HOW TO CUSTOMIZE YOUR SPORTSWEAR
4 steps to customize your sportswear
1. Send your inquiry
Tell us your ideas or send product pictures, URLs, design drawings, etc. We’ll confirm with you lingerie styles, colors, sizes, fabrics, accessories, and so forth in detail.
2. Develop lingerie samples
Make the sample and send it to you. You can evaluate the lingerie quality and overall effect. Tell us your suggestions. Then, we modify it.
3. Start mass production
Place an order once you approve the sample. Then, we go to mass production and production follow-up.
4. Carry out QC before shipping
Conduct AQL sampling or one-by-one inspection before your items are shipped to your place as negotiated.
MANUFACTURING PROCESS OF CUSTOM SPORTSWEAR
Design and Conceptualization:
The process begins with conceptualizing the design of the sportswear, considering factors like functionality, style, and target market preferences. Designers may use computer-aided design (CAD) software to create detailed sketches and specifications.
Material Sourcing:
Once the design is finalized, the next step is to source the appropriate materials. Manufacturers select fabrics and other materials based on factors such as performance attributes, cost, and availability. This may involve working with textile suppliers or wholesalers to procure the necessary materials.
Pattern Making and Cutting:
After obtaining the materials, patterns are created based on the design specifications. Skilled pattern makers use specialized software or manual techniques to develop patterns for each size and style of garment. Once the patterns are finalized, the fabric is laid out and cut according to the patterns.
Sewing and Assembly:
The cut pieces of fabric are then sewn together to assemble the garment. This stage involves various sewing techniques and machinery to stitch together seams, attach zippers, add elastic bands, and incorporate other design elements. Quality control checks are performed throughout the sewing process to ensure accuracy and consistency.
Embroidery and Printing:
If the sportswear requires logos, graphics, or other embellishments, embroidery or printing techniques may be used to apply these details onto the fabric. This stage adds branding and visual appeal to the garments.
Finishing Touches:
After the garments are assembled and decorated, any necessary finishing touches are made. This may include trimming loose threads, pressing the garments to remove wrinkles, and applying any additional features such as reflective strips or adjustable straps.
Quality Control:
Quality control is an essential aspect of the manufacturing process. Inspectors carefully examine each garment to ensure it meets the specified quality standards, including proper sizing, stitching, color consistency, and overall appearance.
Packaging and Labeling:
Once the garments pass quality control inspections, they are packaged and labeled for shipment. Packaging may vary depending on the distribution channel, with individual garments packaged for retail sale or bulk packaging for wholesale orders.
Shipping and Distribution:
The finished sportswear products are then shipped to distribution centers, warehouses, or directly to retailers. Manufacturers coordinate with logistics providers to ensure timely delivery of the products to their intended destinations.
Feedback and Improvement:
Finally, manufacturers gather feedback from customers, retailers, and internal teams to evaluate the performance of the sportswear and identify areas for improvement. This feedback informs future design iterations and manufacturing processes, allowing manufacturers to continually enhance their products.
Inspection of Custom Sportswear
The inspection process of sportswear is crucial to ensure that the garments meet the required quality standards before they are shipped to customers or retailers. Here's an overview of the typical inspection process:
Incoming Material Inspection:
The inspection process often begins with checking the quality of incoming materials, including fabrics, trims, and accessories. Inspectors examine the materials for defects, such as tears, stains, color discrepancies, or irregularities in texture.
Initial Production Inspection (IPI):
During the production process, inspectors conduct initial inspections to assess the quality of the first samples produced. They check for adherence to design specifications, proper stitching, accurate sizing, and any initial defects that may arise.
In-Process Inspection:
Throughout the manufacturing process, inspectors may perform in-process inspections at various stages to identify and address any issues promptly. This helps prevent defects from accumulating and ensures that corrective actions can be taken in a timely manner.
Mid-Production Inspection (MPI):
Mid-production inspections are conducted when a significant portion of the production run is completed. Inspectors assess the overall quality of the garments, including construction, stitching, alignment of patterns or graphics, and any other specific criteria outlined in the quality standards.
Final Random Inspection (FRI):
The final random inspection is carried out when the production is complete and the garments are ready for packaging. Inspectors randomly select samples from the finished goods and thoroughly examine them according to predetermined criteria. This includes checking for defects, proper sizing, color consistency, labeling accuracy, and overall appearance.
Functionality Testing:
Depending on the type of sportswear, functionality testing may be conducted to ensure that the garments perform as intended during physical activities. This may involve testing the stretch, moisture-wicking properties, durability, and other performance attributes of the fabric and construction.
Packaging Inspection:
In addition to inspecting the garments themselves, inspectors also check the packaging materials and labeling for accuracy and compliance with regulatory requirements. This includes verifying barcode information, care instructions, and any other labeling or branding elements.
Documentation and Reporting:
Throughout the inspection process, detailed records are kept of all findings, including photographs of defects, measurements, and other relevant information. Inspection reports are generated to document the results and communicate any issues to relevant stakeholders, such as production managers or quality assurance teams.
Corrective Action:
If any defects or non-conformities are identified during the inspection process, corrective action plans are implemented to address the root causes and prevent recurrence. This may involve rework, repair, or rejection of defective garments, as well as adjustments to production processes or supplier relationships to improve quality control.
Follow-Up and Continuous Improvement:
After the inspection process is complete, follow-up actions are taken to monitor the effectiveness of corrective actions and ensure ongoing compliance with quality standards. Feedback from inspections is used to identify opportunities for continuous improvement in manufacturing processes, supplier management, and quality assurance practices.
