The V-Neck That Gets the Blend Right.
The Next Level Apparel 6240 Men's CVC V-Neck Tee is built around one idea: the perfect 60/40 blend. Sixty percent combed ring-spun cotton for softness and breathability. Forty percent polyester for shape retention, wrinkle resistance, and faster drying. The result is a V-neck tee that feels like cotton, performs like a blend, and looks slightly heathered in every color — giving each shade a subtle, multi-tonal depth that flat-dyed tees can't replicate. Eleven colors. True-to-size fit. This is the everyday V-neck done right.
Construction Deep-Dive
Fabric: 4.3 oz. 60% combed ring-spun cotton / 40% polyester CVC jersey — CVC stands for Chief Value Cotton, meaning cotton is the dominant fiber. Combed ring-spun cotton is made by first combing out short fibers and impurities, then ring-spinning the remaining long fibers into a tighter, smoother yarn. The result is a softer, more durable fabric than standard cotton. The 40% polyester adds wrinkle resistance, shape retention, and moisture management without sacrificing the soft, natural feel of the cotton majority.
Heathered Effect: All colors have a slightly heathered look — achieved by blending differently colored fibers before spinning. This gives every colorway a subtle, multi-tonal texture and visual depth that makes the tee look more interesting and premium than a flat-dyed alternative. No two tees look exactly alike, which is part of the appeal.
Collar: 1x1 CVC baby rib set-in collar — the baby rib construction uses a finer, tighter rib knit than standard rib, creating a collar that's softer, more refined, and less bulky. The CVC blend in the collar matches the body fabric for a cohesive, seamless look. Set-in construction means the collar sits cleanly at the neckline without pulling or distorting.
Construction: Pre-shrunk fabric for consistent sizing wash after wash. Sideseamed construction creates a tailored silhouette that follows the body's shape rather than hanging straight. Tear-away label for a clean, tag-free wear experience.
Color Moods
Mint — Soft, cool green with a fresh, clean energy. The color that feels like a deep breath of cool air — light, airy, and effortlessly easy to wear. The heathered texture gives Mint a subtle depth that makes it feel more sophisticated than a standard pastel.
Military Green — Muted, utilitarian olive-green with a grounded, outdoorsy confidence. The heathered texture adds a worn-in quality that makes this color feel authentic and intentional. Pairs with khaki, black, and natural tones.
Midnight Navy — Deep, rich navy with a dark, moody quality. The heathered texture adds dimension to the darkest blue in the lineup — more interesting than solid navy, just as versatile. The V-neck that anchors any outfit.
Ice Blue — Soft, cool blue with a crisp, wintry freshness. The heathered texture gives Ice Blue a subtle depth that makes it feel more premium than a standard light blue. The color that pairs with white, grey, and navy for a clean, cohesive look.
Black — The foundation. Black in a CVC blend with a slightly heathered texture — more dimensional than solid black, just as versatile. The V-neck you'll reach for on autopilot.
Banana Cream — Warm, soft yellow with a creamy, vintage glow. The heathered texture gives Banana Cream a muted, sophisticated quality that keeps it from reading as too bright or too sweet. The color of golden hour light in a tee.
White — Clean, bright white with a subtle heathered texture that adds visual interest without compromising the crispness. The blank canvas of the lineup — pairs with everything, works everywhere.
Turquoise — Bright, saturated blue-green with tropical energy. The heathered texture softens the vibrancy just enough to make it wearable in any context — bold without being aggressive, fresh without being loud.
Red — Bold, saturated red with energy and presence. The heathered texture gives the red a slightly worn-in quality that makes it feel more authentic and less synthetic than a flat-dyed red. The V-neck that makes a statement.
Dark Heather Gray — Deep, cool grey with a rich heathered texture. The color that goes with everything and makes everything look better. The everyday essential that never gets old — the V-neck you'll wear more than you planned.
Charcoal — Medium-dark grey with a warm, slightly earthy undertone. The neutral that sits between grey and black and belongs entirely to itself. Understated, versatile, and endlessly wearable.
