CUT & SEW MANUFACTURING
Cut and sew manufacturer for streetwear built from scratch
Your pattern, your fit, your fabric. We take a tech pack, a sketch, or a garment you love and build it from the roll up, on our own floor in Sialkot.
Three ways to make apparel
Cutting and sewing, blank printing, and private labeling are not the same thing
These three terms get mixed up constantly. Knowing which one you need saves weeks of emails with the wrong kind of supplier.
| Question | Blank printing | Cut and sew | Private label |
|---|---|---|---|
| What it is | Buying a finished blank and decorating it | Building the garment itself, from fabric to finished piece | Putting your brand, and only yours, on the garment |
| Who decides the fit | The blank maker | You | You, or our house block on white label |
| Fabric | Whatever the blank uses | Chosen for your garment | Depends on how it’s built |
| Can a competitor buy the same piece? | Yes | No | Not with your label |
How the two services fit together
Cutting and sewing is how a garment gets built. Private label is whose name goes on it. Most of our brands use both: we cut and sew their design, then finish it with their labels, tags, and packaging.
On the floor
Six stages from fabric roll to finished garment
01 Pattern making
Your garment is drafted as a paper or digital pattern from your tech pack, your sketch, or a reference piece you send us.
02 Grading
The base pattern is scaled into your size range in even steps, so every size keeps the same proportions.
03 Marker planning
Pattern pieces are laid out on the fabric width to use as much of the roll as possible, which keeps your fabric cost down.
04 Cutting
Pre-shrunk knit fabric is spread in layers and cut to the marker. Colors for a set are cut from one dye lot.
05 Sewing
Panels move along the line to be joined, with ribs, pockets, zips, hardware, and labels added at their stage.
06 Finishing and inspection
Garments are trimmed, washed if the style needs it, pressed and checked one by one, then audited before packing.
How your order moves through these stages, and when you approve each step, is covered in how it works.
Your construction choices
The details of a blank never let you choose
With cut and sew, every construction detail is a decision you make, not one you inherit. These are the ones that change how a garment looks and lasts.
| Detail | Your options | See it on |
|---|---|---|
| Silhouette | Regular, slim, boxy, oversized, or cropped, graded to your range | Boxy tees, crop hoodies |
| Shoulders and sleeves | Set-in or dropped shoulders, cuffed or open sleeves | Pullover hoodies |
| Seams | Overlocked, flatlocked, topstitched, with bar-tacks where stress lands | Cargo pants |
| Panels | Color blocking, contrast inserts, and side stripes | Color-block hoodies |
| Pockets and closures | Kangaroo, cargo, and zip pockets; YKK zips, snaps, and drawcords | Full-zip hoodies |
| Linings and fill | Mesh, taffeta, quilted, or unlined, with fill weights for outerwear | Puffer jackets |
Why build from scratch
What changes when the garment is yours from the first cut
| Factor | A decorated blank | A cut-and-sew garment |
|---|---|---|
| Fit | Designed for everyone, so it fits no one in particular | Patterned for your customer |
| Fabric | Chosen for the blank maker’s price | Chosen from our fabric library for your product |
| Details | Whatever the blank comes with | Every seam, pocket and trim to your spec |
| Reorders | Depend on the blank staying in stock | Your pattern stays on file |
| Price at 50 pieces | Lower | Higher, but for a product that’s actually yours |
A blank decides your fit for you
When your hoodie is a printed blank, your brand’s fit belongs to someone else, and any competitor can order the same garment tomorrow. The fit is the one thing customers notice every time they wear it. Owning the pattern is how you own that.
Getting started
Three ways to start a cut-and-sew order
A tech pack
Flat sketches, a measurement chart, fabric and trim choices, and artwork placements. The fastest route to an accurate quote. Tech pack guide
A reference garment
A piece whose fit you like. We take its pattern, then change what you want changed in the fit sample.
A sketch or a photo
Together we write it up as a full spec, and nothing is sampled until you’ve agreed on every line.
Categories
Everything we cut and sew
Six product categories on one floor, so a collection can be built together and shipped together.
Cut-and-sew questions
What does cut and sew mean?
It means the garment is made from scratch: fabric is cut from the roll to your pattern and sewn into a finished piece, instead of starting from a ready-made blank.
How is cut and sew different from private label?
Cut and sew describes how the garment is built. “Private label” describes whose brand is on it. Most brands use both: a cut-and-sew garment finished with their own labels and packaging.
What's the minimum for a cut-and-sew order?
Most garments start at 50 pieces per style and tracksuits at 50 sets, split across your colorways and sizes. Sewn caps need 100
Do I need a tech pack?
It helps, but it isn’t required. A reference garment or a clear sketch is enough, and we’ll build the written spec with you.
How long does cut and sew take?
Sampling takes 7-10 days per round on most styles. After you approve the pre-production sample, bulk takes 18-30 days on most orders. Jackets take 4-8 weeks, and washed, dyed, or color-block styles take 3-7 weeks.
