Custom Women's Outer Wear for the European Market in Gabardine with Stone Wash for European Corporate Uniforms

Custom Women's Outer Wear for the European Market — Gabardine with Stone Wash

We supply women's outer wear to European buyers built for mild Mediterranean winters and hot dry summers. Cloth weight, fibre composition and finish are specified for the season and the standard before price: Gabardine at 340-420 gsm, with restricted-substance screening and documentation prepared for the destination market. Programmes start at 150 pieces per style per colour and ship to Hamburg or Gdańsk.

European programmes fail on paperwork more often than on product: packaging that arrives crushed and unsellable, and suppliers who disappear once the deposit is paid. We fix the specification first — fabric weight, shrinkage, stitch density and measurement tolerance — then prepare EU GPSR with CE documentation where the line is PPE so the goods clear customs and pass buyer audit without a second round of testing.

How we produce it

1. Tech pack review and fabric confirmation for mild Mediterranean winters and hot dry summers
2. Restricted-substance screening against REACH, then lab dips for approval
3. Gabardine-spec prototype graded to Custom grading for EU fit blocks
4. Fit sample and wearer test, then a pre-production sample
5. Bulk cutting with stone wash applied under controlled settings
6. In-line inspection, final AQL 2.5 inspection and packing to EU carton specification

Sustainability and documentation

European buyers are asked for evidence, not assurances. We can supply EN 11612 heat and flame protection documentation, recycled-content claims with transaction certificates where the fibre qualifies, and test reports from accredited labs. Fibre composition, care symbols and country of origin are printed in the languages your market requires, and the technical file is held for reorders.

Delivery, duty and VAT

Shipments move to Hamburg or Gdańsk under EXW, FOB, CIF or DDP. For EU and UK destinations we quote landed cost including duty and import VAT, and provide the commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin needed for clearance. Reorders draw on the approved specification held on file, which keeps women's outer wear batches consistent across seasons.

FAQ

Do you provide compliance documents?

We can arrange OEKO-TEX, GOTS, BSCI, WRAP and ISO documentation as well as third-party testing reports for EN 11612 heat and flame protection, and we support REACH, CPSIA and Prop 65 declarations for the relevant markets.

How long does sampling take?

A first prototype is typically ready in 10 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.

What is the minimum order quantity?

Standard programmes start at 150 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.
