The Bella Canvas 3001 (one of my personal favorites) seems to have it all and all in a competitive price point. They\u2019re able to bring highly favorable quality for not so high of a cost. Now you can rock out with high-quality custom band merch without breaking the bank. The Bella Canvas 3001 offers a unisex style that is 100% ring-spun cotton shirt (super soft!)

Personally, I would always get excited when I saw that my favorite artist was using American Apparel. At this point, you could consider this a classic \u201cgo-to\u201d type of shirt that will make your fans happy. This is a type of garment you can expect your fans to wear time and time again. Even more of a reason for them support their favorite band\/artist! The American Apparel 2001 is considered a unisex style so it would have more of a slimmer fit fashion fit. This style is 100% ring-spun cotton, lightweight, with a tight-knit, making it a perfect surface for screen-printing and DTG printing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"1499\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/ptm_ramtshirtwhite_800.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/ptm_ramtshirtwhite_800.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/ptm_ramtshirtwhite_800-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/ptm_ramtshirtwhite_800-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/ptm_ramtshirtwhite_800-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">American Apparel 2001<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/ptm_ramtshirtblack_800.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/ptm_ramtshirtblack_800.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/ptm_ramtshirtblack_800-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/ptm_ramtshirtblack_800-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/ptm_ramtshirtblack_800-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"> American Apparel 2001 <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-comfort-colors-1717-6014-be-unique-with-your-custom-band-merch\"> <strong>Comfort Colors 1717\/6014: Be Unique<\/strong> with your custom band merch <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019re an artist and you\u2019re looking to move away from the standard type of band tee. Or maybe you want your merch to stand out from other custom band merch you\u2019ve seen in the past, these are styles you want to consider. You\u2019ll get a 6.1oz 100% ring-spun cotton garment with a ribbed collar. However, what makes these Comfort Colors styles interesting is that they are all garment-dyed. This results in beautiful unique colors that you just won\u2019t find anywhere else. Doylestown, PA artist, Weyes Blood has done just this by using the Comfort Colors styles for tour and online store. The garment fit and color is reminiscent of a vintage feel, I think pairs amazingly well with the music of Weyes Blood. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"604\" height=\"779\" data-id=\"1501\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/wbd18_a_1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1501\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/wbd18_a_1.jpg 604w, https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/wbd18_a_1-233x300.jpg 233w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 604px) 100vw, 604px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Comfort Colors 6014<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"604\" height=\"779\" data-id=\"1502\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/wbd18_b_1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1502\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/wbd18_b_1.jpg 604w, https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/wbd18_b_1-233x300.jpg 233w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 604px) 100vw, 604px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"> Comfort Colors 6014 <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-5 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"604\" height=\"779\" data-id=\"1504\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/wsb17_a.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1504\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/wsb17_a.jpg 604w, https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/wsb17_a-233x300.jpg 233w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 604px) 100vw, 604px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Comfort Colors 1717<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"604\" height=\"779\" data-id=\"1505\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/wsb17_b.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1505\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/wsb17_b.jpg 604w, https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/wsb17_b-233x300.jpg 233w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 604px) 100vw, 604px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"> Comfort Colors 1717 <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-bella-canvas-b8803-for-your-female-fans\"> <strong>Bella Canvas B8803: For your female fans<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Every style we have talked about so far has been a unisex style, something all your fans will be able to wear. However, if you want to pull out all the stops, why not have some custom band merch made just for the women! To offer an option that is solely for women will be much appreciated by your fans and if you give them something that is of premium quality, they\u2019ll wear it time and time again. Here we have a light-weight flowy muscle tank from one of my personal favorites, Bella Canvas. This is a must-have style that is designed with super soft poly-viscose fabric that drapes effortlessly around curves. With over 36 colors to choose from, you\u2019ll have a good number of options to choose from when creating your custom band merch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-6 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"931\" height=\"935\" data-id=\"1509\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/mac-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1509\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/mac-1.jpg 931w, https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/mac-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/mac-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/mac-1-768x771.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/mac-1-299x300.jpg 299w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 931px) 100vw, 931px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"> <strong>Bella Canvas B8803<\/strong> <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So you and the band have got the big tour coming up and you are going to need custom merch, or maybe you\u2019re an artist looking to stock your online store of new merch, but you are uncertain of which &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/2020\/01\/custom-band-merch\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,6,702,5,703],"tags":[706,707,705,708,704,709],"class_list":["post-1484","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-products","category-business","category-merchandise","category-printing","category-promotional-products","tag-artist-merch","tag-artist-merchandise","tag-band-merchandise","tag-best-blanks-for-band-merch","tag-custom-band-merch","tag-popular-blanks-for-band-merch"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1484","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1484"}],"version-history":[{"count":20,"href":"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1484\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3359,"href":"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1484\/revisions\/3359"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1484"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1484"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blankstyle.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1484"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
