Buyer’s Guide

Sweatshirt Manufacturers: 101 Guide for Start-Up Brands

Starting a new apparel brand can be daunting, especially when it comes to finding a sweatshirt manufacturer. You want to find a sweatshirts supplier that can meet your needs and produce high-quality products, but how do you go about finding one? Sweatshirt manufacturers are not all created equal. Some may specialize in certain types of sweatshirts, while others might have a more general focus. There are also a few things to keep in mind when choosing a manufacturer, such as minimum order quantities, lead times, and price. In this guide, we'll teach you everything you need to know about how to work with sweatshirt manufacturers and what to expect from the process. So, whether you're just starting out or you've been in the business for a while, read on for some valuable tips!

1. Sweatshirt: The Basics

A sweatshirt is a type of shirt made of thick fabric, usually cotton, with long sleeves and a crew neck. Sweatshirts are often worn as outerwear in cold weather or for exercise. They are also sometimes worn as a fashion statement.

The sweatshirt is a versatile piece of clothing and can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. Sweatshirts are often worn with jeans or shorts for a casual look, or with dressier pants and skirts for a more polished outfit.

Sweatshirts are a great addition to any wardrobe and can be a comfortable and stylish option for any event. They are available in a variety of colors, prints, and styles, so there is sure to be one that is perfect for any individual.

2. The Different Types of Sweatshirt

Sweatshirt manufacturers produce a variety of sweatshirt styles, each with its own unique benefits. Here are some of the most popular sweatshirt types:

Hooded Sweatshirt

Hoodies are sweatshirts with a hood attached. They’re great for keeping the head and ears warm, and they can also help protect the face from the elements.

Zip-Up Hoodies

Zip-up hoodies are similar to regular hoodies, but they have a zipper down the front. This makes them easier to take on and off, and it also allows anyone wearing to adjust the amount of ventilation they’re getting.

Pullover Sweatshirt

Pullover sweatshirts are the simplest type of sweatshirt – they don’t have any zippers or buttons, and they’re easy to slip on and off. Many people prefer pullover sweatshirts because they’re less bulky than zip-ups.

Crew Neck Sweatshirt

Crewneck sweatshirts have a wide, round neckline that sits low on the chest. They’re a popular choice for athletes and anyone who wants a relaxed fit.

Mock Neck Sweatshirt

Mock neck sweatshirts have a high, collar-like neckline that can help protect the face and neck from the cold. They’re a good choice for winter activities or for anyone who wants a more stylish sweatshirt.

Polo Sweatshirt

Polo sweatshirts are a type of sweatshirt that has a collar and buttons like a polo shirt but has a long sleeve. They are a popular choice for people who want a sweatshirt that is more stylish and less casual.

These are just some of the most popular sweatshirt types. There are many other sweatshirt styles available, and the best way to find the right one is to try them on and see what feels comfortable.

3. Common Fabrics Used in Sweatshirt

Sweatshirt manufacturers usually use different types of fabrics to create their garments. Here are some of the most common fabrics they used:

Cotton

Cotton is the most popular fabric used in sweatshirts. It is soft, comfortable, and absorbent. This fabric is also hypoallergenic, making it a good choice for people with sensitive skin.

Polyester

Polyester is another popular fabric used in sweatshirts. It is lightweight and durable. This fabric is also wrinkle-resistant and easy to care for.

Nylon

Nylon is a strong and durable synthetic fabric. It is often used in sweatshirts because it is resistant to pilling and tearing.

Wool

Wool is a natural fabric that is warm and breathable. It is often used in sweatshirts for its insulation properties. However, wool can be a bit scratchy and is not ideal for people with sensitive skin.

Fleece

Fleece is a synthetic fabric that is soft, warm, and lightweight. It is often used in sweatshirts for its comfortable and cozy feel. Fleece is also resistant to pilling and static making it a good choice for people who are active.

These are just some of the most common fabrics used in sweatshirts. Sweatshirt manufacturers often use a combination of different fabrics to create their garments. This allows them to create sweatshirts that are durable, comfortable, and stylish perfect for any activity.

4. 5 Rules To Design the Perfect Sweatshirt Fit

It’s no secret that sweatshirts are one of the most popular items of clothing. They’re comfortable, they’re stylish, and they can be worn in a variety of different settings. However, sweatshirts can also be tricky to get right. If you’re not careful, they can end up looking sloppy and ill-fitting.

