Good questions.

What is your minimum order?

Our minimum is 15 units per style. We specialise in small to medium production runs, so you don't have to overcommit.

Can I order just one sample first?

Yes. If you're starting a brand, you can order a single DTF-printed sample tee or hoodie from R150 and pay online, before committing to a production run.

Do I pay for a sample on custom orders?

Yes. Custom garments start with a pattern and sample fee, paid before we start. If you go ahead with production, the full fee comes off your order, so you only pay for it once. You see and approve the sample before we make the rest.

Can I supply my own fabric?

Yes. Bring your own fabric and we do the CMT work only (cut, make and trim). Or we can source fabric and trims for you, for an additional admin fee.

Do you deliver outside the Western Cape?

Yes. We're based in Strand in the Helderberg, and we deliver to clients anywhere in South Africa.

Can you brand the garments too?

Yes. We do embroidery, DTF printing and sublimation, so your garments can be made and branded in one place.

How do I get a quote?

Book a consult (R450, credited to your order), use the quote form, or WhatsApp us on 083 954 3331 with what you need and how many.
