What's the pit to pit?

These Hanes blue / red bar tags are a bit of a authentication nightmare since they have so many organic differences between legit tags. So I could present 10 of them, all legit, that are all different. Check out the two variations below and how BEEFY-T occupies the space within the bar. Yours is the second example.

Our database has a done of them: https://www.defunkd.com/brand/hanes-beefy-t

So, I always opt to study the print first. It does look a little flat, but from the closeup of the print on the pocket, it looks to be half-tone dots from screen printing, so it's not DTG. And I also found several others on Pocket tees.

Yours is probably deadstock judging by the crispyness.

I think you're fine, but what's the pit to pit of the tee?

Thanks a lot for the very detailed answer, much appreciated.

The pit to pit is 50cm or 19,7 inches.

Probably deadstock then. If you wash it, hang or lay flat to dry, because it will shrink a lot otherwise.
