Knitting Apparel Customization Program for Retail Store Staff with Puff Printing

Knitting Apparel Solution for Retail Store Staff

This programme covers the full path from a knitting apparel concept to a repeatable bulk supply for retail store staff. Instead of buying whatever a catalogue happens to stock, you specify the cloth, the fit block, the decoration method and the packing, and we hold that specification so every reorder matches the last one.

The most common failure we see in retail store staff sourcing is not price — it is drift. Fabric changes supplier, the shade moves, sizing shifts half a grade and the programme quietly stops looking like the brand. We prevent that with a written spec, an approved counter sample and a golden sample retained at the factory.

Recommended fabrics

• Rayon — chosen when the garment needs to hold shape after repeated laundering
• Lambswool — selected for colour depth and print sharpness
• Twill — chosen when the garment needs to hold shape after repeated laundering
• French Terry — preferred for breathability in warm conditions

Decoration and finishing

The default method for this programme is Puff Printing, but we routinely combine processes on one garment. Placement, colour count and position drives cost more than the garment itself, so we quote decoration separately and show you the trade-off before sampling.

• Distressed Finish
• Screen Printing
• Bonding Construction
• Contrast Stitching
• Acid Wash
• Custom Zip Puller

FAQ

What is the minimum order quantity?

Standard programmes start at 100 pieces per style and colour. We can split sizes across a size set, and for first orders we often accept a mixed-colour run to help you test the market.

Can you match a specific colour?

Yes. Send us a Pantone TCX reference or a physical swatch. We return lab dips for approval and hold bulk shade within the agreed tolerance band before cutting.

How is shipping handled?

We quote EXW, FOB, CIF and DDP. Consolidated sea freight is the default for bulk programmes, with air or express options when a launch date is at risk.

How long does sampling take?

A first prototype is typically ready in 7 working days after the tech pack is confirmed, including fabric sourcing if the base cloth is not in our stock library. Revisions add about 5 days each.
