At MVP Season, we start all of our process by picking the top fabrics. The best shirts are also the most comfortable, best fitting and are made to survive.
American made is something we believe in deeply, which is precisely why we’ve dedicated immeasurable resources to growing our domestic sewing during the two-plus decades we’ve been manufacturing tees. Our shirt maker employs over 800 people in their Los Angeles facility, including the domestic sewing operation that yields an astounding 10 million units per year.
Hybrid Manufacturing
They’ve developed a hybrid approach to our manufacturing that utilizes America’s strengths along with the strengths of our international partners to create the highest quality product, at the best price, all while supporting US jobs.
Sourcing
They source fiber yarns and knit yarns from sources locally and from the best suppliers around the globe.
Dyeing
Bella+Canvas dyes the fabric locally (in Southern California) using the most efficient dyeing equipment available. For every pound of fabric dyed, we only use 3 gallons of water, which is 2-5 times less than other apparel manufacturers. To ensure the highest level of consistency of color, our color matching is all computer driven. Every fabric lot is color matched using automated equipment and checked on a lot by lot basis for consistency.
Cutting
Almost all of the cutting takes place right here, at their Los Angeles manufacturing headquarters. They have the most advanced cutting facility in North America and have developed proprietary software and cutting tables that allow them to cut an absurd number of garments a week with unmatched precision. Having each aspect close together allows them to produce T-shirts with the utmost attention to quality assurance.
We find great designers in each city that represent the best in their team. Let us know if you want to collaborate.
