Bella + Canvas is the defining brand of the premium blank t-shirt market, trusted by retail brands, custom apparel businesses, print shops, and merchandise programs that demand a level of fabric quality above what standard value-tier blanks deliver. The brand's Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton construction — used across the core 3001C lineup — produces a fabric surface that is noticeably softer, smoother, and more consistent than open-end cotton alternatives, which is why Bella + Canvas has become the default blank for retail-quality custom apparel programs across North America.
At Apparel O' Clock, we carry wholesale Bella + Canvas t-shirts across the full lineup for buyers who need premium blank apparel at competitive wholesale pricing. Whether you are a print shop producing high-quality decorated tees for retail clients, a brand building a merchandise collection, or an organization that wants the best possible blank for a custom program, Bella + Canvas delivers the fabric quality and style range that premium apparel buyers require.
Retail brands, e-commerce merchandise sellers, boutique print shops, and custom apparel businesses that compete on product quality rather than price alone consistently choose Bella + Canvas because the brand's fabric construction is visibly and tangibly superior to standard blank alternatives. When a customer picks up a Bella + Canvas decorated tee and a standard cotton blank decorated tee side by side, the difference in fabric softness, drape, and overall quality is immediately apparent — which is why brands that sell or give away decorated apparel invest in Bella + Canvas to make their merchandise represent their brand at the highest possible level.
Through our wholesale t-shirts category, bulk buyers can access the full Bella + Canvas t-shirt lineup including the 3001C Unisex Jersey Short Sleeve Tee, 3001CVC CVC Jersey Tee, 3413 Triblend Tee, and a broad range of specialty styles including crop tops, baby tees, and oversized silhouettes. These products are ordered by streetwear and lifestyle brands building premium merchandise lines, print shops serving retail and fashion-forward clients, corporate programs that want their branded apparel to communicate quality, event organizers producing merchandise for premium experiences, and e-commerce sellers who need a blank that photographs beautifully and generates positive reviews from customers.

Bella + Canvas blank t-shirts are among the most widely used premium substrates in the decorated apparel industry because their Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton construction delivers a print surface that produces noticeably sharper, more vibrant decoration results compared to standard open-end cotton blanks. The combing process removes short fiber and impurities from the cotton before spinning, producing a longer, more consistent fiber that creates a smoother, denser fabric surface — which translates directly to cleaner ink lay-down, sharper screen print edges, and more accurate DTF transfer adhesion.
The 3001C's 4.2 oz fabric weight is lighter than standard 5.3 oz cotton blanks, which gives finished decorated garments a more retail-quality hand-feel and drape that end consumers associate with premium apparel. This lighter weight does not compromise durability — the ring-spun construction produces a stronger, more resilient fabric than heavier open-end alternatives despite the lower stated weight. Our screen printing services deliver professional results on Bella + Canvas blanks, with the brand's smooth Airlume surface producing cleaner ink edges and more accurate color reproduction than standard blank alternatives.
For full-color, photographic, and detailed artwork programs, our DTF printing services produce exceptionally sharp results on Bella + Canvas's smooth cotton surface — the brand is one of the preferred DTF substrates in the industry because the fabric's consistency minimizes transfer irregularities that can affect detail resolution on textured or uneven cotton weaves.
Custom Bella + Canvas t-shirts are the standard for retail-quality branded merchandise programs because the garment itself communicates premium quality before the first logo or graphic is ever applied. For brands that sell or distribute decorated apparel as part of their business model — streetwear labels, lifestyle brands, music merchandise, influencer collections, and corporate premium gifting programs — the blank's quality is inseparable from the brand's quality in the eyes of the end consumer.
Custom Bella + Canvas t-shirts are ordered by independent apparel brands building retail collections, e-commerce merchandise businesses producing print-on-demand and small-batch fashion goods, corporate programs that use premium branded apparel as client gifts or employee benefits, event producers creating merchandise for music festivals, sports events, and premium branded experiences, and print shops that service retail-quality clients who specify Bella + Canvas by name for their decorated apparel programs.
Our embroidery services are available on Bella + Canvas t-shirt styles for programs that prefer embroidered logo decoration, delivering professional placements on the brand's ring-spun cotton construction that hold cleanly through repeated washing.

The 3001C's unisex fit uses a slightly fitted silhouette with a taped shoulder seam that provides a cleaner drape than standard boxy blanks, making it more appropriate for retail-quality merchandise where fashion fit matters alongside fabric quality. Sizing covers XS through 3XL across most core colors, with the 3001C available in an extended size range that supports inclusive merchandise programs. Women's specific styles including the 6400 Women's Relaxed Jersey Tee and the 6005 Ladies' Jersey Short Sleeve V-Neck offer alternative fits for programs that need gender-specific silhouettes.
