific to each workshop.

DTF works on United Athle cotton and cotton-polyester blends, including dark colors, without any special pretreatment—in accordance with the standard procedure for this technique. Wash fastness depends on the quality of the film and adhesive used, as well as the heat press settings applied.

Machine embroidery can be applied to the entire United Athle line. Using a stabilizer suited to the fabric weight of the garment remains the basic rule for any blank, regardless of the brand. Sweatshirts and hoodies, due to their high fabric weight, hold up well under the embroidery frame.

United Athle has a dedicated quality department with established internal standards. Products are approved after undergoing material durability and functional tests conducted by an accredited third-party organization in Japan. Quality control is carried out directly at partner factories, with on-site testing performed before each shipment.

As with any professional apparel, minor variations between dye lots are inherent in the industrial process. United Athle enforces strict quality control procedures at its partner factories. For reorder purchases requiring color consistency, we recommend contacting us to verify the availability of current batches.

Each United Athle product has its own size guide with measurements in centimeters taken flat: back length, chest width, shoulder width, and sleeve length. Measurements vary by product category—T-shirts, baseball jerseys, or sweatshirts. Minor variations may occur depending on fabric characteristics and the manufacturing process. Complete measurements by size (S through XXL) are available on each product page at heavytex.com.
