The SIXELAR BASE is our cheapest wholesale streetwear blank tee, made in Los Angeles for clothing brands and startups building their own label. 6.2 oz, 100% open-end cotton, enzyme washed hard for the roughest, grittiest texture we make. Our bread and butter: the lowest price in the collection with real vintage character.

Why BASE

  • Our cheapest blank, by far
  • Our roughest, grittiest hand feel
  • Broken-down vintage look without faded color
  • The easiest way to test SIXELAR before going bigger

Made in LA means something

Streetwear trends start on American streets, and LA sets the tone. The taste comes from our streets, not overseas. Made in LA means taste, authority and craft from the city the rest of the world copies. Even our cheapest blank is made here.

Not mass-made overseas

Success requires the best. Mass-produced factory blanks have no taste and no authority. They're made by the million to be cheap, not to build brands. A brand built on them starts behind. BASE gives you LA-made quality at an entry price.

Made for brands

Built for brands with direction. Not for people playing pretend. BASE is for streetwear brands that want their blanks to already look like a finished product. Brands buy from us, then take them to their printer.

Fabric

  • 100% open-end cotton
  • 6.2 oz / 206 gsm
  • Heavy enzyme wash removes the clean factory finish
  • Reduced shrinkage after wash

Fit

  • Structured classic fit
  • Tubular construction
  • Inspired by 80s and 90s vintage tees
  • Sizes: S, M, L, XL, 2XL

Print ready

Take them to your printer for screen printing, DTG, puff print or embroidery.

White color notice

On smaller orders, white tees can come in slightly different shades of white, because they may come from different lots. Want every white tee to match? Order by the box: 72 units per size and color, all from the same lot.

How to test

Test with 12, not 1. BASE is our cheapest blank, so testing the full range costs less than you think. Grab every size (S to 2XL) in both colors, add two more, and you're at 12. You'll see exactly how each size fits and how each color looks, and 12 pieces unlock 50% off.

Bulk pricing

Test first, then scale up. Mix and match any SIXELAR blanks. Discounts apply automatically in the cart, no code needed.

PRODUCT DETAILS

BASE VINTAGE DISTRESSED.

BASE Distressed Blanks start with our classic BASE and take it up a notch. Tubular, classic fit. Each tee literally takes 7 minutes to hand-grind—sleeves, neck, hem—then it’s washed again so the distressing wears naturally. The result is a worn-down, aged tee with authentic texture, subtle fades, and that handmade vintage vibe that makes any collection stand out. Order this blank if you’re looking to maximize profit and boost your margins.

Our distressed blanks are excluded from our returns policy since they are distressed by hand to order. 

Model 6’2”, wearing size Large. 

Important note: Our vintage charcoal blanks are pigment-dyed and will shed color onto skin or other items until the excess dye is washed out. For more info please see "IMPORTANT NOTES" below.

These blanks are distressed by hand to order so are a final sale item.

CONTENT

100% Open Ended Cotton. 18 Singles. 6.2 Oz. 206 Gsm.

Except Heathers, which are 80% Cotton, 20% Dacron.

IMPORTANT NOTES

START WITH A TEST/SMALL ORDER BEFORE PLACING A LARGER ONE — ESPECIALLY FOR:

  • RAW EDGE OR DISTRESSED (TO-ORDER STYLES LIKE RAW EDGE BASE TEES, SHORTS, AND SWEATPANTS) AND DISTRESSED BASE BLANKS. SINCE EXTRA WORK IS ADDED,
  • CROPPED PIECES (LIKE THE CROPPED CORDLESS AND CROPPED TEES) SINCE LENGTH CAN VARY BY PREFERENCE.

ABOUT THE CORDLESS PIGMENT DYED HOODIES: 

Charcoal Pigment-Dyed and Faded Black run a bit larger than Vintage White, Vintage Black, and Heather Grey. 

They’re made bigger on purpose because high-heat dyeing shrinks the cotton. 

After the dye process, they never shrink smaller than the non-pigment colors — they’ll just fit slightly larger.

ABOUT THE CHARCOAL PIGMENT DYED BLANKS
  • Our VINTAGE CHARCOAL and RETRO SILVER blanks are pigment-dyed and will shed color onto skin or other items until the excess dye is washed out. For more info please see "IMPORTANT NOTES" below.
  • Due to the garment dye process, slight color variations may occur between batches. Each production lot absorbs dye differently depending on fabric composition and environmental factors. These tonal shifts are normal and expected with garment-dyed pieces.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT PRINT WITH WATER-BASED INKS ON CHARCOAL PIGMENT DYED SHIRTS AND HOODIES. USE PLASTISOL INKS WITH A WHITE BASE. (Printshops should be aware of non-reactive dyes. If they aren't, you are highly advised to work with a more experienced shop.) This doesn’t apply to the vintage black, heather grey, and white cordless hoodies.

Our vintage charcoal blanks are pigment-dyed and will shed color onto skin or other items until the excess dye is washed out. To care for your garment & minimize color transfer:

  1. Wash thoroughly before the first use. 
  2. Wash separately for the first few washes.
  3. Avoid contact with light fabrics/ upholstery/ leather etc.
  4. Do not spot-clean the garment.
  5. Avoid harsh detergents.

We aren't liable for damage from color transfer. Use signifies understanding of this risk. Contact customer service for more information.

Due to the dying process, there may be variations in texture and tones in blanks of the same color, especially with different batches.

DISTRESSED BY HAND

Our Base White Distressed Blank undergoes a meticulous hand-grinding process, eschewing the use of power tools to maintain an artisanal, less mechanized appearance. It is meticulously worn to evoke a genuine, well-loved look. Such meticulous attention to our products is only achievable when we approach our work as a dedicated brand, not merely a generic supplier.
