Who we make jackets for

A jacket is the highest-priced piece in most collections. These are the brands that need it built properly.

Streetwear brands completing a collection

You already sell hoodies and tees. A jacket sized to layer over them, in the same color language, turns a drop into a full collection.

Hoodies to layer under

Varsity, club, and heritage labels

Melton wool bodies, leather or PU sleeves, and chenille lettering and crests made in-house. The varsity jacket is a real piece of craft.

Private label with Gibben

Outerwear and technical brands

Puffers with a specified fill weight, ripstop and taffeta shells, coach jackets, and windbreakers with YKK hardware.

Which jacket suits your drop

Shells, Fills & Linings

Outerwear is a three-layer spec

Every jacket is a shell, a fill, and a lining specified together; that’s what separates outerwear manufacturing from cut-and-sew fleece. Our standard range is below; we source outside it against your tech pack.

Layer Options Used for
Nylon/poly taffeta shell 60-90gsm, matte or sheen, DWR optional Puffers, coach jackets, windbreakers, nylon shells
Ripstop shell Grid-reinforced nylon Technical puffers and shells
Satin shell Poly satin, high sheen Satin bombers, souvenir-jacket builds
Melton wool blend + sleeves Wool-blend body, PU or leather sleeves Varsity and letterman jackets
Denim 10-14 oz, rigid or washed Denim and trucker jackets
Polar fleece/sherpa pile 280-400 gsm fleece, high-pile sherpa Fleece and sherpa jackets
PU / genuine leather PU standard; genuine leather Leather varsity sleeves and panels
Fill Polyfill 100-300 gsm, recycled fill, down-alternative Puffers, vests, quilted linings fill weight sets the warmth class
Lining Taffeta, quilted, mesh, or sherpa Every jacket the interior finish buyers judge on first try-on

Choosing a fill weight

Your table says fill weight sets the warmth class. Here’s how the range reads in practice.

Around 100 gsm

Warmth:
Light. A layering piece for cool days.

Best for:
Quilted linings, vests, and transitional jackets.

Look:
Slim, with a flatter quilt.

Most versatile

Around 200 gsm

Warmth:
Mid-autumn into early winter.

Best for:
Everyday streetwear puffers.

Look:
A clear puff without heavy bulk.

Around 300 gsm

Warmth:
The warmest in our standard range.

Best for:
Winter puffers and cold markets.

Look:
Full statement volume.

Recycled fill and down alternative are available across the range. Fill weight is also one of the biggest levers on a puffer’s price.

Side by side

An outerwear-grade jacket vs. a relabeled blank

Your hero says it: outerwear-grade construction, not relabeled blanks. Here’s where the difference shows.

Detail Relabeled blank Gibben jacket
Shell, fill and lining Whatever the blank came with Specified together for your jacket
Zips Unbranded, untested YKK, cycled at QC
Snaps Generic caps that pull loose Branded caps, pull-tested
Fill Unchecked, can clump or thin out Fill distribution checked on every unit
Fit Fitted on its own Fit-sampled over a hoodie, the way it’s worn
Branding A label swapped in Hardware, patches, embroidery and labels built into your spec

The most expensive piece gets the harshest judgment

A jacket is usually the most expensive item in your collection, so it carries the highest expectations. A stuck zip or a snap that pulls off in the first week isn’t a small flaw at that price. It’s a return, a review, and a customer who won’t pay jacket prices from you again.

Hardware & Trims

The hardware is half the jacket

Outerwear lives or dies on its hardware; a failed zip is a returned jacket regardless of the shell. Every component below is specified in the tech pack and locked at PP sample.

Hardware

  • YKK zippers: main zips, two-way options, and pocket zips.

  • Custom zipper pulls engraved or molded with your logo.

  • Snaps & poppers branded caps on coach jackets and plackets.

  • Cord locks & toggles for hem and hood adjustment.

  • Interior pockets zip or drop-in, plus hanger loops.

Trims & branding

  • Ribbed collar, cuffs & hem solid or striped knit for bombers and varsities.

  • Chenille patches, varsity lettering, and crest work made in-house.

  • Embroidery chest, back, and sleeve placements through shell and fill.

