Is the Bella Canvas 3005 the same size as the 3001?

Same chest at every size and a quarter-inch shorter in the body. The difference you feel is the neckline, not the fit.

How deep is the 3005 V-neck?

The spec sheet does not publish a neck drop, so this page does not quote one. It is a moderate V rather than a deep one, but if the depth matters for a uniform, measure a sample.

Does a V-neck change where the print goes?

Yes. The neckline eats into the top of the print area, so the usable space starts lower and narrower than on a crew. Position from the shoulder seam rather than the collar.

Bella+Canvas 3005 Size Chart

Unisex Jersey Short Sleeve V-Neck Tee. Brands publish two different tables and call both a size chart, so both are below and each says which it is.

Garment measurements

The shirt itself, laid flat on a table. Chest is measured across, one inch below the armhole, so it is half the way round.

Size	Body length at back	Chest
XS	26 3/4"	16 1/2"
S	27 3/4"	18"
M	28 3/4"	20"
L	29 3/4"	22"
XL	30 3/4"	24"
2XL	31 3/4"	26"
3XL	32 3/4"	28"
4XL	32 3/4"	28"

Body length at back: Measured from high point shoulder to finished hem at back.
Chest: Measured across the chest one inch below armhole when laid flat.

Body measurements

The person, not the shirt. Chest is measured all the way around the fullest part with the tape horizontal.

Size	Chest
XS	31" – 34"
S	34" – 37"
M	38" – 41"
L	42" – 45"
XL	46" – 49"
2XL	50" – 53"
3XL	54" – 57"
4XL	58" – 61"

Chest: Measure under the arm and around the fullest part of the chest with arms down, keeping the tape horizontal.

Transcribed from the BELLA+CANVAS Unisex Jersey Short Sleeve V-Neck Tee BC3005 spec sheet, read September 16, 2026. Brands revise their specs; measure a sample before a large run.

What the numbers mean in practice

A quarter-inch shorter in the body than the 3001 at every size — 27 3/4″ against 28″ at S — and otherwise the same shirt through the chest.

The sheet prints the 4XL with the same body length and chest as the 3XL. That is reproduced as printed. Measure a sample if you are ordering the top size.

The V changes where a print goes. The usable area starts lower and is narrower at the top than on the 3001, so position artwork from the shoulder seam rather than from the collar, and expect a design laid out for a crew neck to sit low here.

The specialty colour groups are different fabrics, not just different dyes. Marble is 91% polyester and Slub carries rayon, so neither behaves at the press like the 100% cotton solids.

The 57 colours we stock

A distributor carries a subset of what a mill offers, so this is our range rather than the brand’s full palette — 57 colours in XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL. The spec sheet also lists 4XL, which we do not carry in this style.
