Custom Sweatpants Manufacturer

Sweatpants are judged at the crotch and the cuff. A short rise pulls, a shallow gusset rips and a thin cuff sags over shoes. Brands that only order tops from a factory rarely know how much pattern work a good pant needs.

We manufacture custom sweatpants and joggers in 320 to 500 GSM fleece or French terry, with a graded rise, reinforced gusset, elastic-and-drawcord waistband, side-seam pockets and a rib cuff, open hem or elasticated hem. As a custom sweatpants manufacturer, Mike Apparel runs 50-piece minimums, samples every style before bulk and turns production in 2–3 weeks, with your labels sewn in at the factory.

Fabrics we run for sweatsuits

We hold these fabrics for sweatsuits and knit or weave others to spec. Each has a different hand, drape and shrink profile, and the sample stage exists so you can feel the difference before committing 50 pieces to it. For the sweatpants most brands start with 350 GSM brushed fleece and step up to 400 GSM heavyweight fleece when they want heavyweight sweatpant.

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. Sweatpants buyers most often specify: tapered jogger with rib cuff.

• Tapered jogger with rib cuff
• Straight-leg sweatpant with open hem
• Wide-leg or balloon pant
• Flare sweatpant

What is inside the seams

The stitch, rib, thread and hardware choices below are what separate a factory sweatsuit from a promotional blank. All are standard on our runs. On a sweatpants the detail buyers notice first is the waistband 5–8 cm with encased elastic and flat drawcord.

• Waistband 5–8 cm with encased elastic and flat drawcord
• Diamond gusset at crotch for range of motion
• Side-seam pockets with bar tacks; optional back patch or zip pocket
• Rib cuff 8–10 cm or clean open hem
• Rise graded per size, US sizing

Embellishment and wash

Every embellishment listed here is produced in our own print, embroidery and wash departments in Sialkot. Panels are decorated before assembly where placement demands it. Sweatpants artwork usually goes on as left-thigh embroidery.

• Left-thigh embroidery
• Side-seam and leg prints
• Garment dye and washes
• Contrast drawcords and tips
• Woven waistband label

Private label, labels and packaging

Private label is included, not an upsell. A custom sweatsuit 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. For sweatpants orders we recommend a woven neck label plus a printed care label as the minimum; hang tags and streetwear bottoms packaging are added at your choice.

What a custom sweatsuit costs

What a custom sweatsuit costs depends on the cloth, how much decoration it carries and how many you order. These are representative per-set ranges for the options above; your quote lists fabric, trims, decoration, labels and packaging separately. A sweatpants specified in 350 GSM brushed fleece sits at the lower end of these bands; 400 GSM heavyweight fleece and heavy decoration push it toward $25.

Quoted prices exclude freight; we quote DDP separately so you see the landed cost to your door. Sample fees are credited against the bulk order. For a full walkthrough of what drives the number, read our how much does a custom sweatsuit cost to produce?. Sweatpants reorders skip the sample fee entirely and are priced at the band of the total quantity ordered to date.

Lead time and production process

How an order for sweatsuits moves through the factory, with the timing for each stage. A first sweatpants 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 sweatsuit with target quantity. We reply with fabric options, MOQ and per-set pricing.
2. Pre-production sample (7–10 days)One sweatsuit 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.

Delivery to the USA and beyond

We built our sweatsuit programme around US brands: sampling calls in Eastern and Pacific time, US sizing on every block, and DDP delivery to your door or your fulfilment centre with nothing to pay at the border. Brands in New York, Chicago and across the country reorder on the same block every season. Details on streetwear manufacturing for USA brands and DDP shipping. Sweatpants orders to the USA are usually air-freighted; a 50-piece run weighs little enough that air costs only a few dollars per set more than sea.
