Drawstring Short Customization Program for Airlines and Cruise Lines with Ruching
Drawstring Short Customization Program for Airlines and Cruise Lines
This programme covers the full path from a drawstring short concept to repeatable bulk supply for airlines and cruise lines. The build starts from everyday-casual references — drawstring short in washed denim — then locks fabric weight, wash behaviour and fit tolerance so every reorder matches the approved sample.
Most drawstring short buyers arrive with one of these problems: the fabric felt thinner than the approved sample, or wholesale costs squeezed the retail margin. The fix is a written spec before bulk: shrinkage allowance, stitch density, colour tolerance and a golden sample kept at the factory.

Quality control
Every bulk lot is compared against the approved sample for shade, hand feel, measurements and wash behaviour. Drawstring Short reorders stay comparable over time because the spec, the lab dip and the golden sample are all on file.
FAQ
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.
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.
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.
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 3 days each.
