After we searched through alot of different brands and models of shirts we went with Bella Canvas. They were good but the biggest complaint was the neck streaches after about 5 washes. Even being very gentle with the washing & hang drying. Next level is what we have been going with for the last 3 years. The customers love them!
I personally use Next Level for my t shirts merch! Next Level is soft, very well made and I think is better than canvas. I feel like this guy is being super bias in this video and has a love for canvas, especially since he said he's even been to their manufacturing company. I also use canvas for my hoodies merch and the first day I got it the strings completely came out and I can't get it back in. So canvas doesn't really hold up that well based on my hoodie experience. Also if you look online there are more videos and people who prefer to use Next Level oppose to canvas.
Why would he not be bias? Their manufacturing process is better, they are made in the US, they are more form fit, they have 3X as many colors available. Seems to make sense to me.
Next level is a much better choice for men. The Bella Canvas has a narrow fit at the shoulders. It’s fine for women but most men do NOT like the fit. Too tight around the shoulders and even feels tight in the armpits. Also. The BC neck stretches out and ends up looking really bad
I print on alot of both brands and both are really nice shirts and print well. My clients love both but seem to prefer next level fit, their shirts are definitely a retail fit and not boxy at all.. . Both shirts fit well. I sell more next level.
I’m just starting my t-shirt business, and am wondering about both Bella Canvas and Next Level. Are they tight-fit? For example, would someone that wears a Large need to order an XL to be comfortable? If someone has a belly, will either of these brands stick and form to the belly, or will there be some breathing room? Thanks in advance!!
Im not a shirt busainess owner but I ordered a few because of my HS team that I coach... I was expecting Bella Canvas to be good because of the reviews and online praises. Boy was I wrong... Maybe it's their sizing that is too small (I ordered Mediums for myself to try it out... didn';t try a Large) but the fit was horrible. NL shirt was just amazing. It looked almost tailored to perfection. Loved it. B+C felt more like a hipsters super tight shirt - but then again it might be their sizing is smaller than NLs ... +Big Shrimp Entertainment from my experience B+C definitely fits on the smaller side. Im a Medium, even though I have broad shoulders and am fit ... the BC medium it looked ridiculous on me ... my shoulders could almost rupture the seams. Next Level was just like a glove. Felt amazing too. So BC definitely wears on the smaller size in my opinion. Oh and btw, I like tighter shirts/fits but BC was too much
Massive value bro. Respect. Thank you! Love ir review. The way you did everything seems almost as if U were talking to me via zoom. Thorough. U standout!
I am all in with next level. I have been using them for years just as a normal regular tee. They last and the fit is amazing. Listen, I have spent my own money to find the perfect tee for feel and wear. Next level is seriously “next level”.
Is it t shirts or also sweatshirts or sweatshirts things of that nature. What's your choice for a company if artist wants take further n sell coats n hats n gloves etc
Thanks for the comparison. Would it be correct to conclude, if someone is athletic and in good shape, the Bella Canvas might be a more flattering look? But if someone has an average body with a little extra belly fat, the Next Level might be more forgiving?
Thanks for the detailed review. Curious who's featured in the artwork in the background? My guesses are (from left to right): Slick Rick, KRS One, Big Daddy Kane, Biz Markie?
I get my designs printed on Bella + Canvas, I am very happy with the quality. Beeing a kid in the 80/90's I love the big , heavy fabric hip hop style for boys/teens/men/girls. Do you have a tip witch t-shirt brand/style to use ?
5’7” 145lb lean athletic build. Bought a size small from both companies to compare. IMO the Next Level tees are way too baggy for me and also hung too low. The BC fit like a glove. They’re very form fitting around the chest and shoulders and looked “sleeker” even tho both use a near identical cotton/poly blend. I bought like 25 in several different colors b/c that’s how satisfied I am lol. Very very nice wardrobe basic
Loved both these since they are both rlly similar, until I did a gym test the Next Level 3600 collar folded and lost its hold. Took Bella canvas 3001 to the gym twice same tee, and collar held. Going with Bella canvas 3001 for my brand Also LOVE the heavyweight version Bella canvas 3091 however they don’t have much stock on these
Another difference between Bella Canvas and the Next Level is that the NL 3600 is cut a but longer than the BC. That's one thing I'd like to see changed with the NL 3600. I've had some specific comments about that from mostly women, who say the NL runs a bit long and a littler bigger than the BC. Another thing is the white tees. Out of the NL 3600, the BC 3001C, and the Gildan Softstyle tee, the NL is not as transparent. I personally don't like the white tees to be too see through. It makes the tee look cheap. The NL is the best out of the 3 for white tees, but I just don't like the length as much as the other two. Anyone else have thoughts on these points?
