I don't think there is a universal "best", but you can view lots of people's opinions on which ones they like here: http://www.t-shirtforums.com/wholesa...rts/t5862.html

I prefer the anvils. They are more consistent in weight and have by far fewer flaws that Glidans. We mainly use them, great shirts, but we do still buy Gildan as a backup, anvil has more options as well.

Gildan discharges well, that's one reason I use them a lot. (discharge screen printing, where you remove the shirt's dye to make the printed design)
I have heard that beefy-t doesn't. And gildan has so many colors!
