Get Back to Basics

It is no secret that everything comes in waves, most notably fashion. Trends will always come and go and sometimes it feels like you are always shifting items in your closet to keep up with the incoming trends faster than your wallet would like to have you admit. However, there are some fashion staples that like a young Miley Cyrus, can’t be tamed, and they simply will always work and remain classics. Wholesale basics and casual wear are always a personal closet staple, and they seem to be for others as well. So let’s get back to basics! Here at BulkApparel we love a nice blank t-shirt or basic hoodie to complete a nice outfit. Not to boast, but we kind of specialize in that. So here we have five basic apparel items to help complete any outfit.

Bella + Canvas 3001 Unisex T- Shirt

Get Back to Basics blog, wholesale Bella Canvas 3001 T-Shirt Unisex Short Sleeve Bulk Apparel

Whether it is the 1950s and James Dean has single handedly made the white tee shirt the coolest thing you could wear. Or maybe it is 2007 and you just forced your parents to buy you a 5XL tall tee, so you can follow along to Crank Dat by Soulja Boy in the proper attire (A trend that I pray everyday comes back by the way, but I digress.) Point here is there is something about a blank tee, especially white, that with the right quality and fit is just perfect. The 100% airlume combed Bella + Canvas is a favorite of many, a classic item with a modern fit.

Comfort Colors 6030 Garment Dyed Heavyweight Ringspun Short Sleeve Shirt

Get Back to Basics blog by Bulk Apparel, wholesale Comfort Colors - Garment-Dyed Heavyweight Pocket T-Shirt - 6030

Comfort Colors is one of my personal favorites for wholesale blank shirts, they have a vast amount of color options and great quality and fit. The bulk pocket tee is a nice touch to an already known classic. Any of their garment dyed pocket tees pair perfectly with old denim for a nice vintage look and outfit.

Champion S700 double Dry Eco Hooded Sweatshirt

wholesale Champion - Double Dry Eco® Hooded Sweatshirt - S700 Bulk Apparel basicsNow before anyone can say “CHAMPION! Back in my day they used to make fun of you if you wore champion!” I regret to inform you that the times are changing and your youth is fleeting. The perfect winter or spring item is a nice Champion hoodie. Check out the classic colors to rep your team for March Madness 2021! Whether paired with some jeans, or layered underneath a sport jacket, you can’t go wrong. I am not exactly sure who we should thank for resurrecting Champion, but a moment of silence for them please.

Gildan 18000 G180 Heavy Blend Crewneck

Get back to basics with BulkApparel's Gildan - Heavy Blend™ Crewneck Sweatshirt - 18000crewneck sweater is one of my favorite things to wear, it can accent an outfit a little better than a bulk hoodie can at times. The Gildan Heavy Blend is the perfect fit, the quality is unmatched, and they have a plethora of colors that can make any outfit. I personally like to layer these under a vintage workwear jacket, for a nice casual “get back to basics” look.

Jerzees 973MR NuBlend Sweatpants

wholesale JERZEES - NuBlend® Sweatpants - 973MR from BulkApparel wholesaler An item that was once frowned upon is one of the most popular items for this winter season. Why are people buying up wholesale joggers so fast?Let’s face it, comfort always takes precedence, and is there anything more comfortable than a pair of basic sweatpants? The Jerzees NuBlend Sweatpants are extremely comfortable and if done right can complete the perfect outfit, for a nice “I’m not trying, but in fact trying exceptionally hard” look. We can maybe attribute this to Kanye West for making these a sought after item, and I am not complaining. Pair these with a pair of New Balance 990 to embrace the dad that is inside all of us.

If ever there was a time to get back to basics it’s now. While we work and play from home let’s remember the little things that make us happy, like a comfy sweatsuit. Comfy is the new chic for 2021 so let’s make the most of it!