I can't take this review at face value. He's an Bella Canvas endorser, so I knew he would conclude that Bella Canvas would be better before I even started the video. I appreciate his advices, but his videos are advertisements for Bella Canvas.
One thing I find hit or miss with many of these T-shirts are the shoulders. I always get the same size and some fit great while others will have this bump on the shoulder (you can kind of see it on the Next Level mannequin) due to stitching being a bit off I'm guessing. Its annoying because there's no way to fix it, its just random bad fits. I haven't tried Bella Canvas yet but for Next Level I've ordered about 8 shirts all the same size and 4 of them fit great while the other 4 of them had that bad shoulder bump or the arm holes were way to stretched and stuck out awkwardly. But my guess is Bella would have the same problem, just a mass produced type situation i'm guessing.
I purchased bella canvas, next level, gildan, allmade, and 2 more different blank brands. Bella and Next Level came out on top but I prefer Next Level for the tshirts. I found it more fitted then Bella and Next Level is actually marketed as "athletic fit". I did both with Bella for my tanks and womans sleeveless Tees.
Yes I did see it. Your video was pretty clear and informative. I like both Bella Canvas and Next Level. That's what intrigued me to watch your video in the first place and I saw both blanks in the video. I have seen some of your previous videos as well. Both brands are great but like you said in your vid, it comes down to personal preference. As far as T-shirts are concerned, I feel the Next-Level has a slightly more fitted feel so I went with Next Level. I do prefer Bella for tanks and sleeveless Tees but again, that's just my personal preference.
Biased for a reason. Thank you for a great informative video as usual. I love you man and appreciate the words of wisdom you share each and every time!
I actually got some made in USA Next Level shirts in my order of multiple sizes. If they're not made in the USA, they're made in Honduras. Great to see that they've got some American manufacturing going on in the company
I bought a Bella canvas 3001c and the sleeves as well as shirt shrunk a decent amount. I can fit most mediums and after the wash there is no way. It turned into a belly shirt. Plus oddly enough I also bought a large as well and after both were washed one of the shoulders had shrunk more than the other so I don’t wear them anymore because it drives me crazy
My church uses Bella Canvas T's.. They are awesome.. Stand the test of time with screen printing.. They're nice slim fit, modern and soft.. Love those T's!.. But I'm now curious about the NL T's.
My church uses Next Level. I'm a leader have to wear it every week and best t-shirt quality I've ever owned. Gone through many washes and still holding up very well
Pls I need help guys am just starting my clothing line pls what’s the best Unisex plain t shirt to buy on next level.will really appreciate if you help.thanks
I doubt that it is illegal. Most companies sell their blanks and know that it will be reprinted! What is illegal is using other people's trademarked or copyrighted images or slogans! GOOD LUCK
I've read not so much in the mens but particularly in the womens. Any BC womens shirt labeled junior or missy fit is going to fit SMALL and I mean, like your mom who wears a size 10 will have to get an XL if she regularly wears a medium. (or a large if she likes a tighter, snug fit).
Sherita Braswell-JenNINGS, at this point I have bought Bella canvas, Gildan, and Next level. Form my perspective customers like the bella canvas because it is soft and is made for fit/average body types. I have had a couple customers say that they thought Bella Canvas was a cheapie shirt because they are thin compared to Gildan. It's all preference. Gildan is a thicker shirt and tends to be a half size larger then the size tag. I consider Gildan to be a cheap shirt unless you buy their softer variation which is a good shirt and the size is 1/8 Bigger then tag size. That is good for customer who have a little belly but still consider themselves to be a medium or large🙄 Last up is Next Level. This is a good blank to use that bella canvas and Gildan user will like. It's cost is lower then bella canvas, has a thicker feel to bella, and prints well will DTG, silk screen. NL vs. Gildan is pretty even with Gildan's softer variation. My personal preference over all is still Bella Canvas. The majority of customers all say they love how bella canvas feels and wears and that leads to return orders.
