Activewear Manufacturing
Activewear Manufacturing
Expertise & Experience
Manufacturing high-end activewear, including leggings, sports tops, and gym apparel, presents unique challenges due to the nature of stretch fabrics.
- Understanding Fabric Behavior: We test each fabric’s elasticity and recovery to ensure it moves seamlessly with the body while maintaining strength and comfort, even under rigorous movement.
- Power Stitching: We use specialized stitching machines and techniques like coverstitch and flatlock to create durable, flexible seams that move with the fabric while staying strong and comfortable, even during demanding workouts.
- Fit and Contouring: Our expert construction techniques ensure snug, squat-proof designs that contour the body, enhance natural shape, and provide full freedom of movement and superior support.
- Stretch and Recovery: We carefully select performance fabrics with superior recovery properties to prevent sagging or shape loss over time, ensuring long-lasting support and durability.
- Consistency in Sizing: We continuously refine our block patterns using 2D digital pattern-making software to ensure consistency in fit and grading.
Focusing on these key areas, we produce Activewear that combines fit, comfort, and durability, ensuring every piece performs beautifully and feels amazing when worn.

Turning Designs into Reality
Before production begins, our team carefully reviews your handover to ensure every detail meets your specifications. Each piece starts with heat-pressing your custom logo, washing instructions, and sizing details onto the inside back. Our expert sewing team then assembles each panel with millimeter precision, using advanced stitching techniques to create smooth, reinforced seams. With digitized patterns, your designs sculpt and enhance the body, delivering a flawless fit that accentuates natural curves for a youthful, streamlined silhouette.
Quality Control
1. Fabric & Material Inspection – Check for defects, stretch retention, breathability, and colourfastness.
2. Pre-Production Sample Check – Verify fit, stitching, and overall construction before mass production.
3. In-Line Production QC – Inspect cutting, stitching, and printing to ensure durability, precision, and no defects.
4. Post-Production Inspection – Test seam strength, elasticity, moisture-wicking, and squat-proof properties.
5. Random Sampling & AQL Inspection – Spot-check batches for defects, ensuring only high-quality pieces pass.
6. Final Packaging & Shipping Check – Confirm correct labelling, packaging, and size accuracy before dispatch.

Custom Branding
Branded designs sell faster, attract larger reorders, and enhance visibility. For bulk orders, we require your custom logo and layout, heat-pressed inside each piece. You can also feature your logo using elasticated jacquard under the bust or around the waist—similar to Nike’s “Just Do It” slogan and tick symbol.
If you need graphic assistance, our team is ready to help, often free of charge.
Note: To prevent delays, we recommend finalizing branding during the sampling phase.
