Custom Blank Hoodie Manufacturer

Premium wholesale blank hoodies cost real money before you have printed anything, and they carry someone else's neck label. Private label blanks from your own block, in your own fleece weight, are the way brands protect margin and identity.

We manufacture private label blank hoodies to your spec: block, GSM, fleece type, colour, rib and labels, unprinted, folded and bagged ready for your printer or embroiderer. Pullover, zip, oversized, boxy and cropped blanks are all available. Mike Apparel manufactures hoodies for brands that need a custom blank hoodie manufacturer willing to start at 50 pieces, ship in 2–3 weeks and keep the block consistent on every reorder.

Blank Hoodie fabrics and weights

Choosing the cloth for a custom hoodie is a trade-off between hand feel, weight, print behaviour and cost. These are the fabrics we run most often for this product, with what each one is best at. For the blank hoodie most brands start with 320 GSM brushed fleece and step up to 350 GSM brushed fleece when they want the standard premium blank.

Fit and silhouette options

Fit is graded from our house blocks or from your tech pack, in US sizing from XS to 3XL, with each size measured on the pre-production sample against your spec sheet. For a blank hoodie, we usually sample the oversized blank hoodie first and adjust from there.

• Oversized blank hoodie
• Boxy blank hoodie
• Regular blank hoodie
• Full-zip blank

How we build a custom hoodie

Construction is where a hoodie either earns its retail price or does not. The details below are standard on our hoodies; anything not listed can be specified. Start your blank hoodie tech pack with this line: one block held across colours and reorders so every batch matches.

• One block held across colours and reorders so every batch matches
• Double-layer hood, 2×2 rib, kangaroo pocket, taped neck
• Colour-matched drawcords and eyelets
• Custom woven neck label, size tab and care label
• Folded, poly-bagged, size-stickered, cartoned for your decorator

Printing, embroidery and finishing

Print, embroidery and wash are done in-house, so the hoodie and its decoration ship as one finished product with one point of responsibility. For blank hoodie decoration, woven or printed neck labels leads, followed by hem loop labels.

• Woven or printed neck labels
• Hem loop labels
• Custom drawcord tips
• Garment dye for exclusive colours
• Enzyme wash for a softer blank

Your label on every hoodie

Private label is included, not an upsell. A custom hoodie from Mike Apparel ships with your woven or printed neck label, size tab, care label and, if you want them, hang tags, custom poly bags and printed boxes. Send vector artwork and we produce label samples alongside the garment sample. See our private label clothing page for label types, minimums and artwork specs. On a blank hoodie the label set is usually a woven neck label, a size tab and a hem tag, with a hang tag on the private label blank hoodies.

Blank Hoodie minimum order quantity

We quote hoodies per design and colourway, from 50 pieces up. Larger runs cost less per piece once fabric is bought in bulk and the sewing line stays on one setup, and a custom-dyed colour needs a bigger minimum than a stock one. For reference, a blank hoodie run of 50 pieces in 320 GSM brushed fleece with one embroidery and private labels is a typical starting spec.

We quote every order individually once we know the spec, so nothing here is a placeholder number. Ask for a quote and you’ll have real figures within a day, including DDP shipping to your address. A blank hoodie sample is billed separately from the bulk order and refunded against it once you approve and place the run.

Blank Hoodie production timeline

From brief to delivered hoodies, this is the sequence and the timing. Total time from first enquiry to goods at your door is usually five to six weeks including sampling. A first blank hoodie order usually moves from brief to delivered goods in five to six weeks.

1. Brief and quote (24 hours)Send a tech pack, sketch or reference hoodie with target quantity. We reply with fabric options, MOQ and a per-piece quote.
2. Pre-production sample (7–10 days)One hoodie in your fabric, fit, colour and branding. Revisions until approved. Read about the sampling process.
3. Approval and depositSign off the sample and size set; 50% deposit reserves fabric and the production slot.
4. Bulk production (2–3 weeks)Cutting, sewing, wash, decoration, labelling, QC and packing in-house, with photo updates.
5. QC and DDP shipping (4–7 days by air)Inspection against the approved sample, then DDP delivery with duties paid. See our full timeline guide.

US and international delivery

Most of our hoodie production ships to the United States, DDP, meaning duties, taxes and customs clearance are paid by us and included in the quote. Air freight lands in Dallas or New York in four to seven days after the run ships; sea freight takes four to five weeks and costs less for larger orders. We also ship to the UK, Canada, Australia, the EU and the UAE. See streetwear manufacturing for USA brands and our DDP shipping page. Blank Hoodie orders to the USA are usually air-freighted; a 50-piece run weighs little enough that air costs only a few dollars per piece more than sea.
