Usually needs custom neck label, hang tag, polybag, size chart, consistent fit and reorder planning.
1. Start with product use, not only product name
A basic T-shirt for retail, a logo polo for staff uniforms and a private label shirt for a brand launch can use different fabric, fit, workmanship and packaging. Before asking a China clothing manufacturer for price, define how the garment will be used.

Turn this product research into a factory quote
Usually needs logo placement, embroidery or printing durability, color consistency and size breakdown by team.
Usually needs clear carton packing, repeat bulk quantity and stable fabric availability.
Usually needs low MOQ, simple colors, sample confirmation and focused first launch styles.
2. Fabric details change the real quotation
For T-shirts and polo shirts, buyers should confirm fabric type, approximate weight and hand feel. A vague request like “cotton T-shirt” is usually not enough for accurate sample cost or bulk pricing.
- T-shirt options may include jersey, cotton, cotton blend or performance fabric direction.
- Polo shirt options may include pique, jersey polo, cotton blend or breathable fabric direction.
- Confirm GSM or provide a reference sample when possible.
- Tell Xiao whether the style is for fashion, uniform, sportswear, workwear or promotional use.
3. Logo method should be confirmed before sampling
Printing, embroidery and badges have different costs and different production risks. Logo size, artwork format, color count and placement should be confirmed before the factory makes a sample.
- Send AI, PDF, PNG or clear logo artwork if available.
- Mark chest, sleeve, back neck, hem or back print position.
- Confirm whether the logo should be printed, embroidered or patched.
- Share wash durability expectations if the order is for uniforms or workwear.
4. MOQ and sample route
Naidinise can discuss suitable projects from 100 pcs, depending on style, fabric, colors, logo method and packaging details. For first-time buyers, a focused small batch with fewer colors is usually easier than launching many styles at once.
Sample development is usually clearer when buyers send product photos, size chart, fabric direction, quantity and logo details together. Bulk production timing is confirmed after sample approval and material details are settled.
