How To Order

Two order paths for custom projects and catalog styles

Send a full custom brief with files, or choose ready catalog styles for light customization such as logo, label, color, size ratio, and packing.

Two order entrances

Choose the path that matches your buying stage

Choose a development brief for a new project, or select existing catalog styles for customization. You can attach project files to the brief within the limits shown in the form. If files exceed those limits or upload is unavailable, describe the files in your message and coordinate transfer by email.

For full custom activewear projects

Custom development

Use this path when you need new style development, logo files, design files, tech packs, samples, fabric decisions, packing details, and a production quote.

  • Attach your logo, artwork, tech pack, sketch, or size chart within the limits shown in the form
  • Share product requirements, company details, and contact information
  • For larger files or when upload is unavailable, submit your brief and describe the files so transfer can be arranged by email

For catalog products and small adjustments

Existing catalog styles

Use this path when you want to choose existing activewear styles first, then add light customization notes such as color, logo, label, packaging, or size ratio.

  • Go to Product page to select and record preferred styles
  • Add quantity, sales channel, logo, label, and packing notes
  • Download the current inPACE activewear catalog

Buyer FAQs

Questions to settle before you submit an RFQ

These practical points help keep the first sample and production discussion clear.

What should I include in a custom activewear RFQ?

Start with the product type, reference material, target quantity, logo requirements, size range, packing needs, delivery market, and timeline. A detailed brief makes fabric, sampling, and quotation discussions more useful.

Read the custom activewear RFQ guide
Can I start from an existing style instead of a full tech pack?

Yes. You can begin with a catalog style, then define practical adjustments such as color, logo, label, packaging, and size ratio before sampling or bulk confirmation.

Compare wholesale and custom routes
What affects the MOQ and first-order plan?

MOQ is shaped by fabric availability, color and size ratio, logo or decoration method, packaging, and whether materials can be shared across styles. Confirm these together before setting the first order plan.

See the MOQ planning guide
When should logo, labels, and packaging be confirmed?

Confirm logo placement, label content, hangtags, polybags, carton marks, and artwork files before bulk production. These details should follow the approved sample and production brief.

Prepare custom-logo activewear details
How does sample approval move into bulk production?

After sample feedback is closed, the production brief should align fabric, colors, measurements, logo placement, labels, packing, quantity, and delivery expectations before bulk work begins.

Follow the sample-to-bulk guide
What are the typical sample time, MOQ, price, and bulk lead time?

Sample planning is usually 5–10 days after the brief and materials are reviewed. Your written quotation confirms the schedule, MOQ by style and colour, price per piece or set, and production and delivery conditions.

Discuss a project quotation
Which delivery methods can be considered?

Depending on the destination and project requirements, delivery can be planned through sea freight, air freight, sea freight DDP, air freight DDP, DHL, FedEx, UPS, China Post, or another suitable route.
