Question 1

What is the minimum order quantity for custom long sleeve flannel shirts, and is it firm?

Accepted Answer

MOQs vary by factory and are set per style and per colorway - not across your entire order. Most of the 1,500+ vetted factories in our network start at modest minimums, and your production team can negotiate flexibility depending on fabric and decoration complexity. Submit a brief and your dedicated team will match you with a manufacturer whose MOQ fits your drop size.

Question 2

How much does a sample cost and how long does it take before production begins?

Accepted Answer

Sample cost and timeline are separate from your production run. Once your brief is submitted, your production team coordinates a tech pack with the factory. Most long sleeve flannel shirt samples ship within 2-4 weeks depending on fabric sourcing and custom details like custom buttons or woven labels. Sample fees vary by factory and complexity - your team provides a quote after the brief review.

Question 3

What is the typical production lead time for long sleeve flannel shirts?

Accepted Answer

After sample approval, a standard production run of custom flannel shirts - say 250 units across three colors with embroidery and woven labels - typically takes 4-8 weeks depending on the manufacturer. Your production team tracks every milestone from fabric cutting through final packaging and keeps you updated at each stage.

Question 4

Is there tiered pricing at different quantities like 25, 50, 100, 250, and 500 units?

Accepted Answer

Yes, pricing tiers exist at the 25, 50, 100, 250, and 500-unit break points. Unit cost decreases as quantity increases due to production efficiencies. We never advertise fixed unit prices because every long sleeve flannel shirt order is custom - your brief factors in materials like cotton or flannel, decoration methods, and finishing details, and your team returns a detailed quote at each tier.

Question 5

What does private label and white label scope include - woven labels, hangtags, packaging?

Accepted Answer

Full private label and white label programs are built into the platform. Your production team can coordinate woven labels, branded hangtags, screen-printed care info, custom buttons, and custom packaging including branded boxes, polybags, and mailers. These are available bundled or a la carte depending on your needs. Everything is spec'd in your tech pack so the factory delivers a retail-ready product under your brand.

Question 6

Can you source materials from a brief, or do I need a named-fabric tech pack?

Accepted Answer

Either approach works. If you have a specific fabric in mind - say a particular weight of brushed flannel or a cotton-viscose blend - include it in your tech pack and your team will source it. If you're starting from scratch, simply describe what you're after in your brief (weight, hand feel, drape) and your production team will present material options from the factory's stock, including flannel, cotton, denim, and viscose/rayon.

Question 7

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

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Your production team works from your measurements and fit intent - not generic stock templates. Whether you need a slim fit collared flannel or a relaxed puff sleeve silhouette, the factory builds a custom pattern and grades it across your full size run. Fit samples are sent for approval before production begins.

Question 8

Can I mix sizes and colors within a single MOQ for one style of flannel shirt?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can split sizes and colors within one MOQ for a single style. For example, a 100-unit order of collared long sleeve flannel shirts could be divided across three colorways and five sizes. Your production team confirms the size-color breakdown with the manufacturer during the tech pack stage to make sure every split meets the factory's per-color minimums.
