This is particularly popular for tour shirts, where you want to display dates and venues on the back.
Bella Canvas Has Consistent Sizing
With less expensive, tube shirts, the sizes that you ordered might vary from shirt to shirt. For example, if you buy 3 mediums, it’s possible that one might be significantly smaller than the others.
Bella Canvas uses sophisticated technology to make sure that the tees they cut are identical in terms of size. Bella Canvas cuts hundreds of millions of garments a year with laser-guided automated cutting. All other manufacturers use hand cutting, which leads to inconsistency.
Bella Canvas 3001 comes in 8 sizes ranging from XS to 4XL which makes it a perfect fit for everyone. Take a look at the Bella canvas 3001 size chart below to see the exact measurements of each shirt size produced.
Bella Canvas’s high tech cutting machines cut the fabric in vacuum-sealed bags to make sure nothing moves and nothing varies by even a millimeter. This reduces fabric waste because special software makes sure all the cuts are precise and the fabric is used to its fullest.
Bella Canvas Airlumed and Ringspun Cotton
The grade of cotton used in manufacturing also determines its quality, specifically how the cotton is refined before it’s spun for garments.
There are four types:
- 1. Carded Open End
COE cotton is inexpensive, and you’ll find it in the cheapest tees on the market. It’s stiff and rough. Fewer and fewer people are willing to settle for this grade for garments.
- 2. Ringspun
Ringspun cotton contains the dirt and impurities that you’ll find in natural, raw cotton. The cotton isn’t as clean, the print surface isn’t optimal, and the garment itself doesn’t feel as soft.
- 3. Combed and Ringspun
Combed and ringspun cotton cleans out all the impurities, but a lot of manufacturers won’t do this, because it reduces the yield. Nevertheless, you’ll be left with a product that’s soft and suitable for printing, without any of the impurities.
- 4. Airlume Combed and Ringspun
Bella Canva’s processes leave it with about 25% of the cotton mass it started with. They comb and ring spin their cotton, but they also only use the longest staples of cotton with the least amount of stray fibers. This results in the softest feel, and also the best surface for printing.

Bella Canvas Shrink Prevention
Natural fiber garments like cotton-based garments can suffer from shrinkage. The main issue is that, during the spinning process, the fibers are stretched out and put under tension. The heat from hot water or a dryer will release this tension and reverse the stretching process. Preshrunk cotton goes through this shrinking process before the fabric is cut, reducing the total after cut shrinkage to a maximum of 5%.
1. Stretching Width-Wise
Bella Canva stretches its fabric width-wise to help reduce the tension in the lengthwise spinning and stretching process.
2. $1 Million Shrink Drying Chambers
Air blowers tumble the fabric and heat triggers the cotton to relax and shrink before cutting.
3. Steam Compacting Shrinks Lengthwise
Bella Canva uses steam compactors to steam the fabric, this reduces the length and makes it physically shorter before cutting.
4. Pre-shrinking Keeps the Shape of the Tee
Without pre-shrinking, the seam along the side can move and be stretched one way or another, because the shrinking will occur after the sewing. This way, the seam, and tee keep their shape, even after washing and drying.
5. Shrinkage of Less Than 5% – Wow!
Bella Canvas’s 3001 shirts should only shrink 5% or less, either lengthwise or widthwise, once they’re in your customers’ hands.
