Comfort Colors 1717 sizing, fit, colors, and live Toolbox POD prices in one practical guide. Use the flat measurements to choose a tee or build a clearer listing.
On this page
The Comfort Colors 1717 is the relaxed, garment-dyed tee in the Toolbox POD lineup. If you are ordering for yourself, use a shirt you already like as the reference. If you are selling it, put the flat measurements on the listing and let buyers choose from numbers instead of guessing from a model photo.
Short answer
At Toolbox POD, the Comfort Colors 1717 runs from S through 3XL. A medium measures 20.25 inches across the chest and 28 inches long when laid flat. It is our relaxed-fit premium tee, priced from $11.59 for one printed side. Measure a favorite tee flat, compare width first, then check length.
Comfort Colors 1717 size chart
These are garment measurements, not body measurements. Lay a tee flat, smooth it lightly, and measure straight across the chest about one inch below the armholes. Length runs from the high point of the shoulder to the hem. The numbers below are the live measurements for the Comfort Colors 1717 offered at Toolbox POD.
| Size | Flat width | Length | One-side price |
|---|---|---|---|
| S | 18.25 in | 26.6 in | $11.59 |
| M | 20.25 in | 28 in | $11.59 |
| L | 22 in | 29.4 in | $11.59 |
| XL | 24 in | 30.75 in | $11.59 |
| 2XL | 26 in | 31.6 in | $13.59 |
| 3XL | 27.75 in | 32.5 in | $15.59 |
How the 1717 fits
The 1717 has a relaxed cut and garment-dyed look. It is not a slim performance tee. That does not mean every buyer should automatically size down or up. Fit language gets fuzzy fast. A better answer is to show the chart, name the relaxed fit, and compare the buyer's favorite shirt against it. More blank and print guidance lives in the shirts and printing hub.

For a closer fit, start with the width of a tee the wearer already owns. For a roomier look, move to the next width only after checking its length too. From medium to large, the chart adds 1.75 inches of flat width and 1.4 inches of length. That is a real change in silhouette, not a rounding error.
Pick a color that supports the design
Toolbox POD carries eight Comfort Colors 1717 colors. The color is part of the design decision, not just a swatch. A pale ink illustration needs enough contrast to stay readable. A dark detailed print needs enough open space around it. If your artwork already has a lot going on, a calmer shirt color often gives it more room to work.
Use light colors for dark art
Ivory gives deep blues, black line work, and rich red prints a clean background.
Use dark colors for bright art
A darker tee can make simple cream, yellow, or pale blue art feel deliberate without making the design busy.
The Premium Tee starts at $11.59 for S through XL, which is $3 more than the Gildan 64000. It makes sense when a garment-dyed, relaxed look is part of what a customer is buying. If your priority is the lowest starting cost or a larger color selection, compare it with the shirt-printing basics and browse the two blank options on our shirts page.
Measure it before you order
Grab a tee that fits now
Use a shirt with the fit you want, not a shirt you hope will fit after it comes out of the wash.
Measure flat width first
Go straight across the chest below the armholes. Double-check the number before you compare sizes.
Compare length second
Measure shoulder to hem. Length matters when you move up a size for more chest room.
Choose the blank with the right job
Pick the 1717 when you want its relaxed, garment-dyed feel. Pick the Gildan 64000 when price and its wider color range matter more.
Selling tip
Put the chart in the product images and repeat the dimensions in the description. Buyers should not need to message you for the basic measurement that decides whether they order.
What does Comfort Colors 1717 mean?
Garment dyed
The shirt is dyed after it is sewn. That process gives the 1717 its softened, lived-in color treatment. It is still a short-sleeve crew-neck tee, not a different category of garment.
Toolbox POD prints every shirt DTF. Your design can go on the front, the back, or both. One printed side is included in the listed shirt price. Adding the back costs $5 per shirt. Shipping is a flat $5.95 per order, whether the order has one shirt or several.
Put the size chart where customers can use it
A size chart buried after a long product description is easy to miss. For a store listing, make the chart a product image, then repeat the same measurements in the description. Use the same unit everywhere. Inches are what the Toolbox POD shirt page uses, so do not make shoppers convert from one system in the listing and another at checkout.
Keep the product copy plain. Say that the 1717 is a relaxed, garment-dyed tee. Say what sizes you offer. Say the print is DTF. Then point to the chart. You do not need to promise that it fits everybody the same way, because it will not. A customer with a dependable measurement has a much better chance of ordering the right size than a customer reading broad fit adjectives.
Do this
Show the complete chart near the size selector and use a photo mockup that matches the blank a buyer will receive.