To avoid this, there are a few key rules that you should follow when it comes to sweatshirt design. Here are 5 of the most important ones:

#1 Shoulder Seam Should Line Up With the Natural Shoulder

This may seem like a small detail, but it’s actually one of the most important elements of sweatshirt design. The shoulder seam should always line up with the natural shoulder, as this will ensure that the sweatshirt sits correctly on the body.

If the shoulder seam is too low, it will cause the sweatshirt to droop and look ill-fitting. On the other hand, if the shoulder seam is too high, it will make the sweatshirt look constrictive and uncomfortable.

#2 Sleeves Should Be the Right Length

The sleeves on the sweatshirt should be long enough to cover the entire upper arm. They shouldn’t be so long that they’re constantly getting in the way, but also shouldn’t be so short that they don’t provide any coverage. A good rule of thumb is that the sleeves should come down to about halfway between the elbow and the wrist.

#3 Body Shouldn’t Be Too Tight or Too Loose

The body of your sweatshirt shouldn’t be so tight that it’s uncomfortable or difficult to move in, but it also shouldn’t be so loose that it looks sloppy. The sweatshirt should fit snugly around the chest and waist, without being constrictive.

#4 Neckline Should Be Comfortable

The neckline of the sweatshirt is also important. It shouldn’t be so low that it’s constantly slipping off, but also shouldn’t be so high that it’s uncomfortable or chafes the neck. A good rule of thumb is to aim for a neckline that sits about midway between the collarbone and the base of the neck.

#5 Bottom Hem Should Sit at the Hip

The bottom hem of the sweatshirt should sit at the hipbone, or just slightly below it. It shouldn’t be so long that it covers the entire rear end, but also shouldn’t be so short that it doesn’t provide any coverage. This will ensure that the sweatshirt doesn’t look too long or bulky.

These are just a few of the key rules that the sweatshirt factory should follow when it comes to sweatshirt design. By following these simple guidelines, they can be sure that the sweatshirt will look great and fits perfectly.

5. Popular Sweatshirt Trends To Know About

Sweatshirt factories are constantly coming up with new trends to keep sweatshirts popular. Here are some of the latest sweatshirt trends to know about:

Oversized Hoodies

One of the biggest sweatshirt trends right now is oversized hoodies. This trend is especially popular with younger consumers. They love the relaxed and comfortable fit of oversized hoodies. And they also like how they can style them in different ways. Whether they’re wearing them with jeans or leggings, oversized sweatshirts are versatile and stylish.

Embellished Hoodies

Another popular trend is embellished hoodies. This trend is all about adding a little bit of bling to the sweatshirt. Anyone can find hoodies with sequins, beads, or other embellishments. This is a great way to add some personality to any look. And it’s also a great way to make the sweatshirt stand out from the rest.

Graphic Hoodies

Graphic hoodies are also very popular right now. Consumers love graphic hoodies because they allow them to show off their personal style. Whether it’s a tie dye sweatshirt or one with a bold graphic print, this trend is all about making a statement. And businesses can get in on this trend by creating custom graphic hoodies for their customers.

Cropped Hoodies

Cropped hoodies are another trend that’s been gaining popularity in recent years. This style of the sweatshirt is shorter than traditional sweatshirts. And it usually has a raw edge hem. Cropped hoodies are perfect for pairing with high-waisted pants or skirts. They’re also great for layering over other tops.

Choose from a variety of designs and colors to make your outfits more unique. Check out these style recommendations for wearing a cropped sweatshirt:

Step#5 Promote Your Brand

The next step is to promote your brand. This can be done through various marketing channels such as social media, online advertising, and public relations. The more exposure you can get for your brand, the better chance you will have of success.

7. How To Work With Sweatshirt Manufacturer

Working with a sweatshirt manufacturer can be a great way to get high-quality, custom sweatshirts made for your business or organization. However, it’s important to know how to work with sweatshirt manufacturers in order to get the best results. Here are some tips:

Know what you want

Before you even start looking for a sweatshirt manufacturer, you need to know what you want. This includes things like the style of the sweatshirt, the colors, the size, etc. Once you know what you want, it will be much easier to find a clothing manufacturer that can meet your needs.

Develop a Good Rapport

Once you’ve found a sweatshirt manufacturer that you think can meet your needs, it’s important to develop a good rapport with them. The better your relationship is with your manufacturer, the more likely they are to be accommodating of your needs.

