MATERIALS
60% Cotton 40% Polyester. Although this T-Shirt has 40% Polyester, it doesn’t really feel that way. It feels like a classic cotton t-shirt. There isn’t anything very unique about the feel/texture (unlike its brother, the 6410 T-Shirt which has an awesome suede like feel).
ABOUT NEXT LEVEL
There is a reason Next Level is so incredibly popular for wholesale t-shirts. Literally everyone loves them. In my opinion, for the price to value ratio, it doesn’t get much better than the 6210 or the 6410. Are there higher quality shirts out there? Absolutely, BUT for most people, this is all they need.
TRUE CLASSIC TEES & FRESH CLEAN THREADS
Have you heard of these two brands? Well they have basically replicated these Next Level shirts. True Classic is extremely similar to the Next Level 6410 and Fresh Clean Threads is similar to the Next Level 6210. The fit, the stitching, the material – all look the same. I’m not saying that these companies are taking next level shirts and putting their own logo, I’m saying if you want virtually the same shirt for less money, do yourself a favor and try a few Next Level shirts. I typically order mine from Clothing Shop Online.
DO THEY SHRINK? DO THEY LAST?
“Do they shrink?” was probably the most common question I received about these shirts and the answer is… not really. It’s said that they shrink about 5%, which is almost unnoticeable. I machine wash and dry all my clothes and I have never noticed any real shrinkage with these. They are made with 40% polyester, so they don’t shrink like a typical cotton t-shirt would. Whenever anyone first learns about these shirts and how affordable they are, most automatically think they won’t last. I’ve owned many 6210s/6410s for multiple years and most are still in good shape.
The video below was one of the first I ever posted on YouTube and to this day, it is my most successful. If you read through the hundreds of comments from people who’ve actually tried these t-shirts, you’ll understand why. People absolutely love these lol Check out the insane YouTube analytics on this video:
FIT
The fit on these is perfect for most men. The body length is 29″ on a size Medium and 30″ on a Large. The arm holes are slim, so if you need to size up, you’ll most likely still get the snug arm look along with the needed space for your beer-belly. These are also great for skinny guys because even they can most likely fill up the sleeves.
COMFORT
I think the 6210 is pretty comfortable. I’d give it a 7.5 out of 10 for comfort alone.
OVERALL
Overall, is this the highest quality t-shirt? No, but for the money is one of the best possible options if you’re looking for value/affordability? Absolutely. The fit is so good for the everyday t-shirt, it’s soft and comfortable, it doesn’t really shrink, and there are plenty of colors to choose from. I recommend trying both the 6410 and 6210 and seeing which you like best. Looking for long sleeves? Try there 6411 or 6211.
