Our streetwear outerwear minimum order is 300 pieces per style, with sizes mixed across S to 3XL. Cargo pants, jackets, overshirts and denim are woven garments with more trims and steps than knitwear, which is why the minimum is higher and why the quote needs more detail.
This post explains how the minimum is counted, what a quote request for streetwear needs, how the sample works, and what decides the lead time. Everything here applies to the styles in our white label streetwear range.
How the 300-piece minimum works
Streetwear outerwear sits in our specialised band. The rules are:
- One style is one garment in one fabric. A twill cargo pant and a nylon cargo pant are two styles.
- Sizes can be mixed. Split 300 pieces across S to 3XL in whatever ratio suits your buyers.
- Colours and shades can be mixed. You can order more than one colour or denim shade in a style. The colour split is confirmed in your quotation, as it depends on the fabric.
- Trims and branding apply to the style. If you want different trims on different colours, tell us; it is listed in the quote.
Example first orders
| Order | Styles | Minimum pieces |
|---|---|---|
| Twill cargo pants in black and olive | 1 | 300 |
| Twill overshirt in two colours | 1 | 300 |
| Cargo pants and a matching twill jacket | 2 | 600 |
| Denim jacket in two washes | 1 (wash split confirmed at quotation) | 300 |
The minimum is higher than for knitwear because woven pieces have more cutting, more parts and more trims, and these are planned per style.
What to put in a quote request
For a T-shirt, style, fabric and colour are most of the brief. Streetwear needs more. Send:
- Style: cargo pants, jacket, overshirt or denim piece.
- Fabric: cotton twill, denim or nylon.
- Colours or wash: with a reference photo for any wash or finish.
- Quantity per size and colour.
- Pocket layout: for cargo pants especially, the number and position of pockets. A sketch or reference is enough.
- Trims: buttons, zips and pullers, rivets, drawcords, toggles. Say which you want branded.
- Branding: neck or waistband label, wash-care label, hang tag, embroidery, woven patch, screen print.
- Packing and barcodes.
- Destination country, as labelling requirements vary by country.
The more of this you send, the closer the first quote will be to the final one. If you are not sure on a point, say so and we will suggest options.
Reference photos work well for streetwear. Send a front, back and detail shot of each piece you like, and write one line on what you like about it: the pocket shape, the collar, the wash, the length. That tells us which details matter to you and which are only part of the photo. If you send several references for one style, say which one is closest to what you want.
How the sample works
We make a sample in your chosen style and fabric, with your branding and trims where possible. For streetwear, the sample is where most decisions are confirmed, so check it carefully:
- fit through the body, shoulders, seat and leg;
- the wash or finish against your reference;
- zips: they run smoothly and lie flat;
- pockets: size, position, flaps and closures;
- stitching: even, secure, no skipped stitches;
- trims: branded where agreed, attached firmly;
- labels and patches: position and wording.
List any changes clearly with measurements or reference photos. We confirm each change before production. Once you approve the sample, bulk production follows it. Sample terms are confirmed in your quotation. Our minimum order and samples page covers samples across our range.
From enquiry to dispatch
Every order follows the same steps: enquiry, quotation, sample, advance payment, production, quality check and dispatch. The advance starts production and the balance is due before dispatch. Every order passes our quality check before it is packed.
What decides the lead time
We confirm lead time in your quotation, because streetwear orders vary a great deal. The main factors:
- fabric, and whether your colour needs to be dyed;
- washes and finishes on denim and twill;
- trims, especially branded buttons, rivets and zip pulls, which are made for your order;
- the number of pockets and construction details;
- embroidery and patches;
- how many styles and colours are in the order;
- how quickly the sample is approved.
If you have a drop date in mind, tell us in your first message and we will say whether it is realistic.
Shipping and packing
We take enquiries from buyers worldwide. Shipping method, terms and documents are confirmed in the quotation. Jackets and cargo pants are bulkier than knitwear, so packing affects carton count. Tell us whether you want each piece folded in a polybag with a size sticker and barcode, or bulk-packed for re-packing at your end.
Send us your references and the details above, even if some are still open. We will review them, ask about anything missing and send a quotation for each style.
