Low MOQs starting at 10 pieces per design/order.

Every custom apparel project starts with defining requirements the right way. A 1:1 process helps confirm:

• Product type and intended use (teamwear, merch drops, uniforms, outerwear, boutique items)
• Fabric weight and feel (including 250–400 GSM options where applicable)
• Decoration method (embroidery, print, patches, all-over, personalization)
• Placement details (front, back, sleeve, patch zones, numbering locations)
• Sizing and quantity breakdowns
• Production timeline and delivery needs

For clients who want confidence before moving forward, fabric swatches can be shared so material, weight, and feel are confirmed upfront—no guessing and no surprises.
