I would go with Next level, they have a superior product, and while more expensive, their Brand has a much higher "perceived value" and therefore will bring a higher retail to justify the higher price. The 6200 Poly Cotton Crew and the 6210 CVC crew are both excellent products, they have an excellent soft hand. Remember, they are a young mens profile, and only work for slimmer fit.

Have you ever used the Next Level hooded sweatshirts? I have a request for sweatshirts with my own brand and don't want a gildan. The hanes nano doesn't look bad but shrinkage in Hanes seems a consistant issue here...

 

Is Alternative and Next Level American made apparel? I don't know. Have you tried or sampled Bella/Canvas American made T's? I have a customer that uses B/C exclusively because they are American made and they are ring spun cotton.' and they print nicely. I get my B/C from Heritage Sportsware in Ohio. One day delivery and free shipping over $150 order. Just a suggestion.

 

Bella/Canvass have an American Made version of some of their products. The distributors I checked didn't carry much inventory of the American made product, and they wanted more for it than AA would cost me.

No supply issues with that distributor? Happy with the price? I'm on the west coast so didn't check Ohio!

 

NoXid......Surprised that B/C isn't readily available on the West coast. Their mill is in LA. Maybe it's just a local thing here. My distributor stocks all the American Made B/C shirts. We go by the stock numbers B6004U, womens, and C3001U mens. If I order by 6, I get next morning delivery, which is cool with me.

Every part of the country has it's own preferences, I guess.

 

Next level is made in China

 

Alternative Hands down is the best on the market!

I occasionally used American, Next Level, Bella/Canvas, District, Alo, or for Bamboo at about 2-4x the price ONNO brand.

Get all the top stuff I have left I am exiting the trade and wasn't willing to hand these over with equipment deals as It was near about $800 for the lot.

Cotton Heritage & District are a couple other options. I am big fan of the fit and feel of Cotton Heritage's shirts. They print (DTG) better than any other brand I have seen!

 

Oh, lots of regular B/C available at a decent price about 3 miles from my house, but low stock and high price on the American made items.

 

I prefer Next Level t-shirts, similar quality to American Apparel, but a fraction of the price. I do like Alternative Apparel hoodies, but I have tried a couple different products from Alternative and their sizing is always off to me. Next Level is the better in sizing in my opinion.

 

Pretty much all of them we listed are great - Next Level, Royal, Canvas, are practically the same basic tees with different labels its in the higher end items their contrast is noticed.

BTW if anyone wants my lot of blanks make me an offer I dont want to ebay.
