Hanes helps break world record

LAS VEGAS—Andy Coyne of Greenville, S.C.-based screen print shop The Graphic Cow, reclaims the Guinness World Record for number of T-shirts worn by an individual. Coyne, who originally set the record in June 2009, established the new record by wearing 249 Hanes T-shirts, the official outfitter of the effort.

“When we lost the record we set two years ago to the gentleman in Croatia, we knew we wanted to fight hard to get it back,” said David Carter, CEO of The Graphic Cow. “That’s why we decided to partner with Hanes. We knew they had the product selection, technology and sizes to get our title back.”

The screen printer used a full range of Hanes T-shirts, including styles from the Hanes Cool-Dri, nano-T, ComfortBlend and Beefy-T collections, to reach his goal.

In celebration of the new world record, Hanes donates 25,000 Box Tops through its Hanes4Education program to the school of The Graphic Cow’s choice. Hanes4Education is a national program that enables elementary and middle schools to earn valuable Box Tops for purchases of printed Hanes shirts. Schools are able to redeem the Box Tops for cash that can be used to purchase much needed items such as books, computers and playground equipment.
