MAKE UNDER THE MICROSCOPE
Next Level Apparel
Cotton, CVC and Tri-Blend T-shirts
Next Level Apparel helps compare the bases under print through the prism of the material. Cotton, CVC and Tri-Blend give you other options for picking a grip, appearance, and fashion. It is also important to distinguish between the European catalogue and the US offer.
Explore collections and applicationsEuropean and American Collection
The European Next Level Apparel website presents T-shirts and sweatshirts and is operated by Stedman. The American catalogue is distinguished by Cotton, CVC, Tri-Blend, Sueded and Fleece. It should not be assumed that the full offer of both markets is identical.
If you care about a particular fashion seen in a foreign store, keep its code. Brand name and photo of the silhouette is not enough to confirm the replacement.
Cotton, CVC and Tri-Blend - how to choose?
The CVC is described by the manufacturer as a blend of cotton and polyester. Tri-Blend is a separate material family. The exact composition must be read from the product card; do not move parameters from one model to the whole brand.
For the final customer, it is important how the T-shirt lies and how printing is felt. It is worth to compile samples in a similar color so that the tone difference does not overshadow the comparison of fabric and cut.
How to plan a print on the mess?
Melange introduces its own fine color structure. When using thin lines, check its readability from normal distance, not just on an enlarged screen. Covering primers and contours may change the intended effect.
The polyester material requires the appropriate process to be selected. Transfer parameters and the risk of discoloration shall be assessed for a particular base garment. The test is particularly useful with a bright pattern on a saturated color.
Merch for musicians and community
A soft T-shirt with one characteristic theme can be a good starting point for the collection. Extensive design on the front and back does not always increase the attractiveness of clothes - it is worth comparing both variants on the sample.
Collect orders according to real dimensions, not just S-XL letters. For the next batch, refer to the specification you have written so that the same name does not replace the previous product unconsciously.
IT'S WORTH KNOWING.
