UNSPSC 53103005: Unisex tshirts

Basic t-shirt with short sleeves and a round neckline suitable for both sexes.

UNSPSC 53103005 Unisex tshirts, a Commodity code, covers procurement of unisex t-shirts and related apparel items sourced by state and local governments for employee uniforms, public safety operations, and community outreach programs. Recent solicitations show state and local agencies buying t-shirts as components of broader uniform supply contracts—often paired with polos, button-ups, tactical gear, and customization services including embroidery, screen printing, and branded logo placement. The issuing bodies span state agencies (Texas Facilities Commission, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, Illinois Secretary of State), county governments (Clayton County, Georgia; Hillsborough County, Florida), cities (Philadelphia, Phoenix, Richardson), school districts (Laredo ISD, Magnolia ISD), and transit authorities (Hillsborough County Sunshine Line). State departments and larger municipal school districts appear as repeat buyers with ongoing annual or multi-year uniform refresh requirements.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Illinois, Georgia, Florida, and Arizona. Representative solicitations include the Texas Facilities Commission's RFP 0007240 (due July 7, 2026) for uniform purchase and rental services across four locations, encompassing rental poly-cotton blend shirts and fire-resistant uniforms for facilities and security personnel; the Texas Comptroller's ITB 304T26200A1 (due July 13, 2026) for 30,000 tactical polo shirts in CornerStone CS410 proprietary brand for the Texas Department of Criminal Justice; Clayton County Board of Commissioners' ITB #26-57 (due July 9, 2026) for approximately 500 police uniforms requiring local showroom and five-year vendor experience; and the Illinois Secretary of State's RFQ 26PS014053 (rebid posted March 17 and April 21, 2026) for 1,590 initial shirts plus ongoing monthly orders through June 30, 2029, with union print-shop silk-screening required. Contracts typically run one to five years with optional renewals, demand expedited delivery (14–30 days standard, faster for emergency orders), and require vendors to carry commercial general liability insurance between $500,000 and $2,000,000 per occurrence and workers' compensation at statutory limits.
