Sportswear Manufacturing

Get custom matched with reliable sportswear manufacturers. Develop, produce, and ship in one easy-to-use app.

High-quality sportswear manufacturing, without the hassle

Your production process in one platform

It doesn’t have to be so difficult. From sourcing fabric, developing samples, through importing production orders, MakeMine manages the entire process. Everything is visible from our online hub so you can check on progress then get back to designing your next sportswear collection.

Trusted sportswear manufacturers

We’ve built a network of sportswear manufacturers because being forced to attend tradeshows or scour through online factory marketplaces is unacceptable. Instead, you can use cut and sew factories that we’ve personally met and produced for other fashion brands.

Dedicated sourcing partners

Developing new styles is a time-consuming and grueling process. Hiring experts is not the way most growing sportswear brands wish to spend their limited budget. So we built an app to provide sourcing and production services with dedicated sourcing experts ready to step in as needed.

Start small, scale to wholesale

Our small batch cut and sew manufacturer in China allows you to easily launch new sportswear lines without overspending. If you land wholesale opportunities or your staple lines take off, we have nearshore manufacturing partners in Peru and other options in Asia like South Korea and Vietnam.

Quality without manual headaches

Our proven production process includes approvals throughout every step and a unified source of data for all parties involved. Our process include standards around sampling (fabric, fit, and prototype), production checks, inspections, optional lab testing, and shipping and packing guidelines.

Factory communication on your behalf

Gone are the days of late night video calls and messages. No more wakeup calls to inexcusable delays from your cut and sew factory or importing hiccups from mismanaged logistics. We’ll take over coordination and communication while keeping you in the loop as much as you’d prefer.

Frequently asked questions

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

Our minimum order quantities (MOQs) begin at 100 units per style/color. We partner with sportswear manufacturers in key markets such as China, South Korea, Vietnam, Peru, Honduras, and the USA to negotiate the best pricing and MOQs. Representing multiple clients allows us to secure lower MOQs and prioritize your production needs. While some automated sourcing platforms claim to offer lower costs and MOQs, they often fall short on quality, prioritize larger orders, and make it difficult to engage directly with manufacturers.

Where are your cut and sew manufacturers located?

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

What are your lead times for sportswear manufacturing?

Generally, we require 14-20 days for sample production and 40-70 days for full production runs. Lead times for sportswear manufacturing can vary based on the complexity of the designs, the capabilities of the manufacturers, and whether the materials are locally sourced or imported.

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

We manage all communication with the manufacturers on your behalf, so you can focus on expanding your business. Our sportswear manufacturers are transparent, and you’ll always know the name of your cut-and-sew factory as well as our primary point of contact. However, we take care of all communications, which simplifies the process by providing one centralized contact (MakeMine), improving efficiency and speeding up production timelines.

How do you vet the sportswear manufacturers you work with?

Our team of industry veterans meets face-to-face with all of our sportswear manufacturers to carry out detailed inspections and audits with QIMA (quality inspections). This process ensures each manufacturer meets our rigorous quality standards before we partner with them.

Do you charge for samples from your sportswear manufacturers?

We charge a factory cost for samples when working with new customers, typically around $50 per sample. After establishing a consistent order history, we may apply credits toward future orders when you place a purchase order with the cut-and-sew factory.
