Our gym T-shirts minimum order quantity is 100 pieces per style, and sizes from XS to 3XL can be mixed within those 100. A sample comes first, then an advance payment starts production, and the balance is paid before dispatch; lead time is confirmed in your quotation rather than given as a fixed figure, because it depends on your fabric, colours, branding and quantity.
Below is how each part works in practice, and what you can do to keep an order moving.
What “100 pieces per style” means
A style is one garment type in one fabric: for example, a training T-shirt in polyester-elastane. Within that style:
- sizes can be mixed freely from XS to 3XL;
- more than one colour can be ordered, with the colour split confirmed at quotation based on the fabric options and your quantities;
- one logo setup usually applies across the style.
If you want the same training T-shirt in polyester knit as well, that is a second style with its own minimum. The same goes for a sleeveless top or a long-sleeve top.
Examples
| Order | Styles | Meets the minimum? |
|---|---|---|
| 100 training T-shirts, polyester knit, three colours, XS to 3XL | 1 | Yes |
| 60 training T-shirts and 40 sleeveless tops | 2 | No, each style needs 100 |
| 100 training T-shirts and 100 long-sleeve tops, same fabric | 2 | Yes |
| 150 sleeveless tops, polyester-elastane, two colours | 1 | Yes |
If you are unsure whether your plan meets the minimum, describe it and we will tell you. A common solution for a small budget is to put the whole quantity into one style and spread it across colours and sizes, rather than splitting it thinly across several styles. You learn more from one style in a full size run than from three styles with gaps.
How samples work
A sample lets you check fabric, fit, colour and branding before committing to bulk production. We make the style you choose, in the fabric and colour you want, with your branding applied where possible.
When the sample arrives:
- Try it on people of the right size, and move in it.
- Measure it against the size chart.
- Wash it once and check again.
- Check the logo, neck branding, care label and hang tag.
- Send us your comments, or your approval.
Once you approve it, the sample becomes the reference for the full order and for our quality check. If something needs to change, we discuss it at this stage, when changes are simple. Our page on minimum order and samples has more on sampling across our range.
The order process, step by step
Every order follows the same path:
- Enquiry. You send styles, fabric, colours, quantities, branding and packing.
- Quotation. We quote per style, by fabric, quantity and branding, with lead time, shipping method, terms and documents confirmed.
- Sample. We make it; you check and approve it.
- Advance payment. This starts production.
- Production. Cutting, sewing, branding and finishing.
- Quality check. Against the approved sample, before packing.
- Balance payment. Paid before dispatch.
- Dispatch. Packed to your specification and shipped as agreed.
What affects lead time
Lead time is confirmed in the quotation because several things change it:
- fabric and colour availability for your chosen options;
- the number of styles and colours in the order;
- the branding methods and the number of logo positions;
- packing requirements, such as individual bags and stickers;
- how quickly artwork and sample approval come back.
The last point is the one you control most. An order with final artwork ready at enquiry and quick sample feedback moves more smoothly than one where the logo is still being designed.
A few habits help on your side:
- send vector logo artwork with colours and sizes at enquiry;
- agree care label and hang tag text before the sample is made;
- give one person the job of approving the sample, so feedback comes back in one message;
- confirm the size split promptly after sample approval.
Planning around your own dates
If you have a launch, an event or a new season for an academy, tell us the date when you enquire. We will tell you in the quotation whether it is realistic. Count back from your date, allowing time for the sample, your approval, production, our quality check, shipping and your own receiving.
For reorders, plan before stock runs out. Our guide to what changes the gym T-shirt price per piece also explains how quantity per style affects cost, which helps when sizing a reorder.
