About BELLA+CANVAS
BELLA+CANVAS started in 1992 with two founders printing t-shirts in a Los Angeles garage — decorators first, apparel makers second — who couldn't find blanks worth printing on and decided to make their own. The women's-first Bella label added men's styles to become BELLA+CANVAS in 2002, and the company has since grown into the largest T-shirt manufacturer in North America, all while keeping design, dyeing and cutting at its LA headquarters. The brand's "Be Different" ethos shows up in the details that matter to anyone putting a logo on a garment: proprietary Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton with the stray fibres combed out for a cleaner print surface, side-seamed construction for consistent fit, and retail-driven silhouettes that people choose to wear — the difference between merch that gets worn and merch that gets drawered.
Custom BELLA+CANVAS Tees & Sponge Fleece Hoodies at Supply Crew
The Supply Crew range is a curated fashion-merch lineup across two families. The tees cover the essential fits: the unisex Jersey V-Neck and women's Relaxed V-Neck in 4.2oz 100% Airlume cotton, the slim-fit Women's Favorite Tee with its longer body, and featherweight 3.8oz Triblends in unisex and women's cuts — the 50/25/25 poly/Airlume/rayon fabric with the vintage drape that streetwear and band merch live in. The hoodie side is built on BELLA+CANVAS's signature 7oz Sponge Fleece: the classic Pullover with kangaroo pocket, the DTM version with dyed-to-match drawcords for a tonal look, the Full-Zip, a women's Cropped hoodie with dropped shoulders and raw hem, and an 8.2oz Triblend Full-Zip. Every garment is side seamed and carries a tear-away label — so your merch can be relabelled as entirely your own — with broad colour palettes across the range.
BELLA+CANVAS Sustainability & Print Quality
BELLA+CANVAS makes most of its garments the hard way — designed, dyed and cut in Los Angeles — and uses that control to back real environmental claims: dye machines that use 7x less water than the industry average, bluesign® approved dyes and chemicals, fabric scraps recycled rather than landfilled, and WRAP-certified ethical manufacturing. The same obsession drives print quality: Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton has its impurities and stray fibres removed before spinning, giving a smoother, cleaner surface that holds fine detail in screen printing and DTG alike. For merch programs where the garment is the product — retail drops, band merch, premium staff kit — that combination of ethics and printability is the whole reason decorators specify the brand.

BELLA+CANVAS FAQs
+ Can I get BELLA+CANVAS apparel with my logo?
Yes. Supply Crew supplies genuine BELLA+CANVAS garments custom branded with your logo or design using screen printing, DTG or embroidery. The smooth Airlume cotton surface is specifically what makes these blanks a decorator favourite — fine detail and large prints both come out crisp. Our team will recommend the best method for your artwork and quantities.
+ What custom BELLA+CANVAS products does Supply Crew offer?
Supply Crew stocks a curated BELLA+CANVAS lineup: unisex and women's jersey V-neck tees, the slim-fit Women's Favorite Tee, unisex and women's Triblend tees, and the Sponge Fleece hoodie family — pullover, DTM, full-zip, women's cropped and triblend full-zip. Browse the products above for the current selection.
+ What is Airlume cotton?
Airlume is BELLA+CANVAS's proprietary combed and ring-spun cotton. The combing process removes impurities and short, stray fibres before the yarn is spun, producing a smoother, softer and more consistent fabric surface. For custom branding that matters twice over: the garment feels retail-soft, and the cleaner surface holds printed detail more sharply than standard cotton.
+ What is a triblend tee?
A triblend combines three fibres — in BELLA+CANVAS's case 50% polyester, 25% Airlume cotton and 25% rayon — into a featherweight 3.8oz fabric with a soft, slightly heathered, vintage look and a drape that regular cotton can't match. It's the go-to fabric for fashion merch, band tees and retail-style drops where feel and look sell the shirt.
+ Can I rebrand BELLA+CANVAS garments with my own label?
Yes — every BELLA+CANVAS garment in the range has a tear-away label, designed to be removed and replaced with your own printed neck label or brand tag. That makes the range ideal for merch lines, clothing drops and retail programs where the finished product should carry your brand alone, not the blank manufacturer's.
+ Is BELLA+CANVAS sustainable?
Genuinely. Most BELLA+CANVAS garments are designed, dyed and cut in Los Angeles, where the dye house uses bluesign® approved dyes and machines that use 7x less water than the industry average, fabric scraps are recycled, and manufacturing is WRAP certified for ethical labour practices. It's sustainability built into the factory, not just the marketing.
+ Can I see an artwork proof before production?
Yes — twice over. You can Design & Create your own mockup instantly on any product page to see your logo on the product before you even request a quote. Then, once your order is confirmed, Supply Crew provides a detailed artwork proof for your approval — placement, size and finish — before production begins.
+ What is the minimum order quantity for custom BELLA+CANVAS apparel?
BELLA+CANVAS styles in the Supply Crew range carry a minimum order quantity of 25 units. The exact minimum order quantity is confirmed on each individual product page.
+ How long do custom BELLA+CANVAS orders take to produce and deliver?
Custom BELLA+CANVAS orders typically take 2–4 weeks for production and delivery, depending on the styles selected, the branding method and order volume. Our team will confirm an exact turnaround estimate once your order and artwork are finalised, so you can plan around your launch, tour or event date.
