A custom sweatsuit set costs $26 to $56 per set to produce at 50–100 units in 350–450 GSM fleece or French terry with matching embroidery and private labels, FOB Sialkot. At 300–1,000 sets the price drops to $20–$44, with fabric weight and the bottom style driving most of the difference.
A set is two garments with one requirement that separate orders cannot meet: the pieces must match in colour, rib and hand. This guide gives Mike Apparel’s real price bands for sets, the split between top and bottom, what adds cost and a worked example. Freight is quoted DDP separately.
How is the cost of a sweatsuit split between top and bottom?
| Piece | 350 GSM fleece | 400 GSM cotton fleece | Share of set |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pullover hoodie | $14 – $22 | $16 – $26 | 55–60% |
| Crewneck | $12 – $19 | $14 – $23 | 50–55% |
| Jogger / sweatpant | $12 – $19 | $14 – $23 | 40–45% |
| Sweat short | $9 – $14 | $10 – $16 | 30–35% |
Bottoms cost nearly as much as tops because pockets, waistband, gusset and rib cuffs add sewing time, even though they use a little less fabric. See sweatpants manufacturing and sweat shorts for standalone prices.
How much does a sweatsuit cost by style?
| Set | 50–100 sets | 300–1,000 sets |
|---|---|---|
| Fleece set, 350 GSM 80/20 | $26 – $46 | $20 – $36 |
| French terry set, 340 GSM | $26 – $50 | $20 – $39 |
| Cropped set (women's) | $26 – $48 | $20 – $37 |
| Matching set, 400 GSM cotton | $28 – $52 | $22 – $41 |
| Oversized set, 400–450 GSM | $30 – $56 | $23 – $44 |
| Hoodie + short summer set | $23 – $40 | $18 – $31 |
What adds to the price of a set?
- Fabric weight and fibre: the largest driver; 450 GSM cotton adds $6–$9 per set over 350 GSM blend.
- Zip hoodie instead of pullover: +$3–$4 per set for YKK hardware and split pockets.
- Wide-leg, balloon or flare pants: +$1.50–$3 for extra fabric and pattern work.
- Matching embroidery on both pieces: the second placement adds $1–$2.50.
- Garment dye or wash on the set: +$3–$5 (dye) or +$7–$10 (acid wash) per set.
- Zip pockets, back pockets, hidden phone pockets: +$0.80–$1.50 each.
Why does manufacturing a set together save money?
Both pieces are cut from the same lay, so fabric utilisation is higher; one lab dip and one dye batch cover both; labels, hang tags and packing are done once per pair. Separately sourced pieces cost more and, more importantly, arrive in different shades. The fabric decision between terry and fleece is covered in French terry vs fleece.
Worked example: 100 matching sets
Spec: 400 GSM 100% cotton fleece, oversized hoodie plus relaxed jogger, charcoal, matching left-chest and left-thigh embroidery, woven labels, hang tags, paired packing. Factory price at 100 sets: about $38 per set, $3,800. Sample set: $110, credited. DDP air freight to Atlanta: about $900. Landed: $47 per set. At $160 retail, a 71% gross margin.