  • Leather & PU patches with debossed branding

  • Woven labels, hang tags, packaging full private-label finishing

Where branding goes on a jacket

Placement Best method Seen
Chest Embroidery, chenille patch, or leather patch Face-to-face, and in every photo
Back Large embroidery, chenille lettering, or crest From behind, across a street
Sleeve Embroidery or chenille numbers In side profile and when arms move
Zip pulls and snaps Engraved or molded pulls, branded snap caps Every time the jacket opens or closes
Inside Woven label, printed lining, interior pocket At the first try-on, when buyers judge the finish

The jacket is the layer everyone sees

All winter, your jacket goes on over every other outfit. It’s in every outdoor photo, every commute, and every night out. A back crest or a chenille patch turns one purchase into months of your brand in public.

Complete The Collection

Built to layer over your line

Outerwear is the top layer of a collection, not a standalone product, so our jacket blocks are sized to layer cleanly over the hoodies and tees we cut for you, and colorways can be matched across categories from the same dye standards. One factory, one color language, one drop.

How It Works

From tech pack to delivered stock

No tech pack yet? A sketch with a reference jacket is enough to start. Outerwear development takes more engineering than fleece, and we build the spec with you through sampling.

STEP 01

Quote & spec review

Send your design, tech pack, or reference jacket. We confirm the shell, fill, lining, hardware, and target price.

Within 24 Hours

STEP 02

Sampling

Proto to lock construction and hardware, then a fit sample in your shell and colorway worn over a hoodie, because that’s how it’ll be worn.

7~10 Days Per Round

STEP 03

Pre-production approval

PP sample signed off with final fabric, trims, labels, and decoration before bulk cutting starts.

MOQ & Pricing

Why outerwear starts at 50

  • MOQ is 50 pieces per style higher than our fleece minimum because a jacket carries 3–5× the panels plus lining, fill, and hardware setup that only amortizes at volume.

  • Shell and fill set the base price; a satin bomber, a 300 gsm-fill puffer, and a wool-body varsity are different cost classes entirely.

  • Hardware count: every zip, snap, and toggle is a component and an operation; itemized on the quote.

  • Decoration chenille crest work and multi-placement embroidery are priced differently from a single chest hit.

  • Order volume unit price steps down at 200 / 300 / 500-piece tiers.

  • Sample cost is credited against your bulk order. If the MOQ exceeds 100 pieces.

Planning your order

Where 50, 100, and 200 jackets land

Jackets carry more setup than fleece, so it pays to know where the thresholds sit before you choose a quantity.

50 pieces

One style. Enough to launch a jacket and see how it sells before scaling.

100 pieces

Your sample cost is credited against the bulk.

200 / 600 / 1,000

The unit-price steps, once the jacket has proven itself.

Common Questions

We work with PU as standard and with genuine leather for varsity sleeves and panels, plus debossed leather and PU patches. For a full leather jacket, send your tech pack or reference, and we’ll confirm the build.

Polyfill from 100 to 300 gsm, recycled fill, or down-alternative. The fill weight sets the warmth class, from a light layering piece to a full winter puffer.

Yes. Chenille patches, varsity lettering, and crest work are made in-house; embroidery goes on the chest, back, and sleeves through shell and fill, and leather or PU patches can be debossed with your branding.

Yes. A reference jacket with a sketch is enough to start. We confirm the shell, fill, lining, and hardware, then build the spec with you through sampling.

A quote within 24 hours; 7-10 days per sampling round; 3-5 days for PP approval; 4-8 weeks of bulk production depending on the style, then 5-12 days by air or 25-40 days by sea. With one sampling round by air, that’s about 6-12 weeks, depending on the style. New jacket styles often need a second fit round.

Our jacket blocks are sized to layer cleanly over the hoodies and tees we cut for you, and the fit sample is worn over a hoodie, because that’s how the jacket will be worn.

Yes. Windbreaker jackets are one of our outerwear styles, and zip track tops are made as sets with matching pants. See our tracksuits, track pants, and windbreaker pants.

It depends on the build. Nylon shells and polyfill jackets can usually take a gentle wash, while Melton wool, leather, and chenille need more careful care. We put the correct care instructions for each build on your care labels.

Payment terms are confirmed in writing with your quote, alongside the itemized price. Your sample cost is credited against the bulk on orders of 100 pieces or more.

We ship worldwide and serve 40+ export markets by air in 5-12 days or by sea in 25-40 days. Export documents are prepared by us. DDP availability is confirmed by market.

Yes. YKK main zips come with two-way options, plus pocket zips and custom pulls engraved or molded with your logo.

Yes. Colorways can be matched across categories from the same dye standards, so your jacket, hoodies, and tees share one color language.

Yes. Recycled fill is available alongside standard polyfill and down-alternative.
