Description
The Bella + Canvas B6500 is the Women's Jersey Long-Sleeve T-Shirt, the women's cut of the Airlume long-sleeve program, a 4.2 oz tee whose smooth combed-cotton face is the reason a decorator picks it for a premium women's long-sleeve run. The solid colours are 100% Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton at 32 singles, the same fine yarn behind the Bella retail tees, so the print face is tighter and cleaner than a carded heavy-cotton blank. The body is side-seamed and cut to a semi-relaxed women's fit with coverstitched neck and armholes, the blank a shop reaches for when a women's retail, boutique or event line wants a long sleeve that drapes and holds crisp artwork. Heather colours shift the blend: Athletic Heather runs 90/10 cotton/polyester and the heather CVCs run 52/48, which changes how each shade takes ink. The body runs S-2XL.
The mixed colour card sets the decoration plan, since the same artwork meets three different blends across the range. Screen printing prints sharp on the 100% cotton solids: run straight on white and light bodies and over a white underbase on darks; the fine Airlume face holds tight halftone and fine detail. On the 52/48 heather CVCs, lay a white underbase under every heather and lower the cure, since the 48% polyester migrates dye into a print; the 90/10 Athletic Heather behaves close to a cotton solid with minimal blocking. DTG prints brightest on the cotton solids with a pretreat and near-solid on the 90/10 Athletic Heather, while the 52/48 heathers read more muted, so route the brightest art to the solids. Discharge strips the 100% cotton solids to a soft vintage hand with no hand feel, ideal on the Airlume face; the 90/10 Athletic Heather wants a wash-test, and the 52/48 heather CVCs will not discharge to a clean white, since nearly half the fibre is polyester. DTF presses consistently across the whole card, including every heather, and is the reliable single method for one artwork across the range. Embroidery sits on the 4.2 oz retail-weight body with a cut-away backing and moderate density for a left-chest or sleeve logo. Vinyl and HTV bond cleanly for names and numbers. Sublimation does not apply, since even the CVC heathers are cotton-dominant and will not hold the dye; route to a 100% polyester long sleeve for dye-sub.

The reorder note specific to this style: confirm whether your colourway is a 100% cotton solid, the 90/10 Athletic Heather or a 52/48 heather CVC before a repeat run, because the blend changes how discharge and DTG read on each shade. The B6500 shares the 4.2 oz Airlume jersey and retail hand with the unisex Bella 3501 long sleeve, so a women's-and-unisex run can print as one matched set, and the 3501CVC extends the same long-sleeve program onto a full heather card. The smooth combed face holds its print across reorders. TheClothingSpace stocks the B6500 at wholesale pricing with bulk discounts that increase as case and unit quantities rise, among the lowest prices online for this style, with fast US shipping on stocked colours.

Fabric Blend by Color Group
Not all colorways share the same fabric composition. Check the blend before ordering for decoration jobs where substrate matters.
| Color Group | Blend | Print Consideration |
|---|---|---|
| Solid colours (White, Red, Black, Navy, Cardinal, Baby Blue, Chocolate, Army, Pink, Dark Lavender) | 100% Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton | The print target: screen straight on lights with a white underbase on darks, run DTG bright with a pretreat, and discharge to a soft vintage hand on the smooth Airlume face |
| Heather Athletic | 90/10 cotton/polyester | Near-solid behaviour: screen, DTG and DTF print clean with minimal blocking, but wash-test discharge since the 10% poly will not strip fully |
| Heather CVCs (Heather Slate, Heather Dust, Heather Deep, Heather Mauve, Heather Deep Teal, Heather Dark Gray) | 52/48 cotton/polyester | Lay a white underbase under every heather and lower the cure to block the 48% poly; DTG reads muted and discharge will not strip to a clean white, so favour DTF or underbased plastisol |
