Necktie & Bow Tie Customization Program for Theater and Performance with DTG Digital Printing
Necktie & Bow Tie Solution for Theater and Performance
This programme covers the full path from a necktie & bow tie concept to a repeatable bulk supply for theater and performance. 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 theater and performance 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
- Recycled Cotton — selected for colour depth and print sharpness
- Elastane Blend — selected for colour depth and print sharpness
- Down-Proof Nylon — used when durability and abrasion resistance come first
- Alpaca — preferred for breathability in warm conditions
Decoration and finishing
The default method for this programme is DTG Digital 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.
- All-Over Sublimation
- Tonal Embroidery

FAQ
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.
What file formats do you need for artwork?
Vector files (AI, EPS, PDF) give the best print and embroidery results. For raster artwork please supply at least 300 dpi at the final print size. We digitise embroidery files in-house and return a sew-out photo for approval.
How long does sampling take?
A first prototype is typically ready in 14 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.
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.
