Custom production

Custom clothing manufacturer for garments that are truly yours

When a standard style will not do, we develop your garment from scratch: your fabric, your fit, your construction details and finishes. You bring a tech pack, sketches or a reference garment; we bring pattern making, sampling and production in our own factories, from 10 pieces per style.

From idea to production-ready garment

Custom production starts with whatever you have. A complete tech pack is ideal: measurements, fabrics, trims and construction in one document that the factory can quote precisely. But a clear sketch or a reference garment with your changes marked works too; we translate it into a production specification together before anything is cut.

Then comes the sample, typically ready in 2 to 3 weeks. This is where fit, fabric hand feel and finishing are judged on a real garment instead of on paper. Revisions happen at the sample stage, not in bulk. Only after your approval does production start, with a lead time of 1 to 6 weeks depending on the style and volume.

What custom production costs

As an indication at a tier of 50 pieces, excluding VAT, from-prices run from €12 for a t-shirt to €45 for a blazer, with sweaters from €22, joggers from €24, hoodies from €25 and jackets from €33 in between. Fabric weight, construction complexity and branding determine where your garment lands in that range; your quote states the exact price for your specification.

The production country is a choice we make together per project: Turkey for strong cotton at a sharp price, Portugal for EU production in small premium runs, Italy for high-end finishes such as garment dye, China for large runs with complex branding. Audit reports such as BSCI and GOTS-certified cotton are available on request.

  3. 03

    Production

    Bulk production in the agreed factory, 1 to 6 weeks depending on style and volume, with quality control before shipping.

  4. 04

    Delivery

    Your garments are delivered labelled and packed, ready to sell.

Everything is up for specification

  • Fabric and weight

    From lightweight jersey to heavy fleece: the fabric and its GSM are chosen per design, matched to the product you have in mind.

  • Fit and pattern

    Patterns developed to your measurements: oversized, boxy, cropped or classic, graded across your size range.

  • Construction and finishes

    Seam types, ribbing, cuffs, zippers, washes and dye treatments, specified in the tech pack and checked on the sample.

  • Branding

    Woven labels, prints, embroidery and hangtags applied during production, so the delivered garment is fully yours.
