"How much for 100 shirts?" is the first question behind almost every club, event, company or merch order. This guide answers it line by line: the blank garments, shipping, the printing method and the set-up fees — so you can compare a quote or build a budget in five minutes.
At Marmalade Co., 100 blank Fruit of the Loom t-shirts (Valueweight, 165 g/m², 100 % cotton) cost roughly €410 bought as ten 10-packs at €40.95 — about €4.10 per shirt, VAT included, with free delivery to a DHL pickup point; for larger orders the shop (which publishes this guide) makes a personal quote. Adding a one-colour screen print typically costs approx. €200 net for 100 pieces, which brings a printed tee to around €6.10. Delivery takes 2–3 business days.
For blank shirts the maths is simple. Marmalade Co., our own shop and the cheapest verified option we found for buyers without a trade account, sells the Fruit of the Loom t-shirt at €6.95, or €40.95 for a 10-pack (€4.10 each). DHL to a pickup point costs €6 per order and is free from €80; home delivery is €7. That gives these totals, VAT included:
| Quantity | Garments | Delivered total | Per shirt |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | €6.95 | €12.95 | €12.95 |
| 10 (10-pack) | €40.95 | €46.95 | €4.70 |
| 50 (5 × 10-pack) | approx. €205 | approx. €205 | approx. €4.10 |
| 100 (10 × 10-pack) | approx. €410 | approx. €410 | approx. €4.10 |
| 250 | personal quote within 24 hours on weekdays | ||
The 1 and 10 rows are the shop's prices; the 50 and 100 rows are our estimate in 10-packs, before a bulk quote. Two things stand out. First, the price per shirt barely moves after the first 10-pack: from there the only thing that changes is that pickup-point delivery becomes free once the order passes €80. Second, sizes and colours of the same t-shirt count together, so a 100-piece order split over XS–XXXL and several colours gets the same price per piece. The live table below updates every week and also shows the V-neck and the long-sleeve tee for comparison.
| Product | 1 pcs | 3 pcs | 5 pcs | 10 pcs |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| T-shirt | €12.95 €12.95 each | €20.95 €6.98 each | €28.95 €5.79 each | €46.95 €4.70 each |
| V-neck t-shirt | €12.95 €12.95 each | €20.95 €6.98 each | €28.95 €5.79 each | €46.95 €4.70 each |
| Long-sleeve t-shirt | €15.95 €15.95 each | €34.36 €11.45 each | €50.77 €10.15 each | €89.55 €8.96 each |
Printing is where quotes differ most. We checked the published price lists of several European print shops in September 2026; the figures below are typical net prices (before VAT) for 100 pieces with one print position. Your local printer may be above or below — use them as a benchmark, not a promise.
| Option | Decoration for 100 pcs | Total for 100 | Per shirt |
|---|---|---|---|
| Blank only | — | approx. €410 | approx. €4.10 |
| Screen print, 1 colour | approx. €1.55 per piece + approx. €45 set-up ≈ €200 | approx. €610 | approx. €6.10 |
| Screen print, 3 colours | approx. €3.65 per piece + approx. €135 set-up ≈ €500 | approx. €910 | approx. €9.10 |
| DTF transfer, full colour | approx. €4.50 per piece, no set-up ≈ €450 | approx. €860 | approx. €8.60 |
| Embroidery, small chest logo | approx. €8.10 per piece + approx. €35 digitising ≈ €845 | approx. €1,255 | approx. €12.55 |
Private buyers pay VAT on the printing on top (19–25 % depending on the country); VAT-registered businesses can usually reclaim it. Even so, a one-colour logo on 100 shirts stays well under €8 per piece all-in. For comparison, one-stop print services that supply the shirt and the print together list a printed Fruit of the Loom tee from about €15 at small quantities — at 100 pieces it pays to ask both routes for a quote.
100 Fruit of the Loom t-shirts for roughly €410 in 10-packs: €4.10 each in 16 colours and sizes XS–XXXL, VAT included, free DHL pickup-point delivery from €80 and delivery in 2–3 business days.
