  1. Screen printing custom designs on t-shirts is more popular than ever, both for personal use and for businesses offering customized or personalized apparel. When ordering wholesale men’s t-shirts for screen printing or any t- shirt for customization, it’s important to choose high quality brands and styles that are optimized for holding screen printed designs. The fabric of the tee, it’s weight, and construction dramatically affect the look and feel of the finished printed product. Three of the top wholesale t-shirt brands recommended for screen printing are Comfort Colors, Next Level, and Bella+Canvas. These brands offer diverse options for blank t-shirts in various fabric blends, weights, and silhouettes.

  2. Comfort Colors is known for their ultra-soft ringspun cotton t-shirts. Two of their most popular styles for printing are the C1717 (unisex) and the C3199 ladies t-shirt. These mid-weight 100% cotton tees have a relaxed straight cut and come in a wide variety of colors from neutrals to brights. The C1717 in particular comes in a huge variety of colors and is among the most budget- friendly bestsellers in YouApparel. The cotton holds screen printed designs well with great opacity and a soft handfeel. Next Level Apparel is a go-to for triblend tees that have a high percentage of polyester (50% polyester/25% cotton/25% rayon). The Next Level 3600 and 6410 are ideal for printing with a looser relaxed fit and tri-blend fabric that breathes well and reduces shrinking. The fabric provides a soft feel and vivid colors that complement screen printed designs.

  3. Bella+Canvas offers options like the unisex 3001C in 100% airlume combed ringpun cotton. It has a retail fit and comes in a huge range of colors. The materials and construction provide a perfect canvas for direct to garment printing and screen printing with no bleeding or distortion. When preparing to order bulk men’s t-shirts for your print orders, get product samples first from brands like these to test your designs. Many factors like print technique, inks, and curing can affect the final printed product. Test different men’s blank t-shirts options to determine which provides the best print quality, opacity, handfeel, and finish for your designs. Pay close attention to how the t-shirt fits before and after printing to allow for any shrinkage. Going with a high quality blank tee designed specifically for printing will result in a better end product that showcases your designs and graphics.
