Your Activewear Brand

Design more.
Launch sooner.

A strong activewear collection typically includes 4 to 6 styles, such as 2 tops, leggings, and training shorts. Brands focused on Padel or court sports often add dresses and skorts to these essentials.

We recommend sampling one or two more styles than you intend to sell. Choose the best options, remove those that do not fit, or keep all. The $30 development fee per design is credited toward your bulk order, and additional sampling has minimal impact on cost or timeline.

Successful brands provide themselves with options from the start. Launching with only two or three styles in separate rounds results in double shipping costs and longer wait times.

If you plan to order fewer than four styles, please note that we are a production house rather than a design studio. We may not be the right fit for personal projects. Established brands wishing to test our quality are welcome; please include your brand name and website when contacting us.

Three Ways to Start

If activewear is a way of life and you want to run your own private label, you’re in the right place. Bring your collection of designs and some savvy social media skills, and you’re most of the way to running your own recycled activewear label.
Costing starts with a handover of the styles you want made: your styles, ours or a combination. At this stage, we only need to know which styles run plain and which run printed. Exact colours and prints come later.

01 Custom Designs

Send front and back images, tech packs or clear line drawings, with any changes noted. Word or PDF, by email or WhatsApp.

02 Ready Designs

Our designs, already patterned and graded to international body sizes and cleared for bulk. Buy from the shop, or list the codes on a sample request form.

03 Mix N Match

Combine our styles with your own shapes by adding our codes to the form. Or send screenshots by email or WhatsApp with your notes.

Performance
Fabrics & Colours

Our fabrics are imported from the USA and Korea under our tax-free import licence, saving up to 35% on landed fabric costs compared with other Bali activewear producers. We stock 85+ colours across three recycled performance fabrics, ready for production.

Comfort Luxe (USA) is our most popular fabric, with a soft, buttery feel and medium compression. Motion Luxe (USA) has a peach-skin feel, moisture-wicking performance and excellent shape retention. Air Court is designed for tennis dresses, skorts and courtwear, it holds firm through fast direction changes and stays opaque through every serve.

All fabrics are 4-way stretch, breathable and squat-proof, with body-sculpting support for training or everyday wear.

Fabric Swatch Packs
Every USD 75 you spend on a swatch pack comes back to you in full when you place your first bulk PO, with DHL Express delivery included. Test the compression and stretch of each fabric before you sample. Your pack includes real swatches in selected colours, matching laser-printed colour cards, a custom-branded jacquard waistband and commonly requested accessories.

Here is a typical start-up activewear handover: reference images, requested changes and selected colours, which we use to price each style before sampling. We create and adjust patterns digitally in 2D AutoCAD, using international body sizing, allowing changes to be made in minutes rather than days.

Note: We do not accept highly complex styles or AI-generated imagery.

Sampling

Once you have paid for your samples, we offer a free mock-up service, allowing you to visualize how your designs look on a 2D model in your selected colours & or prints. This allows you to make any last-minute adjustments before we start cutting the fabrics for your samples. Every piece will be custom-branded with your logo, heat-pressed inside the back, tagged, barcoded, and boxed. Your dedicated activewear merchant confirms all details before sampling begins and walks you through bulk ordering so you’re ready to move the moment samples arrive.

Timeline
  • Sampling: 1-3 weeks depending on complexity or once we have fabrics and accessories in hand.
  • Review and selection: 1 week
  • Bulk production: 3 to 5 weeks once fabrics are in hand.
  • Shipping: 3 to 5 days via DHL Express.

Thinking about budget?

Our activewear budgeting guide explains how to achieve the best performance product at the lowest cost and in the shortest time, using clear language for activewear brands.

What support is available after sampling?

Support

Your merchant continues to support you after sampling, assisting with order collation across styles, colours, and sizes to efficiently meet minimum order quantities. They also advise on fabric selection, prints, and custom branding, including elasticated jacquard waistbands, under-bust bands, heat-press labels, and shelf-ready packaging. This support is also available to brands ordering directly from our ready-to-order range.
