Yes, we highly recommend making at least one or more design or prototype after approved from your end, or pre-production sample before going into production. In some cases (such as technical outerwear) it may be necessary to do multiple prototypes. Prototypes are for fit and build purposes only unless specified by the client. This means they will not have branding and may not be the exact fabrics materials or colors of provided samples or production pieces. In most cases, prototypes are either partially or fully refundable on completion of a production order. Estimated time frame for initial prototype order production is 3-4 weeks.

Typically, our team is able to source and match most requested fabrics and materials for our clients world wide. However, we cannot guarantee that we will find what you are looking for in the open markets. If we are not having the fabrics or manufacturing your materials to specific requirements, we are limited to what is available on the open market. During fabric and material sourcing, type and weight will be prioritized, followed by pattern and colors and other requirements. Based on circumstances and availability, production fabric and material may slightly differ from prototypes and salesman samples.
