Question 1

What is the minimum order quantity for custom coats, and is it firm per style or color?

Accepted Answer

MOQs typically start at 25 units per style and colorway. The exact minimum depends on the coat factory assigned to your project and the complexity of your design - for example, a hooded wool coat with custom buttons may carry a slightly different MOQ than a simple collared denim coat. Your production team will confirm the per-style, per-color minimum once you submit a brief.

Question 2

How much does a coat sample cost, and how long does it take to receive one?

Accepted Answer

Sample cost varies by design complexity, materials, and decoration methods like embroidery or woven labels. After you submit your brief, your production team sources the right factory and returns a sample quote. Most coat samples are completed and shipped within 2-4 weeks, and this timeline is separate from your full production lead time.

Question 3

What is the production lead time for coats after sample approval?

Accepted Answer

Production lead time generally falls between 4-8 weeks after you approve your sample. For example, a slim fit wool coat with custom buttons, a woven label, and custom packaging would sit toward the longer end of that range, while a simpler fleece coat with screen print branding could ship faster. Your production team keeps you updated with tracking at every stage.

Question 4

Do you offer tiered pricing for coats at different quantities?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Pricing tiers exist at 25, 50, 100, 250, and 500 units - unit cost drops as volume increases. Rather than publishing fixed prices, we return a detailed quote after you submit a brief so the numbers reflect your exact specs: material, decoration methods, style details, and any custom packaging. This way every quote is accurate to your coat, not a generic estimate.

Question 5

What private label and white label options are available for coats?

Accepted Answer

Full private label scope is available. That includes woven labels at the neck or hem, branded hangtags, screen-printed care info, custom buttons with your logo or finish, and custom packaging such as branded boxes, polybags, or mailers. You can bundle all branding elements into one project or add them a la carte - your production team will spec everything in the tech pack.

Question 6

Can you source specific materials for my coat, or do I need to provide a tech pack with named fabrics?

Accepted Answer

Either approach works. If you have a tech pack that calls out a specific fabric - say a particular weight of wool or a plant-based vegan leather - your production team will match it through our network of 1,500+ vetted factories. If you are earlier in development, you can submit a brief describing the hand-feel, weight, or look you want, and the team will recommend materials like fleece, denim, or other options that fit your vision.

Question 7

Can you grade patterns from my own measurements instead of stock templates?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. If you supply your own size specs or a fit sample, our team builds the pattern and grades it across your full size run. This is especially important for custom coats where fit details like a cropped silhouette or slim fit construction need to be precise. You are never locked into a manufacturer's stock block.

Question 8

Can I mix sizes and colors within one coat MOQ?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can split sizes and colors within a single MOQ as long as each colorway meets the factory's per-color minimum. For instance, you could order a run of hooded coats with pockets in three colors across five sizes and still stay within one production order. Your production team will help you map out the size-color matrix before production begins.
