Each jogger, sweatpant or shorts style needs 100 pieces, and in a tracksuit set the top and the bottoms each count as a style, so a set needs 100 tops and 100 bottoms. Sizes can be mixed within each style, and the lead time is confirmed in your quotation rather than fixed in advance.
Most questions about our tracksuit minimum order and samples come down to how a set is counted, how colours are split and what the sample has to show. This post answers those, then walks through the order steps from enquiry to dispatch.
How the minimum is counted
Our white label joggers range is knitwear, so the minimum is 100 pieces per style.
- One style is one garment in one fabric. French terry joggers and fleece joggers are two styles.
- Sizes can be mixed. Split the 100 pieces across S to 3XL as you like.
- Colours can be mixed. More than one colour can go into a style. The colour split is confirmed in your quotation, as it depends on the fabric and colours.
- Sets count per piece. A zip jacket and joggers in matching fabric are two styles, each at 100 pieces. So are a pullover top and shorts.
Example first orders
| Order | Styles | Minimum pieces |
|---|---|---|
| One jogger in black and grey | 1 | 100 |
| Joggers and shorts, same fabric | 2 | 200 |
| Tracksuit set: zip jacket and joggers | 2 | 200 (100 tops, 100 bottoms) |
| Tracksuit set plus shorts | 3 | 300 |
For a set, keep the size split of the top and bottoms close, so you are not left with spare tops in one size and spare bottoms in another. Some buyers wear different sizes top and bottom, so the splits do not have to match exactly.
What the sample is for
Before bulk, we make a sample in your chosen style and fabric, with your branding where possible. For a tracksuit set, we sample both pieces so you can see them together.
Check:
- Waist fit and how the elastic and drawcord feel.
- Rise: front and back, and how the joggers sit on the body.
- Leg shape and length; cuff tightness on joggers, hem on sweatpants.
- Pocket depth and position.
- Colour match between top and bottoms in a set.
- Logo position and size, waistband label and wash-care label.
Write each change as a clear line with a measurement or reference. We confirm changes before production. Once you approve the sample, bulk production follows it. Sample terms are confirmed in your quotation. Our minimum order and samples page explains samples across our range.
The order steps
Every order follows the same sequence:
- Enquiry. You send the styles, fabric, colours, quantity per size and branding.
- Quotation. We quote each style and confirm sample terms, lead time and shipping.
- Sample. We make it; you check and approve or request changes.
- Advance payment. This books production.
- Production. Fabric, cutting, sewing, branding and finishing.
- Quality check. Every order is checked before packing.
- Dispatch. You pay the balance before dispatch, and we ship.
What decides the lead time
We confirm lead time in your quotation because it depends on the order itself:
- the fabric and whether your colour needs dyeing;
- how many styles and colours are in the order;
- matching colour between the top and bottoms of a set;
- branding: embroidery on two pieces of a set takes more time than one printed label;
- details such as zip pockets, contrast panels or side stripes;
- how quickly the sample is approved;
- the packing specification, especially if sets are packed together.
If you have a season or launch date in mind, include it in your first message and we will tell you whether it is realistic.
Shipping and packing
We take enquiries from buyers worldwide. Shipping method, terms and documents are confirmed in the quotation. Tell us where the stock is going and how it will be sold. Sets can be packed together in one bag or separately by size. If you sell on a marketplace, send its current packing specification, which you confirm with the marketplace, and we pack to it. Our post on waistband labels, tags and set packaging covers the packing options in detail.
Reorders
Once a style has been made and approved, a reorder repeats the same spec. You can shift the size ratio, add a colour from the fabric options or change the packing, and each reorder style still needs 100 pieces. Keep a note of your approved sample reference and send it with the reorder. If your first order was a set, check your sales by size for tops and bottoms separately before you reorder. It is common for one half of a set to sell through faster in certain sizes, and the reorder is the moment to correct the split.
To start, send us the styles, fabric, colours, quantity per size, branding and destination. If you want a set, say which top and which bottoms, and we will quote each piece.
