The V-Neck That Gets the Blend Right.
The Next Level Apparel 6240 Men's CVC V-Neck Tee is built around the perfect 60/40 balance. Sixty percent combed ring-spun cotton for softness and breathability. Forty percent polyester for shape retention, wrinkle resistance, and faster drying. Every color carries a slightly heathered look — a subtle, multi-tonal texture that gives each shade more depth and visual interest than a flat-dyed alternative. Five cool-toned colorways. 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.
Collar: 1x1 CVC baby rib set-in collar — a finer, softer rib knit than standard rib, creating a collar that's 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. Tear-away label for a clean, tag-free wear experience.
Color Moods
Midnight Navy — Deep, rich navy with a dark, moody quality. The heathered texture adds dimension and visual depth to a classic color — more interesting than solid navy, just as versatile. The V-neck that anchors any outfit and makes everything around it look sharper.
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.
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 — the sophisticated alternative to solid black.
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.
