01 / Compare materials
Fabric swatches
Feel the texture and weight. Compare physical colors and how the material moves in your hands.
Useful for
Ask about fabric swatchesNarrowing down the fabric before garment development.
Custom workwear samples
Feel it.
Try it.
Then approve it.
A photo can show you the look. A sample lets you feel the fabric, move in the garment and check the details before they go into your order.
Complimentary initial swatches or agreed blank samples. We confirm the items and shipping arrangements with you first.
What would help you decide?
Start with the question
you need to answer.
Comparing fabrics and approving a finished design are different jobs. We’ll help you choose the sample that makes sense for your stage.
02 / Try a garment
A blank sample
Look at the construction, try the fit and check room to move. We’ll explain which details are useful references for your project.
Useful for
Ask about a blank sampleAn initial feel for the garment. It won’t include all your custom details.
03 / Review your design
A custom sample
Check the agreed fabric, fit, logo and garment details together. You review the physical sample before bulk production.
Agree before we make it
Discuss a custom sampleThe sample requirements, development cost and timing.
Still deciding how it should look?
See our design supportWe can help with free design visuals. They make colors, layout and logo placement easier to discuss; the physical sample is where you check the result.
When the custom sample arrives
Try it on.
Look a little closer.
Have the agreed specifications beside you. Ask someone who will wear the clothing to try it with their usual work layers.
01Fabric & color
Compare the physical material and agreed color reference. Check the feel, weight and comfort against what your team needs.
Choosing the fabric02Fit & movement
Check garment measurements using the agreed method. Reach, sit and bend in the sample. Note where it feels tight, loose, short or long, and which size you tried.
Measurements and fit checks03Logo & decoration
Look at the logo size, position, color and finish on the selected fabric. Check small lettering and edges, and feel the decorated area against the garment.
Compare decoration methods04Construction & labels
Use the pockets and closures. Check stitching and finishing, then read each label and check its position and comfort against the skin.
Labels and trims05Packing & identification
Where packaging is included in the sample review, check the fold, bag, labels and agreed markings. Confirm which remaining packing details need separate approval.

If something needs changing
Tell us where.
Show us what you mean.
“The sleeve pulls when I reach forward” tells us more than “the fit is wrong.” Photos and specific notes help us work out the next adjustment with you.
Bring the comments together
Identify the sample and size. Put your team’s feedback in one list, with photos or marked measurements where useful.
Agree the revisions
We review what needs changing, how to check the update and whether another sample is needed. Any effect on cost or timing is discussed first.
Confirm the final version
Approve the sample and relevant specifications once the agreed changes have been checked. Keep the approved details clear for everyone involved.
Before bulk production
Your approval
comes first.
Bulk production starts only after you approve the sample and the relevant specifications. These become the reference for production and inspection.
How we check the bulk orderBefore you request samples
A few useful
distinctions.
Tell us what you need to decide. We’ll explain which samples can help.
Are all samples free?
Initial fabric swatches or agreed blank garment samples are complimentary. We confirm the items and shipping arrangements before dispatch. Custom sample development is discussed and priced separately.
Does a free design visual replace a physical sample?
No. A visual helps you review the appearance. A physical custom sample lets you check the actual material, fit and finished details before you approve them.
Can our team try more than one size?
Tell us which sizes and garments would be useful, and who will try them. We’ll discuss the samples available or needing development and confirm the arrangements before proceeding.
How long does a custom sample take?
Timing depends on the fabric, garment details and branding involved. Share your requirements and we’ll agree a sample schedule. If a change affects that schedule, we’ll discuss it with you.
What would you like to check?
Let’s choose the
right sample.
Tell us the garment you’re considering and what you’d like to learn from it: the fabric, the fit or your finished design.