Hello, thank you very much for such a detailed video. I haven’t started my business yet, it’s still in the research phase. I’m looking into selling only premium shirts, would you say both Bella canvas and next level qualify as premium. If not, do you have any suggestions or another video.
can you please explain about how to get a account i have a reseller certificate and they wouldnt let me start an account and buying from a distributor the blanks are 6.68 not 3.99
@@ernestolopez900 i did that and i have a resell certificate. they told me because i didnt have a large enough screen printing operation they couldnt give me an account
He may be sponsored by bella canvas but as printer who uses the brand, the 3001 is a really good garment for heat xfers, i cant speak for screen printing since i dont deal with that. I also have american apparel and tbh its just as good. However they can be a bit on the pricier side wholesale. BC has a great pricepoint and really is a fantastic garment. I have worked with other brands as well such as Gildan, Next Level, Hanes, Alstyle and Fruit of the Loom. I like the combed cotton fabrics as they have a better feeling than the heavy cotton tees. From my experience, I feel that Bella Canvas, American Apparel and Next Level are my top 3 go to tshirts for combed cotton. I choose bella over the other 2 because of its pricepoint as well as how well my xfers hold up on em after multiple washes. For thicker tees, my go to is Alstyle Classic 1301s, you really cant go wrong with heat xfers and screen printing on this garment. I really wish there were more review vids of other garments and models from other brands on youtube, it really is difficult to find reviews for these things especially since there is a lot of new people interested in starting up their own tshirt brands. Honestly if someone were to just start up a channel dedicated to reviewing blank brands, im sure that would blow up. Vids of wash tests for different types of printing would be great as well.
how's that a comeback? i literally commented that the proof is in the video because it is. he's the dumb ass who probably didn't even watch the whole thing and wanted to make a pointless comment.
hey! I am scrolling through the comments(I know this is several months old)...but I found some great shirts on SSActive (you do have to have a business license) or if you want to be more general try JiffyShirts.com (if you haven't already figured out this information!) GREAT LUCK
I’m just starting my t-shirt business, and am wondering about both Bella Canvas and Next Level. Are they tight-fit? For example, would someone that wears a Large need to order an XL to be comfortable? If someone has a belly, will either of these brands stick and form to the belly, or will there be some breathing room? Thanks in advance!!
I like bella+canvas shirts and tested them through printful but bella canvas is not available in asian countries. Is there a way we could order bella+canvas for example here in Malaysia?
I mean to keep it official, what about cologne spots some of us do it. And deodorant underarm spots mens degree and food stains like pizza oil just adding to the wash point you made.
I'm a 3x and the Bella canvas was feeling a little tighter than I'm used to. Others might appreciate the fit but I didn't. I like Gildan. Still waiting on my Gildan test order to arrive with the types that my printer has available. Bella and canvas is not my go to shirt.
We just received our order of 3xl Bella canvas, im typically a 2x but the BC was a bit too snug for me. The 3x fit well but the length was way too long, really huge difference in length from 2x to 3x. The 3001s are also form fitted so it is wise to go a size up from what you're used to. We got in some next level and american apparel tees and they're actually pretty dope. I dont screen print but I use plastisol heat xfers and they hold up very well with BC brand, will test em out on NL and AA garments now.
The Gildan 64000 shirt is pretty sweet. It's very soft and not too heavy. This is my go to shirt. The Gildan2000 is slightly heavier and feels more like a traditional shirt. Still a nice shirt and fits well. The winner is Gildan 64000 in my book.
Sounds interesting, i think ill put in an order for that model. I really need to find something more akin to the bigger boys such as myself. As much as I love the BC 3001, i feel they're too thin for the bigger boys, most have nipple concerns because of the fabric weight. Have you tried the Heavy cotton from bella? I bought one as a sample and its great for all body types, only issue i had with it was with the neck, it was a bit too loose for me, but fabric was top notch. 5x washed and dried on low, no issues with shrinking. is the G64000 the softspun stuff? How's the shrinkage and fade on it? Does it get that bacon neck effect after a few washes?
