FAQ
Straight answers on orders, samples, timing and quality. Anything else, just ask.
We are your manufacturing partner, working with a network of audited knit factories rather than a single one. We place your order with the factory best suited to it, then manage sampling, production, quality, compliance and delivery as your one accountable partner.
MOQ is flexible. It depends on the product type, fabric and decoration. Tell us your quantities and we will suggest the most practical route.
Yes. Samples are free for serious inquiries. We want you to confirm handfeel, fit, finishing and quality before you commit to bulk.
Sample development usually takes 7–21 days. Bulk production usually takes 45–90 days, depending on order complexity and material availability.
