Bella + Canvas 8601 - Women's Burnout Tee - Red

The Bella + Canvas 8601 is the Women's Burnout Tee, a 3.1 oz 55% Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton / 45% polyester tee finished with a custom burnout wash that gives it a sheer, semi-transparent surface, the lightweight burnout a decorator reaches for when a women's program wants a soft, drapey fashion tee. It is the tee for women's retail and boutique lines, festival and music merch, yoga and barre studio runs, layering pieces over a tank and any decorated batch that wants a sheer burnout to sit alongside a plain crew in the same artwork. The burnout wash selectively removes cotton fibres while leaving the polyester intact, so the fabric reads sheer and textured, with a 3.1 oz hand at 36 singles. The tee has a semi-relaxed fit, capped sleeves, a solid-colour rib neck trim, side seams and a tear-away label, in sizes S through 2XL, in seven colours: White, Navy, Black, Red, Chocolate, Soft Pink and Steel Blue.

The 8601 decorates as a thin, sheer 55/45 burnout, so two things control the layout: the fabric is semi-transparent, so a heavy print shows through and stiffens the drape, and the 45% polyester carries a dye-migration risk on the darker colours. Keep art small, soft and light so it sits with the burnout hand, and treat the solid-colour rib neck trim as a no-print zone. For DTF, the transfer bonds at a controlled press, kept small and thin so it does not stiffen the sheer fabric, the most consistent route on this burnout and the way most decorators run it. For screen printing with plastisol, run a soft-hand, low-deposit print with a poly-blocking low-bleed underbase and a reduced cure to hold back migration from the polyester, keeping the design small so the tee keeps its drape. For DTG, print light and small with a white underbase on the darker colours and a controlled deposit, since ink soaks and shows through the sheer burnout areas. For vinyl, a small stretch HTV presses cleanly, kept compact since HTV adds weight to the light fabric. Embroidery is not a route, since the thin, sheer burnout is a single layer with little structure, so a dense stitch puckers and the backing shows through the semi-transparent ground. Water-based and discharge are not a route, since the 45% polyester will not discharge and the burnout has already removed cotton in the sheer areas. Sublimation does not apply, since the bodies are piece-dyed and coloured.

The reorder note specific to this style: treat the 8601 as a thin, sheer 55/45 burnout, so default to DTF kept small and thin, run a soft-hand plastisol with a poly-block low-bleed underbase and a reduced cure, and print DTG light and small with a white underbase on the darks. Keep all art small and soft so it sits with the drape, and keep print off the solid rib neck trim. Skip embroidery, since the sheer single-layer puckers, and skip water-based and discharge, since the 45% poly will not lift.