The G64000 is 100% Ringspun Cotton. Very soft and has been holding up well. As an alternative, I also use the Gildan 2000 Ultra Cotton which is slightly heavier at 6oz. This tee is reminiscent of the classic James Dean or "Fonzie" t-shirt that is not as soft but still 100% cotton. Alternatively to the Gildan 64000 that I've tried and liked, has been the Anvil 980. Very similar to the Gildan 64000 in every aspect except price. The Anvil is slightly more expensive but can also be a go-to short if needed. In regards to shrinkage, it shrinks slightly but nothing of a concern. The shirt relaxes after a little bit. My opinion on these shirts come from me buying them and trying them out on a 3XL. As I mentioned, the Bella Canvas was a joke to try to fit into. I immediately gave it to my daughter as a pajama shirt. If you're medium or slim, the BC might work fine. Otherwise, look elsewhere for a more comfortable fit. I have not yet noticed the bacon neck effect but that's probably because they're new. I think most shirts get the bacon neck after awhile. Crew necks more so than v-necks. I have heard good things of American Apparel. I will try them next to see how the fit is on a 3xl frame.
Hey all, hope you are well, greetings from sunny Hong Kong, was wondering what peoples thoughts are regarding Anvil apparel, quality choice is not great here and shipping from US is crazy, if they ship at all, from what Ive seen Bella just seems a tad thin , Vietnam seem to have pretty good quality apparel manufacturers, would really appreciate any knowledge, pretty green , anyway cheers for your time

I love this guys channel and his content but in his most recent videos he is being sponsored by bella + canvas
I agree. He’s more bias to Bella because he’s sponsored by them. To make a decision you would have to be neutral.

I have tried both. Next Level all the way it's much better and stitching is so much better.

Does it shrink when you wash it?
Is it t shirts or also sweatshirts or sweatshirts things of that nature. What's your choice for a company if artist wants take further n sell coats n hats n gloves etc
Do you have a video on men's tank tops
+1 new subscriber the very second you put them in the wash. Very thorough my man. Thank you.
I have been having issues with next level picking up lint like crazy. Maybe I need to try bella?
How were they washed? Inside out? Cold? Gentle cycle? Were they both really washed the same way?
Thanks for the detailed overview! I really appreciate that. AND I appreciate the classic cadence that kicks off the video in the intro. Props.
I used to love Canvas but the neck stretches out really bad after 3 washes. I switched to Next Level and they're so much better!
Thanks for the comparison. Would it be correct to conclude, if someone is athletic and in good shape, the Bella Canvas might be a more flattering look? But if someone has an average body with a little extra belly fat, the Next Level might be more forgiving?
Thanks for the detailed review. Curious who's featured in the artwork in the background? My guesses are (from left to right): Slick Rick, KRS One, Big Daddy Kane, Biz Markie?
I get my designs printed on Bella + Canvas, I am very happy with the quality. Beeing a kid in the 80/90's I love the big , heavy fabric hip hop style for boys/teens/men/girls. Do you have a tip witch t-shirt brand/style to use ?
5’7” 145lb lean athletic build. Bought a size small from both companies to compare.
IMO the Next Level tees are way too baggy for me and also hung too low. The BC fit like a glove. They’re very form fitting around the chest and shoulders and looked “sleeker” even tho both use a near identical cotton/poly blend.
I bought like 25 in several different colors b/c that’s how satisfied I am lol.
Very very nice wardrobe basic
Thanks for that review. Very insightful. I was debating between the two and I think I'll roll with bella for a while.
I ordered several colors in the same size in the bella and the sizing is inconsistent
Just wanted to say thankyou i really appreciate your videos. I'am just getting started in the t-shirt business.
Where can i buy this t-shirt
Too much shirts out there to choose from. I ordered a sample bella canvas shirt and love the feel. I'm still searching.
After reading all the comments I’m going with next level
You should 100%. Nothing wrong with it.
Nahh Fr 😂😂
Same here, thank God for TH-cam.
Lol same 😂😂
I’m glad I saw this before I finished the video
Loved both these since they are both rlly similar, until I did a gym test the Next Level 3600 collar folded and lost its hold.
Took Bella canvas 3001 to the gym twice same tee, and collar held.
Going with Bella canvas 3001 for my brand
Also LOVE the heavyweight version Bella canvas 3091 however they don’t have much stock on these
Did you find the Bella canvas 3001 to shrink?
great video , definitely going with bella canvas
Best review on TH-cam
I need shirts just like these but a thicker collar. If you know any brands let me know. I’d appreciate it

I want more USA made products! Your mini washer is so cute! : D Thanks for this battle.
cool thanks for watching..Check out my review of the mini washer th-cam.com/video/zZ5C-GVHmDw/w-d-xo.html
Of course the next level is going to have longer shoulder. It's a mens shirt vs an unisex shirt....
