What Our Customers Say
I’m very happy with the sweater I had made for my dad - the quality is very good and it washes well as far as the pigment and embroidering not getting altered. It was also a lot cheaper than the swag that I was otherwise going to buy through a name brand company!
I'm really happy with the final product I received. Proud to support a Canadian company!
The custom shirts were made as designed with fast shipping.
Absolutely love the quality of the Tshirt. I have had this same print made 5 times over the years and these are by far the best for print quality colour. All the highlights are there and not filled in. Great job! I’ll be back!
Great company to work with from design to shipping, ever step was easy and seamless. For any size project, this is the company to deal with.
I’ve gotten custom tees printed from them twice now & honestly the quality, speed of delivery and the ease of making the tee is insane!! 10/10
Great service quick ship good products
Great quality products and fast delivery . I am a repeat customer!
I've been happy with our experience, printing looks good on apparel and delivery time is reasonable.
I ordered branded t-shirts for my workplace from T-Shirt Elephant. Not only did the shirts turn out great! They were ready a full week early, making my life SO much easier. Will absolutely be ordering from them again!
First and foremost it's nice that I know I'm speaking with a human if I have a question or update to make. Secondly the options, price, ease of use, and delivery speed has been fantastic. I've ordered 4 crew sweatshirts and they are incredible comfortable. Very happy to have a Canadian company offering such a wide range of wearable, customizable products!
Great custom pieces!! I order 3 different items with different images and they all turned out amazing!! Website was very user friendly. They have many selections of clothing items and more!! Good quality of materials and great image transfers!! Thank you for turning a vision to reality!!
Love my hats - they're big enough for the guys and fully adjustable for the rest of us
I have ordered multiple products from this company. Products are always great quality. Delivery is very quick and communication is good. I look forward to ordering again in the future.
Made everything perfect and website was super user friendly
Got a great quality shirt without having to wait too long!
Amazing hoodie, was a gift for my son. The logo for his gaming channel was bright and clear, and he's worn it several times already. We will definitely reorder from here for any other custom items. Thank you!
Website was easy to use, we got t-shirts made for our seafood market/fish and chips restaurant for our staff and to sell to our customers, shirts were received within the time frame communicated, happy with the quality of printing, would order again.
The sweaters and tshirts we ordered are perfect! The quality of the material is even better than I was expecting! Everything was easy to order and arrived on time. I will be placing future orders!
We've ordered custom T-shirts with our company logo from T-shirt Elephant several times, and they've always been great to deal with. Orders consistently arrive on time, the print quality is excellent, and they offer a wide variety of clothing to choose from. Overall, very satisfied with the service, and I'd recommend them to any business looking for branded apparel.
Ordered baby onesies for corporate gifts and the print and fabric quality are great! Easily accessible customer service :)
Good quality for a good price, service was 100a%
Exceptionally well done and high quality.

Product Description
Bella+Canvas 3001CVC Heather CVC T-Shirt: The Retail-Quality Custom Tee
The Bella+Canvas 3001CVC is the heather version of the legendary Bella+Canvas 3001, arguably the most popular premium blank t-shirt in North America. Made from a CVC (Chief Value Cotton) blend of combed ring spun cotton and polyester, it delivers an incredibly soft hand feel with a subtle heathered texture that looks and feels like a retail fashion tee. This is the shirt streetwear brands, Etsy sellers, and premium merch lines choose when quality perception is everything.
The gold standard in premium custom tees. Printed in Canada with no minimums, 10-day turnaround, and free shipping on orders over $250.
Fabric & Construction
- 52/48 Airlume combed and ring spun cotton/polyester CVC blend: Bella+Canvas's proprietary ultra-soft yarn
- 4.2 oz / 142 GSM: lightweight with a premium, drapey feel
- Airlume combed and ring spun cotton: 30% softer than standard cotton, with a smoother, cleaner surface
- Heathered texture: the CVC blend creates a subtle, natural marled look that's trending across fashion and streetwear
- Side-seamed construction: contoured fit that follows the body, no boxy tubular shape
- Ribbed crew neck: fits snugly without being tight, holds shape without curling
- Shoulder taping: reinforced for durability and lay-flat comfort
- Tear-away label for easy rebranding
Fit & Sizing
- Unisex retail fit: modern, slightly fitted silhouette. Not boxy, not skin-tight, the sweet spot
- Available in XS through 4XL
- 100% cotton version: see Bella+Canvas 3001C Jersey Tee for solid colours in 100% Airlume cotton
- Youth version: see Bella+Canvas 3001Y Youth Jersey Tee
- Runs true to modern retail sizing, slightly slimmer than Gildan. Size up if you prefer a relaxed fit
Bella+Canvas 3001CVC vs Gildan 5000: Why the Upgrade?
- Softness: The 3001CVC is dramatically softer, Airlume cotton is 30% softer than standard cotton. Customers notice the difference in seconds
- Weight: The 3001CVC is 4.2 oz (light, drapey) vs the Gildan 5000's 5.3 oz (heavier, structured). Different feel entirely
- Fit: Side-seamed retail fit vs tubular straight cut, the 3001CVC looks like a fashion tee, the 5000 looks like a custom tee
- Aesthetic: The heathered CVC texture adds visual interest and a premium, modern look
- Perception: Customers perceive the 3001CVC as a "real shirt" worth keeping, not a promotional giveaway
- Recommendation: Choose the Gildan 5000 for budget-friendly bulk orders. Choose the 3001CVC when your custom tees need to feel like a retail product, merch, brand apparel, corporate gifts, and anything customers pay for.
Best Print Methods for the Bella+Canvas 3001CVC
- Screen Printing: beautiful results. The smooth Airlume surface produces incredibly crisp, detailed prints. The heathered background adds a unique vintage quality to printed designs.
- DTF (Direct-to-Film): excellent on all colours. The lightweight fabric means transfers sit smoothly without stiffness.
- Embroidery: works well for small logos. Use lightweight backing for best results on this lighter fabric.
- Heat Transfer / Vinyl: excellent adhesion on the smooth surface.
