Custom Clothing Manufacturers

You as a clothing brand, agency, sourcing/buying agent should rely on custom clothing manufacturers to do the following:

  • Make samples according to your instructions
  • Be able to recreate a garment sample you send them
  • Offer advice on how your apparel could be made more sustainably
  • Provide you with a great choice of fabrics
  • Let you visit their factories so that you can see for yourself how your product is being made

Before we dive into each of these bullet points in more detail, keep in mind that you can rely on FUSH to do all of the above, especially if you need custom activewear and sportswear. If this was enough information for you to send us an enquiry then please do so. If not, you’re welcome to read further. You’re probably interested in learning our minimum order quantity (MOQ). It’s 100 pcs/design/colour in any size.

Get Sample Garments Made from Tech Packs

Custom clothing manufacturers are textile professionals that make different clothes all the time. They almost never rely on an established template or pattern.

However, they require a tech pack or other detailed instructions before they can make and send you a sample they can be proud of.

What Is a Tech Pack?

A tech pack is a document that contains technical information about the garment you want a custom clothing manufacturer to make for you. Here’s what you can include in it:

  • Technical drawings showing front, back, and important details
  • Sizing
  • Fabrics and components (buttons, zippers, etc)
  • Quantities
  • Labelling expectations
  • Packaging expectations
  • Delivery date expectations

Ideally, you should send one to your potential production partners. But not having one shouldn’t stop you from reaching out to them. Sending an image of an existing garment you believe represents what you want yours to look like also helps.

If you’re uncertain about sizing, the manufacturer should be able to offer you one or more sizing solutions. Especially if you have a more specific target audience.

As we have been in the business since 2005, there are a couple of sizing options we can offer. Also, the vast majority of our products so far were custom apparel.
So send us an enquiry and let’s see how can we cooperate.

Custom Clothing Manufacturers Should Recreate Sample Garments You Send Them

This is a standard practice in the industry. Here are a couple of scenarios when you’d want the garment factories to work off of samples:

  1. You’re an established brand and you’re switching manufacturers. Maybe because you want to have apparel factories that work for your brand closer to your markets. You know, to reduce carbon footprint and all. 
  2. You’re a startup and you want your product to be similar to an already existing one from another brand.

In the first case, when you send a template garment to your new custom clothing manufacturer, they’ve got something tangible to draw inspiration from. That will make for an earlier mass production date, as you’re more likely to approve their first sample.

In the second case, you take a lot of guesswork out of the equation because there’s an actual product with sizes, shapes, fabrics, and details waiting to be recreated. This will enable much smoother communication between you and the manufacturer. What better start to a professional relationship?

Custom Clothing Manufacturers as Advisors

Professionals that run an operation that can make customized products should be able to offer advice on a number of topics regarding the textile industry.

Sustainability must be one of them.

For instance, what fabrics are more sustainable than others and why? What is an alternative to traditional dyeing? What natural fabrics have excellent moisture-wicking abilities? These are some of the questions your potential production partners should answer easily.

Send us an enquiry and test our ability to give advice on sustainable garment production.

Great Choice of Fabrics – Another Custom Clothing Manufacturers’ Must-Have

Ideally, this type of clothing line suppliers would be able to make fabrics on their own and as a result, offer a better choice. It’s just much easier when they only rely on themselves to get you the materials you need. 

It’s not the end of the world if they don’t but it’s a much safer option, especially during a pandemic.

Also, if they can make fabrics on their own, their involvement in the industry is deeper. Which makes them more trustworthy. So there’s one more reason to work with FUSH.

Yes, we manufacture fabrics! Organic cotton, bamboo, recycled polyester and more. Our knitting machines can make the following textures: single jersey, interlock, rib, milano rib, 2-thread fleece, ottoman, bird’s eye, french terry and many of their variations.
Fill out a super-short contact form to learn more about our fabrics options.

Apparel Manufacturers Shouldn’t Play Hide-And-Seek with You

Meaning they must be glad to let you visit their factories. If they’re weird about it, if they require unreasonable prior notice or just flat-out refuse to let you visit them, don’t work with them. They’re running a dodgy business and can only tarnish your reputation.

We at FUSH have always allowed visits to our factories. In fact, we went a step further and made the whole deal more comfortable. How – you ask? Well, we’ve built 4 apartments on factory grounds in Oraovica so that you can be fully immersed in the garment manufacturing experience. You’d even be able to have lunch with our employees in the factory canteen.

Nothing left for you but to write that enquiry now and make it the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
