1、 Project Brief & Requirements
Tell us your product type, intended use, target quantity and delivery date. Share a tech pack, reference sample or images so we can review the development requirements.
2、 Fabric & Trim Selection
Review fabrics for breathability, drying performance, stretch and garment weight. Match trims, labels and reflective details to the running style and your budget.
3、 Pattern Making & Sampling
Develop the pattern and first sample around your size specifications. Check the garment’s shape, movement allowance, seam placement and branding before approval.
4、 Sample Review & Approval
Review fit, fabric feel, measurements and artwork placement. Confirm any revisions and approve the final sample and specifications before bulk production.
5、 Bulk Production
Production follows the approved sample and order specifications. In-process checks cover measurements, stitching, decoration and consistency across the order.
6、 Final Inspection & Packing
Check finished garments against the agreed requirements, including sizing, workmanship, labels and quantities. Pack the order according to your confirmed instructions.
Design & Sampling for Running Apparel
A running garment needs more than the right appearance. Fabric weight, fit and construction all affect how it feels in motion. Our development support helps you review these details before committing to a bulk order.
🧵 1、Technical Design Support
Define the measurements, panel layout, seam construction and functional details for your running style. We review your brief and identify points that need clarification before sampling.
👕 2、Artwork & Color Planning
Review color combinations, print layouts and logo positions before making the sample. Check artwork dimensions and placement against the garment’s panels and size range.
✂️ 3、Prototype & Fit Samples
Use a physical sample to assess fabric feel, fit and freedom of movement. Review details such as armholes, waistbands, hems and pocket placement for the intended running use.
🔄 4、Revisions & Production Specifications
Record the agreed changes to fit, materials, artwork and trims. Confirm the approved sample and updated specifications as the reference for bulk production.
