Short-sleeve styles, in lightweight fabrics led by cotton, Modal, Viscose, nylon and polyester.

Autumn / Winter

Long-sleeve styles, in heavier fabrics led by cotton, Modal and Viscose.

FabricGSMSeasonCharacter

Pique fabric180-240Spring / SummerFor regular short-sleeve polos, with relatively little variation.

Pique fabric260-350Autumn / WinterAutumn and winter styles can take heavier fabrics, which brings more substance and a wider range of choices.

05 — Quality

Quality comes first

We treat quality as a fixed requirement rather than something that flexes with the price we are asked to hit. We prefer to supply a stronger garment at a comparable price instead of trimming the specification to chase a cheaper quote.

Material approval

Weight, color performance, handfeel and compliance signed off ahead of bulk cutting, not found out on arrival.

Cut and sew control

Alignment, construction accuracy and workmanship managed panel by panel along the line.

Checks during production

Problems identified while the run is ongoing, not picked out afterwards.

Pre-shipment audit

AQL 2.5 random inspection, results logged before the goods leave. Same benchmark on re-orders.

06 — Cost

What drives your unit price

Five variables decide almost every quote on this lane. Knowing them before you write in saves a full round of emails.

Fabric and GSM

Heavier cloth costs more per kilo and takes longer to sew. The GSM band you pick moves both price and lead time.

Quantity per style / color

Development cost spreads over more units. Below the threshold, setup charges dominate the unit price.

Decoration complexity

Each added operation — print, embroidery, wash — adds cost and another place for defects to appear.

Base selection

China quotes faster with a lower MOQ; Bangladesh wins on unit cost once a style repeats at volume.

Trims and packaging

Custom labels, drawcords, hangtags and branded polybags add sourcing time, sometimes more than the garment.
