Frequently asked questions

What are your MOQs (minimum order quantities) for athleisure?

Our minimum order quantities (MOQs) start at 100 units per style/color. We partner with top athleisure manufacturers in locations like China, South Korea, Vietnam, Peru, Honduras, and the USA to provide the best pricing and flexible MOQs. By working with multiple clients, we’re able to negotiate lower MOQs and prioritize your production needs. While automated sourcing platforms may offer seemingly low prices and MOQs, they often sacrifice quality, neglect smaller brands, and make direct communication with manufacturers difficult.

Where are your cut-and-sew manufacturers located?

Our cut-and-sew athleisure manufacturers are located in China, Honduras, Peru, South Korea, and Vietnam.

What are your lead times for athleisure manufacturing?

Lead times for athleisure manufacturing generally range from 14-20 days for sample production and 40-70 days for full production. These timelines can vary based on the design complexity, manufacturer capabilities, and whether materials are sourced locally or internationally.

Do I communicate directly with the manufacturers, or do you manage the process?

We handle all communications with the athleisure manufacturers for you, allowing you to focus on scaling your business. While you'll know the name of your cut-and-sew manufacturer and our primary point of contact, we manage all day-to-day interactions. This streamlined approach centralizes communication and improves efficiency by providing a single point of contact (MakeMine), allowing you to avoid unnecessary back-and-forth.

How do you vet the athleisure manufacturers you work with?

Our experienced team personally visits and inspects each athleisure manufacturer, performing comprehensive audits in collaboration with QIMA (quality inspections). This ensures that every manufacturer we partner with adheres to our high-quality standards and ethical practices before production begins.

Do you charge for samples from your athleisure manufacturers?

We charge factory cost for samples when working with new clients, typically around $50 per sample. After a client has established a consistent order history, we may offer credits toward future orders once a purchase order is placed with the cut-and-sew factory.