Thanks for doing this comparison. Before this, I was thoroughly confused. :D
Next level and american apparel I do like. As well for strength of material is a poly blend better or just cotton?
Good info bro love u review. Im actually new to the tshirt business. This video is a classic
Hey boss. How's your business going??
exactly what i've been looking for! first class video. thank you!

They’re both great. But NL has the better fit for sure, and it’s quite the opposite of boxy.
The armpits though...
How much bela canvas charge for T shirt?
Biased for a reason. Thank you for a great informative video as usual. I love you man and appreciate the words of wisdom you share each and every time!
What’s the name of the brand t-shirt you are wearing?
Going with Next Level!
I really like the shirt your wearing in this video. It looks great! Which one is that?
I don't know champ. I do a lot of design and print and NL has become my go to based on clients approval... IJS good vid but a little biased..lol
Thank you for this video ☺️💯
Is there any Hanes of fruit of the loom with rip away labels ?
Yes...
what color shirt do you have on in the video. it is the bella canvas silver shirt? 3001
What do you mean loose fibers? Did you wash them in cold or warm? What about the dryer
I actually got some made in USA Next Level shirts in my order of multiple sizes. If they're not made in the USA, they're made in Honduras. Great to see that they've got some American manufacturing going on in the company
Do you know what Bellas version of the 6210 is from next level?
Thanks for the videos
Could you show them on the manikin after the washing?
What about shrinkage after the 5 washes? Were they put through a hot dryer 5 times? Which one held its shape and size better?
Did any answer come for this??
I bought a Bella canvas 3001c and the sleeves as well as shirt shrunk a decent amount. I can fit most mediums and after the wash there is no way. It turned into a belly shirt. Plus oddly enough I also bought a large as well and after both were washed one of the shoulders had shrunk more than the other so I don’t wear them anymore because it drives me crazy
Really awesome stuff, still lots of help years later.
I want that little washer!!!!!
My church uses Bella Canvas T's.. They are awesome.. Stand the test of time with screen printing.. They're nice slim fit, modern and soft.. Love those T's!.. But I'm now curious about the NL T's.
My church uses Next Level. I'm a leader have to wear it every week and best t-shirt quality I've ever owned. Gone through many washes and still holding up very well
BELLA+CANVAS triblends are unbeatable. Review them next.
Good idea..Thanks
Pls I need help guys am just starting my clothing line pls what’s the best Unisex plain t shirt to buy on next level.will really appreciate if you help.thanks
THE WASH TEST IS THE BEST
How can I find out if they are a true size or run smaller?
I used bella canvas for a while, but I switched to NL and they're far better. NL last a LOT longer as far as color and fit.
In the process of starting a tshirt business. Where should I start?
Your washer turned those shirts from ‘red’ to ‘black.’
Tshaka Kojo 😭😭😭
😂😂😂😂😂😂 so funny. I was expecting the red illustrations
YOU ARE THE DOPEST!!! This was great, thank you!
Do you recomend washing a tee before ironing on an image on it?
This was a big help! Thank you!
for my body the fit was oppisite, the next level fits really tight in areas i dont like and bella is more of the boxy good fit
What about the SAAD shirts... definitely durable
Hi guys I’m base in the uk. Can anymore advise as to what permits I need to buy from Bella canvas and ship to the uk
How much is per T-shirt
Is it okay to print my design/logo on those shirts and remove the label and sell it ? Is it legal ?
I doubt that it is illegal. Most companies sell their blanks and know that it will be reprinted! What is illegal is using other people's trademarked or copyrighted images or slogans! GOOD LUCK
@@777Serenity4God Thank you for the answer sirr
@@jazer1370 I am definitely a woman. lol But you are welcome!
Next level will not shrink like bella does.. i bought both... but in the dryer bella don beat next level!
Good looking out sir. Thank you for the reviews. Stay up and God bless
I heard Bella canvas strink and next level is preselected strunk is that true ?
Do you know what what material they use for their tareaway labels?
