The right custom jacket manufacturer can turn your branding dream into a reality by making jackets that meet your needs. Getting your jackets made can be difficult if it is your first time. But with the following tips, things will be simpler for you.
Create a prototype
You need to create a prototype to tailor your idea as a sample to work on it. Start by designing a product sample. This is what owners choose to share with the manufacturer telling them what the product requirements are.
Sometimes, it is a complete jacket production process which means sketches are shared with the manufacturer and they choose from buttons to fabric or sometimes it is only zipping, piping or logo embroidery for the jacket.
Get a manufacturer
If you want to make a quality jacket, you should find the right custom clothing manufacturer. You need to do your due diligence to find the right manufacturer. Sometimes, designers are loathe to share their best factory experiences or details. After doing your research and getting enough information it is important to ask the right questions to determine whether the manufacturer is ready to work with you. You should ask if they are taking new customers, the types of products they produce, their manufacturing product range, their credit terms and their minimum order quantity.
Quoting the project
You should start by sending the manufacturer the drawings. A factory can be chosen out of the data collected. A drawing should be sent to the factory. Then you should get your sample done. If you are satisfied with the results, ask for quotes and see if they are within your budget.
Start the production process
After agreeing with the custom jacket manufacturer, you can give them the go-ahead to start the production process. Set clear timelines and ask whether the manufacturer will meet your needs.