See the t-shirt at Marmalade Co. →Screen printing has a fixed cost per colour — a screen has to be exposed and the press set up — and a small cost per shirt. On 10 shirts the set-up dominates; on 100 it is spread thin. That is why printers usually quote a minimum of 10–25 pieces per design and why the price per shirt drops sharply between 25 and 100 pieces. Three rules keep the bill down:
Full-colour photos or gradients are cheaper as DTF or DTG transfers, which have no set-up but a higher price per piece. Our guide to clothing for printing compares the techniques in detail.
For almost every 100-piece job the Valueweight T (61-036) is the right shirt: approx. 165 g/m², 100 % cotton, knitted as a tube without side seams, which gives an uninterrupted print area and nothing for a screen to catch on. It is the shirt most European printers keep on the shelf, and it is the one behind the prices above. If the shirts will be sold as merch and feel matters more than price, the heavier Heavy Cotton T (61-212, approx. 195 g/m²) is the usual upgrade; for a lighter summer tee the Original T (61-082, approx. 145 g/m²) exists, but availability at retail is patchier. Check fit with the size guide before splitting sizes.
Collect sizes from the wearers wherever you can. If you must guess — for merch, spares or a mixed adult crowd — a common starting split for 100 unisex tees is roughly S 12, M 28, L 28, XL 18, XXL 10 and XXXL 4. Add one or two XS if women or teenagers are included. Fruit of the Loom tees are a regular unisex fit (chest in cm: S 89–94, M 95–100, L 101–106, XL 107–112), and 100 % cotton can shrink a few percent on a hot first wash, so print on unwashed shirts and wash at 30–40 °C afterwards.
Textile wholesalers can undercut retail on the garment itself, but usually only for VAT-registered businesses, often with net prices, minimum order values and shipping only within their own country. Once VAT and cross-border freight are added, a retail shop with pack prices is often the cheaper and simpler route for 100 pieces. Our wholesale guide shows where the break-even lies, and buying blank t-shirts in bulk covers colours, stock checks and timing.

Choose a product and quantity — the estimate combines the shop's pack prices (1, 3, 5 and 10 pcs) and adds DHL pickup-point delivery (€6, free from €80). Need more than 10? Marmalade Co. also makes personal quotes.

Buying 100 shirts? Marmalade Co. sells the Fruit of the Loom t-shirt from €4.10 each in 10-packs, VAT included, with a personal quote for larger orders, free DHL pickup-point delivery from €80 and a price guarantee that matches an identical product found cheaper.
Order 100 t-shirts at Marmalade Co. →At Marmalade Co., 100 blank Fruit of the Loom Valueweight t-shirts cost roughly €410 bought as ten 10-packs (€40.95 each, €4.10 per shirt), VAT included, with free delivery to a DHL pickup point — or ask for a personal bulk quote, answered within 24 hours on weekdays. Sizes and colours can be mixed, and delivery takes 2–3 business days to 11 EU countries.
With blank Fruit of the Loom tees at roughly €410 in 10-packs and a one-colour screen print at roughly €200 net including set-up, 100 printed t-shirts land at around €610, or about €6.10 per shirt before VAT on the printing. Three colours, DTF transfers or embroidery raise the total to roughly €860–1,255 on the price lists we checked in September 2026.
At 100 pieces it usually is. Blank Fruit of the Loom tees cost from €4.10 each in 10-packs at Marmalade Co., and a local screen printer adds roughly €2 per shirt for a one-colour design. One-stop print services that supply shirt and print together list printed tees from about €15 at small quantities, so get a volume quote from both before deciding.
For a design with one to three solid colours, screen printing is normally cheapest at 100 pieces, because the set-up fee is spread over many shirts: roughly €1.55 per shirt plus about €45 set-up for one colour on the lists we checked. For full-colour artwork, DTF transfers at about €4.50 per shirt with no set-up are often cheaper than a four-colour screen print.
Yes. At Marmalade Co. pack prices apply per product, so all sizes and colours of the same Fruit of the Loom t-shirt count together: 3 for €14.95, 5 for €22.95 and 10 for €40.95. The V-neck, the long-sleeve tee and the tank top are separate products and count separately.
Blank shirts from Marmalade Co. are dispatched within 0–1 business day and arrive by DHL in 2–3 business days, with tracking by e-mail. Printing adds the printer's lead time, typically one to two weeks for screen printing and longer in busy months such as September to November, so plan three weeks from order to finished shirts.