The reviews that I read about bella is their sizing is way off. Do you find that to be true? Thanks👍🏽
sizing isn't off just more fitted/tighter… my XL Bella fit me about the same as my XL Next Level… just with a little closer fit… & shorter sleeves
It's my choice brand but you get a mix bag with them in my opinion
I've read not so much in the mens but particularly in the womens. Any BC womens shirt labeled junior or missy fit is going to fit SMALL and I mean, like your mom who wears a size 10 will have to get an XL if she regularly wears a medium. (or a large if she likes a tighter, snug fit).
Yup, you'd have to order a size up for a looser fit. No way does the BC come true to size.
Sherita Braswell-JenNINGS, at this point I have bought Bella canvas, Gildan, and Next level. Form my perspective customers like the bella canvas because it is soft and is made for fit/average body types. I have had a couple customers say that they thought Bella Canvas was a cheapie shirt because they are thin compared to Gildan. It's all preference. Gildan is a thicker shirt and tends to be a half size larger then the size tag. I consider Gildan to be a cheap shirt unless you buy their softer variation which is a good shirt and the size is 1/8 Bigger then tag size. That is good for customer who have a little belly but still consider themselves to be a medium or large🙄 Last up is Next Level. This is a good blank to use that bella canvas and Gildan
user will like. It's cost is lower then bella canvas, has a thicker feel to bella, and prints well will DTG, silk screen. NL vs. Gildan is pretty even with Gildan's softer variation.
My personal preference over all is still Bella Canvas. The majority of customers all say they love how bella canvas feels and wears and that leads to return orders.
i love this video bro and made a quick decision for me
What's the brand of the washing machine? I need something like that for my setup.
check this out my brother..I do a review on one of my other channels th-cam.com/video/zZ5C-GVHmDw/w-d-xo.html
NEXT LEVEL. I always get great feedback from my clients
What about shrinkage?
did the bella canvas shrink after wash?
Virtually all clothing shrinks in the wash...However Bella's shrinkage is minimal
Hello my brother what shirts Be Be use?
Hello, thank you very much for such a detailed video. I haven’t started my business yet, it’s still in the research phase. I’m looking into selling only premium shirts, would you say both Bella canvas and next level qualify as premium. If not, do you have any suggestions or another video.
you can tell that next level doesn't drop straight down, it has folds horizontily, bella is a better fit
can you please explain about how to get a account i have a reseller certificate and they wouldnt let me start an account and buying from a distributor the blanks are 6.68 not 3.99
Just go on the website and fill out the application
@@ernestolopez900 i did that and i have a resell certificate. they told me because i didnt have a large enough screen printing operation they couldnt give me an account
You’re bias to bella canvas though so...
So?? The proof is in the video...
He may be sponsored by bella canvas but as printer who uses the brand, the 3001 is a really good garment for heat xfers, i cant speak for screen printing since i dont deal with that. I also have american apparel and tbh its just as good. However they can be a bit on the pricier side wholesale. BC has a great pricepoint and really is a fantastic garment. I have worked with other brands as well such as Gildan, Next Level, Hanes, Alstyle and Fruit of the Loom.
I like the combed cotton fabrics as they have a better feeling than the heavy cotton tees. From my experience, I feel that Bella Canvas, American Apparel and Next Level are my top 3 go to tshirts for combed cotton. I choose bella over the other 2 because of its pricepoint as well as how well my xfers hold up on em after multiple washes. For thicker tees, my go to is Alstyle Classic 1301s, you really cant go wrong with heat xfers and screen printing on this garment.
I really wish there were more review vids of other garments and models from other brands on youtube, it really is difficult to find reviews for these things especially since there is a lot of new people interested in starting up their own tshirt brands. Honestly if someone were to just start up a channel dedicated to reviewing blank brands, im sure that would blow up. Vids of wash tests for different types of printing would be great as well.
Brandi Graham I’m going to touch my toes. When I do that, go right ahead and kiss my ass.
Pistol Panda comeback of the year 😂😂😂🤣
how's that a comeback? i literally commented that the proof is in the video because it is. he's the dumb ass who probably didn't even watch the whole thing and wanted to make a pointless comment.
Great review. Thanks.
