Uniform programmes

Uniform programmes for companies, schools and clubs

Staff polos, school sweatshirts, club T-shirts: uniform garments are bought again and again, and every reorder has to match the last one. We cut and sew them in Gaindakot, Nepal, to your spec, from 200 pieces per style and colour (1,000 pieces per order), and make each repeat order to the sample and colour standard you approved.

01Who it’s for

Uniform buyers we make for

  • Companies: staff polos and T-shirts for offices, shops, warehouses and field teams.
  • Schools and uniform suppliers: polos, sweatshirts and PE T-shirts in the school’s colours.
  • Clubs and associations: club polos, training T-shirts and hoodies.
  • Hotels, restaurants and cafés: front-of-house polos and T-shirts.
  • Workwear basics: T-shirts, polos, sweatshirts and knit shorts for teams that wear them every day.

02What we make

The knit garments uniform programmes run on

Polo shirts in piqué, crew-neck T-shirts in single jersey, sweatshirts and hoodies in fleece-back or French terry, and knit shorts, in cotton, CVC or blends to your spec. Knit basics are our core; if your programme needs another garment, send us the spec and we will tell you what we can do.

We source fabric to your spec from established mills, and you choose: our regular mills, OEKO-TEX-certified fabric, or a mill you nominate. We confirm the mill and its country before you order.

03How a programme runs

Sample, approval, bulk, then repeat orders

  • Sample. Send your tech pack, a reference garment or your current uniform. We make a pre-production sample in 7–14 days, with lab dips for your colours.
  • Approval. You approve the sample and the lab dip in writing. They become the standard we keep on file for your programme.
  • Bulk. Fabric is prepared to your approved lab dip, one dye lot per order, then cut, sewn and finished on our floor and dispatched 25–30 days after sample approval. We test fabric and garments in-house, for example shrinkage against your spec, and every order gets a final AQL 2.5 inspection.
  • Repeat orders. Reorders skip sampling, because your patterns, lab dips and approved sample are already on file. Each one is made to the approved sample and colour standard.

04Minimums

200 pieces per style and colour, 1,000 per order

The minimum is 200 pieces per style and colour, with 1,000 pieces in total per order, and you can split each colour across the sizes you need, larger sizes included. A programme of five colours in one style, or two styles in three colours, reaches the 1,000-piece total. Our MOQ and colour planner helps you check a size and colour list against the minimum.

05Logos and labels

Your branding, through partner workshops

We sew in your woven neck labels, care labels and size labels. Printing and embroidery of logos and crests are arranged through partner workshops, not in-house; our team coordinates artwork, strike-offs, approvals and the quality check when garments come back to our floor, so you still deal with one supplier.

06Planning a rollout or a school year

Lead times to plan around

Samples take 7–14 days after we review your tech pack, and bulk is dispatched 25–30 days after you approve the sample. Sea freight then adds roughly 6–8 weeks to Europe, the UK or Australia, and roughly 7–10 weeks to the United States; air freight via Kathmandu is faster. To check fabric, stitching and colours first, order the sample kit: US$79 including express courier, credited against your first bulk order.

Questions

Straight answers.

What is your minimum order for uniforms?
200 pieces per style and colour, with 1,000 pieces in total per order, split across the sizes you need. Each colour in a programme needs to reach 200 pieces.
How do you keep reorders the same colour?
You approve a lab dip and a pre-production sample in writing, and we keep them on file as the standard for your programme. Fabric for each order is prepared to that lab dip, one dye lot per order, and each reorder is made to the approved sample and colour standard.
Do you embroider or print logos in-house?
No. Embroidery and printing are arranged through partner workshops and coordinated by our team, including artwork, strike-offs and the quality check when garments come back to our floor.
How long does a uniform order take?
Samples take 7–14 days after tech-pack review, and bulk is dispatched 25–30 days after you approve the sample. Reorders skip sampling. Freight comes on top: roughly 6–8 weeks by sea to Europe, the UK or Australia.
Can we see the garments before we order?
Yes. The sample kit costs US$79 including express courier and is credited against your first bulk order. It holds three finished garments, a fabric and GSM swatch card, a colour card and label samples.
