The Complete Guide to Custom Hoodie Production: From Design to Finished Product
In the fashion industry, custom hoodies have become a powerful way for brands to express identity and build recognition. Whether for streetwear labels, corporate groups, or independent designers, understanding the full production process is essential. This article provides a systematic breakdown of custom hoodie manufacturing—from design and material selection to sampling and mass production—helping you master professional-level customization solutions.
1. Design Phase: Precise Matching of Styles and Techniques

(1)Style Selection:
1)Classic hooded style: Streetwear staple, fits most body types
2)Crewneck casual style: Minimalist and versatile, ideal for layering
3)Oversize cut: Trend-forward with structured silhouette
4)Functional designs: Zippered/details or paneled variations
(2)Pattern & Technique Matching Guide:
1)Large color-block designs → Screen printing
Benefits: Vibrant colors, cost-effective for bulk orders
Note: Requires white underbase for dark fabrics
2)Intricate small logos → Embroidery
Recommended: 15+ stitch density
Best for: Brand emblems, small text
2. Fabric and Trims Selection
Type | Key Characteristics | Ideal For |
100% Cotton | Breathable, prone to pilling | Everyday basics |
Cotton-Poly Blend | Wrinkle-resistant, durable | Promotional/budget pieces |
Fleece | Brushed interior, warmth-focused | Winter collections |
Organic Cotton | Eco-friendly, premium handfeel | Sustainable brands |
Critical Trim Components:
Drawstrings: Cotton/polyester with metal aglets (custom colorable)
Zippers: YKK® for durability (5mm tooth standard)
Pocketing: Loopback jersey lining for comfort
Labels: Woven/printed options (RFID embedding available)
3. Sampling & Revisions (3-Iteration Principle)
(1)Proto Sample
Verify pattern & dimensions against tech packs
Evaluate fabric handfeel & GSM (e.g. 300gsm for秋冬款 → autumn/winter styles)
(2)Fit Sample
Fitting adjustments: sleeve length/hood circumference/hem tightness
Process testing: print color fastness/embroidery thread tension
(3)Pre-Production Sample (PP Sample)
Finalize construction details (stitch density/serging methods)
Confirm trim specifications (drawstring length/zipper functionality)
Note: Each sampling cycle requires 7-10 days (include buffer time).

4. Mass Production Process (For 1000-Piece Order)

(1)Cutting
Automated cutting with ≤1mm tolerance
Layered cutting to prevent fabric distortion
(2)Printing/Embroidery
Screen printing: Requires separate screens per color
Embroidery: Minimum 15-stitch density
DTG: Requires pretreatment for dark fabrics
(3)Sewing
Key techniques:
Double-needle stitching (reinforced seams)
Triple-stitched hems (streetwear standard)
Reinforced hood brims
5. Delivery & Quality Inspection
Delivery Process:
(1)Inspection Standard
AQL 2.5 sampling inspection
Key checks: print/embroidery durability, size tolerance (±1.5cm), trim functionality
(2)Packaging Requirements
Individual PE bags + crush-proof cartons
Clear labeling: style/color/size
(3)Logistics Options
Small batches: express delivery
