Bella + Canvas 3480Y - Youth Jersey Tank - Navy

The Bella + Canvas 3480Y is the Youth Jersey Tank, the youth cut of the 3480 tank in the same 4.2 oz 100% Airlume combed ring-spun cotton on its solid colours, cut sleeveless with a rib-bound neck and armholes in a youth fit. The Airlume combed face on a youth tank is the point: it carries the same smooth combed ring-spun print face and soft hand as the adult 3480, so a youth team, camp or family program runs one artwork across adult and youth tanks on a matched soft body rather than dropping to a coarse value youth tank. That makes it the tank a shop reaches for when a program needs youth sizes on a soft fashion tank, the default for youth fitness and cheer merch, summer camp and event tanks, kids' beach and pool programs, and any sleeveless youth run where a soft combed face and a fashion fit decide the order over a basic youth tank.

The 3480Y spans solid, solid-blend and neon colours, and the blend on your colour decides the print rules. For screen printing, the solid colours print like a 100% cotton fashion tee, print straight to the lights and lay a white underbase on the darks, keeping the design inside the narrower tank front and clear of the bound armhole and neck on the smaller youth panel. For water-based and discharge, the 100% cotton solids strip the dye and lay the ink into the cotton for a soft, no-hand print, the right method for a soft youth tank that a child will wear and wash often, though the solid-blend and neon colours will not discharge to the same result. For DTF, the transfer bonds to the face at standard heat-press settings across every colour, the most consistent single method on the blends and neons as well as the solids. For DTG, the combed ring-spun cotton pre-treats and prints bright on the solids, softer and more muted over the solid-blend and neon colours. For embroidery, a left-chest design needs a cut-away backing and a stabilizer since the light youth tank body and the open sides leave little to hoop, so keep the stitch count low. For vinyl and HTV, solid heat-transfer vinyl presses clean on the combed face. The caveat is the blends: Solid White Blend and Solid Black Blend run a 52/48 combed cotton/polyester and the neon colours run a lighter 3.6 oz 52/48, so treat those like a CVC with a grey poly-block underbase on the darks and a lower cure, since discharge fades on them. Sublimation does not apply, since the cotton-dominant solids are not a polyester sublimation substrate.

The reorder note specific to this style: the 3480Y colour card mixes blends, true 100% cotton solids like White, Black, Navy and Red, 52/48 Solid White and Black Blends, and lighter 3.6 oz neon colours, so confirm which blend your colour is before a repeat run, because only the 100% cotton solids discharge and DTG bright while the blends and neons need a poly-block underbase. Pair the 3480Y with the adult Bella + Canvas 3480 to run the same tank body and artwork across youth and adult sizes, and cross-shop the Bella + Canvas 3480CVC when a program wants a full heather-CVC card on the same tank.
