Custom Ethnic Gloves & Mittens in Chiffon with Screen Printing for Travel and Resort Collections

Custom Ethnic Gloves & Mittens — Chiffon with Screen Printing

We make ethnic gloves & mittens built around west african adinkra symbols, produced in Chiffon with Screen Printing. Ethnic accessory programmes fail on the details: bead count per motif, stitch density, trim weight and colour matching all have to hold across a repeat order, so we set them in the tech pack and confirm them on a sample before bulk. Programmes start at 100 pieces per style per colour and ship to Los Angeles or New York.

The failures here are predictable: unclear responsibility when a defect shows up after washing, and long lead times that miss the selling season. We lock the specification before bulk — materials, trim attachment strength, dye lot and tolerance — and prepare CPSIA so shipments clear instead of sitting at port while the summer festival season passes.

Import, duty and delivery

CPSIA and California Prop 65 compliance is arranged before the goods leave the factory. We ship to Los Angeles or New York with the commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, and quote landed cost so duty and tax are visible before you commit. Reorders draw on the approved specification held on file — which matters when you are buying against the summer festival season.

FAQ

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 4 days each.

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.

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.

Do you provide compliance documents?

We can arrange OEKO-TEX, GOTS, BSCI, WRAP and ISO documentation as well as third-party testing reports for REACH nickel-release test for metal findings, and we support REACH, CPSIA and Prop 65 declarations for the relevant markets.
