American Apparel

American Apparel is the OG of fashion basics—slim-fitting, soft-feel, and street-ready. With its roots in LA’s indie culture, the brand became a worldwide phenomenon known for its commitment to quality, ethical labor, and minimalist designs. These blanks are ideal for bold, expressive brands and merch creators who want iconic fit, premium feel, and timeless design appeal.

Founded in 1989 by Dov Charney, American Apparel was built on a vision of vertically integrated, sweatshop-free manufacturing in downtown Los Angeles. Its provocative marketing and ultra-soft basics redefined what blank apparel could be. Though it filed for bankruptcy in 2015, the brand was reborn in 2017 under Gildan’s ownership, maintaining its core product DNA while shifting into an online-first model.

Today, American Apparel continues to produce fashion-forward blank garments, with many still made or assembled in North America.