It’s also important to remember that your manufacturer is a business, just like you are. They’re not going to drop everything to accommodate your every whim, so it’s important to be reasonable in your requests.

Communicate Clearly

Another important tip for working with sweatshirt manufacturers is to communicate clearly. This means being clear about what you want, as well as providing any necessary information that will help the manufacturer create the product you’re looking for.

If there are any uncertainties or confusion, it’s best to address them upfront rather than waiting until after the sweatshirts have been made. This will help to avoid any potential problems or delays.

Be Patient

Finally, it’s important to be patient when working with sweatshirt manufacturers. It can take some time to get everything sorted out and finalized, so it’s important to be patient throughout the process.

9. How Much Should You Price Your Sweatshirt?

When it comes to pricing your products, there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. The right price for your sweatshirt will depend on a variety of factors, including your target market, manufacturing costs, shipping costs, and desired profit margin.

To help you determine how much to charge for your sweatshirt, we’ve compiled a list of pricing strategies used by sweatshirt manufacturers.

How Much Should You Price Your Sweatshirt?
Cost-Plus Pricing simply add together your manufacturing costs, shipping costs, and desired profit margin
Competitive Pricing set your prices based on what your competitors are charging for similar products
Value-Based Pricing set your prices based on the perceived value of your product

Cost-Plus Pricing

Cost-plus pricing is the simplest pricing strategy. To calculate your price, simply add together your manufacturing costs, shipping costs, and desired profit margin. For example, if your sweatshirt costs $10 to manufacture, your shipping costs are $5, and you want to make a 20% profit margin, your price would be $15.

Competitive Pricing

With competitive pricing, you set your prices based on what your competitors are charging for similar products. For example, if your competitor’s sweatshirt is priced at $20, you would price your sweatshirt at $18 in order to be more competitive.

Value-Based Pricing

With value-based pricing, you set your prices based on the perceived value of your product. For example, if you believe your sweatshirt is worth $30, you would price it at that price point regardless of what your competitors are.

These are just a few of the most common pricing strategies used by sweatshirt manufacturers. To find the right price for your sweatshirt, experiment with different pricing strategies and see what works best for your business.

10. 5 Mistakes That Start-Up Brands Do and How To Avoid Them

When starting a new sweatshirt company, it’s easy to make avoidable mistakes that can set your business back. To help you avoid these costly errors, we’ve compiled a list of the most common mistakes start-up brands make – and how to avoid them.

#1 Not Defining Your Target Market

One of the most common mistakes start-up brands make is failing to define their target market. Without a clear understanding of who your target market is, it will be difficult to create a marketing strategy that resonates with them.

To avoid this mistake, take the time to research your target market and understand their needs, wants, and pain points. Once you have a good understanding of your target market, you can create marketing campaigns and content that resonates with them.

#2 Not Investing in Quality

When starting a sweatshirt company, it’s important to invest in quality. This means investing in high-quality materials and manufacturing processes. Sweatshirts that are made with cheap materials and poor construction will quickly fall apart, leaving your customers disappointed.

To avoid this mistake, invest in high-quality materials and work with experienced sweatshirt manufacturers. This will ensure that your sweatshirts are well-made and will last for years to come.

#3 Not Creating a Unique Selling Proposition

Another common mistake that start-up brands make is failing to create a unique selling proposition (USP). Your USP is what makes your brand different from the competition. Without a strong USP, it will be difficult to stand out in a crowded marketplace.

To avoid this mistake, take the time to define what makes your brand unique. Once you have a clear understanding of your USP, make sure it is prominently featured on your website and in all of your marketing materials.

#4 Not Focusing on Customer Service

Another mistake that start-up brands make is failing to focus on customer service. In today’s competitive marketplace, customers have high expectations for customer service. If you don’t meet these expectations, they will take their business elsewhere.

To avoid this mistake, make sure you have a strong customer service strategy in place. This should include things like providing excellent customer service, responding to customer complaints quickly, and offering a money-back guarantee.

#5 Not Pricing Competitively

Another common mistake start-up brands make is failing to price their products competitively. If your prices are too high, customers will go to the competition. On the other hand, if your prices are too low, you won’t make enough profit to sustain your business.

To avoid this mistake, do your research and find out what the competition is charging for similar products. Once you have a good understanding of the going rate, price your products accordingly.

These are just a few of the most common mistakes that start-up brands make. By avoiding these mistakes, you’ll be well on your way to building a successful sweatshirt company.2
