“Frank here with BulkCustomShirts.com. Today we’re going to be reviewing the Bella+Canvas 3001C.
This is a 100% ring-spun cotton unisex t-shirt. For those interested, it does have tear-away tags, so let’s see how it looks.
The first thing I noticed about this shirt is it has more of a retail fit. That means the sides are slightly tapered in, and it’s a little more fitted on your arms.
As far as the feel goes, it has a nice lightweight, soft, premium feel, which is actually pretty comfortable. As for price, it falls in the lower-middle range, which in my opinion makes it a pretty good option.
So that’s it for this shirt. If you’d like to see more content, be sure to give us a follow, and don’t forget to visit us at BulkCustomShirts.com. Thank you!”
First, the Bella Canvas 3001C uses 4.2 oz. Airlume combed and ringspun cotton. Combing removes short fibers, so the fabric feels smooth and light instead of scratchy.
The shirt also has side seams and shoulder taping. As a result, it holds a clean retail shape that looks like something from a boutique, not a promo bin.

The retail fit tapers slightly at the sides and sits closer on the arms. Therefore, it flatters most body types, and many customers order their normal size. If your group prefers a looser fit, however, consider sizing up one size.
Screen printing looks excellent on the Bella Canvas 3001C. The smooth combed cotton holds fine lines and small text well, so detailed art prints cleanly. For heather colors, Bella+Canvas makes a sister style, the 3001CVC, which blends cotton and polyester. In addition, soft water-based style prints feel great on this lightweight blank.