Brother can you do me a huge favor where can I find reasonable dress shirt for a clothing line.
hey! I am scrolling through the comments(I know this is several months old)...but I found some great shirts on SSActive (you do have to have a business license) or if you want to be more general try JiffyShirts.com (if you haven't already figured out this information!) GREAT LUCK
I love your videos and the information you share, thanks my dude.
Good afternoon.....thank you for this information!...appreciate it.
God bless!😊
I’m just starting my t-shirt business, and am wondering about both Bella Canvas and Next Level. Are they tight-fit? For example, would someone that wears a Large need to order an XL to be comfortable? If someone has a belly, will either of these brands stick and form to the belly, or will there be some breathing room? Thanks in advance!!
Fit's true to size
To me it’s a bit tight I like more of a stiff cotton tee
I got a concept that would be profitable?
I like bella+canvas shirts and tested them through printful but bella canvas is not available in asian countries. Is there a way we could order bella+canvas for example here in Malaysia?
Thank you for the insight. Looking to start my on clothing line. Really great info.
I mean to keep it official, what about cologne spots some of us do it. And deodorant underarm spots mens degree and food stains like pizza oil just adding to the wash point you made.
I having a hard time looking for child and toddler T-shirts and ruffle fine jersey tee
You say cut and dyed in USA so its just assembled over seas then?
Correct :) We do a lot of sewing in LA but the majority is done in Central America.
I'm a 3x and the Bella canvas was feeling a little tighter than I'm used to. Others might appreciate the fit but I didn't. I like Gildan. Still waiting on my Gildan test order to arrive with the types that my printer has available. Bella and canvas is not my go to shirt.
We just received our order of 3xl Bella canvas, im typically a 2x but the BC was a bit too snug for me. The 3x fit well but the length was way too long, really huge difference in length from 2x to 3x. The 3001s are also form fitted so it is wise to go a size up from what you're used to. We got in some next level and american apparel tees and they're actually pretty dope. I dont screen print but I use plastisol heat xfers and they hold up very well with BC brand, will test em out on NL and AA garments now.
The Gildan 64000 shirt is pretty sweet. It's very soft and not too heavy. This is my go to shirt. The Gildan2000 is slightly heavier and feels more like a traditional shirt. Still a nice shirt and fits well. The winner is Gildan 64000 in my book.
Sounds interesting, i think ill put in an order for that model. I really need to find something more akin to the bigger boys such as myself. As much as I love the BC 3001, i feel they're too thin for the bigger boys, most have nipple concerns because of the fabric weight. Have you tried the Heavy cotton from bella? I bought one as a sample and its great for all body types, only issue i had with it was with the neck, it was a bit too loose for me, but fabric was top notch. 5x washed and dried on low, no issues with shrinking.
is the G64000 the softspun stuff? How's the shrinkage and fade on it? Does it get that bacon neck effect after a few washes?
The G64000 is 100% Ringspun Cotton. Very soft and has been holding up well. As an alternative, I also use the Gildan 2000 Ultra Cotton which is slightly heavier at 6oz. This tee is reminiscent of the classic James Dean or "Fonzie" t-shirt that is not as soft but still 100% cotton. Alternatively to the Gildan 64000 that I've tried and liked, has been the Anvil 980. Very similar to the Gildan 64000 in every aspect except price. The Anvil is slightly more expensive but can also be a go-to short if needed. In regards to shrinkage, it shrinks slightly but nothing of a concern. The shirt relaxes after a little bit.
My opinion on these shirts come from me buying them and trying them out on a 3XL. As I mentioned, the Bella Canvas was a joke to try to fit into. I immediately gave it to my daughter as a pajama shirt. If you're medium or slim, the BC might work fine. Otherwise, look elsewhere for a more comfortable fit.
I have not yet noticed the bacon neck effect but that's probably because they're new. I think most shirts get the bacon neck after awhile. Crew necks more so than v-necks.
I have heard good things of American Apparel. I will try them next to see how the fit is on a 3xl frame.
Hey all, hope you are well, greetings from sunny Hong Kong, was wondering what peoples thoughts are regarding Anvil apparel, quality choice is not great here and shipping from US is crazy, if they ship at all, from what Ive seen Bella just seems a tad thin , Vietnam seem to have pretty good quality apparel manufacturers, would really appreciate any knowledge, pretty green , anyway cheers for your time
Where are you getting this $2.99 price point?? I've been shopping for blank tees for a week and only see pricing $4 and up. Please help.
