Highly Recommend! This was our first time ordering shirts and Jason walked me through the whole process and was patient enough to provide me with shirt options and his honest opinions of which would suit my needs better. Communication was quick, prices were great, and quality is amazing.
Excellent service and great quality!! Also fast service !
I ordered two shirts, white printing on black for the first and black printing on white for the other. The shirts look very good. Sharp and clean. The shirts themselves seem of decent quality.
Many thanks to T shirt elephant. They rushed my order and offered delivery so I could get my summer camp t shirts on time! The t shirts themselves were fun to design and looked great, but the customer service saved the day!
Our experience with T-Shirt Elephant was excellent. The product came just as we were expecting and arrived quicker than we thought it would.
Great quality. Fast and friendly service. Will definitely order again.
I uploaded a favorite photo of mine and had 2 T-Shirts made and they were spectacular. One was a gift for my son and one for myself. We both LOVE them...

Uploading my design and choosing colors was very easy. The shirts were made and shipped in a pinch for our softball playoffs.

Looks great! If only I'd ordered the correct size, my bad! Ordering another!
My first time ordering with T-Shirt Elephant, and have to say that I am very pleased and impressed. Website was easy to use to design my shirts and the delivery of my 100+ shirts arrived exactly when promised. I ordered the American Apparel T-shirt and am very impressed by the quality of the shirts themselves, as they have a nice weight, and by the printing which was spot on. Everyone that I give a shirt to is immediately impressed by the quality. Thank you T-Shirt Elephant, fantastic job!
Product Description
Bella+Canvas 3001C Unisex Jersey T-Shirt — The Fashion Blank That Changed Custom Printing
The Bella+Canvas 3001C is the shirt that redefined what a blank t-shirt can be. Made from 100% Airlume combed and ring spun cotton — a proprietary yarn that's 30% softer than standard cotton — it delivers a retail-quality feel, modern fitted silhouette, and ultra-smooth print surface that's made it the #1 choice for fashion brands, Etsy sellers, print-on-demand shops, and anyone who wants their custom tees to feel like a premium product.
The most popular premium blank tee in the world. Printed in Canada with no minimums, 10-day turnaround, and free shipping on orders over $250.
Fabric & Construction
- 100% Airlume combed and ring spun cotton — Bella+Canvas's proprietary ultra-soft yarn (heathers are cotton/polyester blends)
- 4.2 oz / 142 GSM — lightweight with a premium, drapey feel that moves with the body
- Airlume cotton — combed to remove short fibres and impurities, then ring spun for a smoother, softer, more consistent fabric
- Side-seamed construction — contoured fit that follows the body naturally, 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 that looks and feels like a fashion tee
- Available in XS through 4XL
- Heather CVC version — see Bella+Canvas 3001CVC Heather CVC Tee for heathered colours in a cotton/poly blend
- Youth version — see Bella+Canvas 3001Y Youth Jersey Tee
- Long sleeve version — see Bella+Canvas 3501 Jersey Long Sleeve
- Runs true to modern retail sizing — slightly slimmer than Gildan. Size up if you prefer relaxed
3001C vs 3001CVC — Solid Cotton vs Heather CVC
- 3001C (this product): 100% Airlume cotton — solid colours with a natural cotton feel. Best for DTG printing and a classic cotton hand feel
- 3001CVC: 52/48 cotton/poly CVC blend — heathered colours with a slightly smoother feel. The heather texture adds visual interest
- Same fit, same quality — the only difference is fabric blend and colour range
- Recommendation: Choose the 3001C for solid colours and DTG printing. Choose the 3001CVC for heathered, marled colours and a modern aesthetic
Bella+Canvas 3001C vs Gildan 5000 — Why Brands Choose Bella
- Softness: The 3001C is dramatically softer — Airlume cotton is 30% softer than standard cotton. The difference is obvious in seconds
- Weight: The 3001C is 4.2 oz (light, drapey) vs the Gildan 5000's 5.3 oz (heavier, structured)
- Fit: Side-seamed retail fit vs tubular straight cut — the 3001C looks like fashion, the 5000 looks like a custom tee
- Sustainability: Bella+Canvas is a certified B-Corp with industry-leading sustainability practices
- Perception: Recipients treat the 3001C as a "real shirt" they wear regularly, not something that ends up in the donation bin
- Recommendation: Choose the Gildan 5000 for budget-friendly bulk orders where value matters most. Choose the 3001C when your custom tees need to represent quality — merch for sale, brand apparel, corporate gifts, and fashion lines.
Best Print Methods for the Bella+Canvas 3001C
- DTG (Direct-to-Garment) — the #1 method for the 3001C. The 100% Airlume cotton absorbs ink deeply for the richest, most vibrant DTG prints of any blank tee. This is why print-on-demand services overwhelmingly use the 3001C.
- Screen Printing — exceptional results. The smooth Airlume surface produces incredibly crisp, detailed prints with excellent colour vibrancy.
- 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.
- Heat Transfer / Vinyl — excellent adhesion on the smooth surface.
Popular Uses for Custom Bella+Canvas 3001C
- Print-on-Demand: The industry-standard blank for Printful, Printify, Gooten, and other POD platforms
- Retail Merchandise: Clothing brands, e-commerce stores, Etsy shops — the tee customers re-order
- Streetwear & Fashion: Independent labels, limited drops, capsule collections, influencer collaborations
- Band & Artist Merch: Tour merch, album tees — the quality fans expect when paying for a shirt
- Corporate Premium: Executive gifts, VIP event shirts, premium employee swag
- Weddings & Events: Bachelorette/bachelor parties, wedding party gifts, milestone celebrations
