What we make in sportswear
Sportswear has to survive sweat, stretch and repeated washing, so most of the work is in choosing the right knit and constructing it properly. We manufacture training and gym wear for brands and clubs, including:
- Tracksuits and warm-up jackets
- Training tees, tank tops and long sleeves
- Shorts, joggers and leggings
- Compression tops and base layers
Fabrics for performance wear
Most activewear is cut from polyester or polyester-elastane knits because they wick moisture and hold colour. Lightweight tops usually sit between 130 and 160 GSM, mesh panels are lighter, and fleece for warm-ups runs from about 240 to 320 GSM. If you are unsure what weight you need, the fabric GSM guide explains the ranges garment by garment.
Tell us how the garment will be used and we will suggest fabric options with swatches or photos at quote stage.
Construction details that matter
Flatlock seams reduce chafing on fitted garments. Bartacks reinforce pocket corners and drawcord exits. Raglan sleeves give more shoulder movement than set-in sleeves. Put these choices in your tech pack, or ask us and we will recommend a construction for your style.
Branding and decoration
All-over designs and gradients are printed by sublimation, which dyes the polyester itself and adds no weight. Small chest logos are often heat transfers or embroidery. We also sew in your neck labels and attach hang tags.

Questions buyers ask
Which fabrics do you use for sportswear?
Mainly polyester and polyester-elastane knits such as interlock, mesh and brushed fleece. The exact fabric is chosen with you at quote stage based on the garment and your budget.
Can you match my brand colours?
Yes. Send Pantone references. Sublimated garments are colour matched on a printed strike-off, and dyed fabrics are matched with a lab dip, before bulk production.
Do you make sportswear for both men and women?
Yes. Send a size chart for each fit, or tell us the fit you want and we will propose a graded size chart for your approval.
