How pricing worksDo 2XL and 3XL custom shirts cost more?
Yes, a little, because the blank costs more: on a Gildan 5000, a 2XL adds $4 and a 3XL to 5XL adds $6 a shirt. At 48 shirts that makes a 2XL $13 instead of $9. Every product page lists its own size prices.

Why do bigger sizes cost more?
The blank shirt costs more from the mill; the printing is the same.
