How Custom Beanie Orders Work

Start with a reference or a short brief. We develop the specification, make a sample for approval and produce the order in our own factory, with clear checks before shipment.

1. Share Your Idea or Reference

A photo, drawing, sample or design description is enough to begin. We help turn it into the written brief needed for a quote.

  • Starting point Share the style, intended use and estimated quantity.
  • Product details Add material, size, color and construction requirements if known.
  • Branding Include any logo, label or packaging ideas.
  • Delivery target Tell us the destination and date. We identify the details still needed.

2. Review the Written Quotation

We check yarn supply, construction, decoration, packaging and factory scheduling before confirming the commercial terms.

  • Feasibility Review materials, structure, logo method and packaging.
  • Order requirements Confirm quantity, tests, destination, trade term, samples and schedule.
  • Written terms The quote lists price, MOQ, sample terms, payment, estimated timing, delivery terms and known charges.
  • Changes A different specification, quantity or deadline may require a revised quote and schedule.

3. Develop the Pre-Production Sample

Once we agree on the specification, sample fee and freight, we make a physical sample for your approval before production.

  • Final references Supply final artwork, Pantone references or color samples and measurements.
  • Complete product Review yarn, structure, color, fit, logo, workmanship and packing.
  • Sample timing Normally 5–7 days. A 3-day rush option costs extra; availability and complexity affect timing.
  • Revisions The first two revisions are free. Later changes are quoted and agreed before work starts.

Check the sample in person, then send approval or requested changes by email or an accepted platform message.

  • Physical review Check construction, material, color, dimensions, logo, workmanship and packaging.
  • Written approval Confirm the final sample and specification before bulk production.
  • Production reference We record the approved sample, measurements and changes for the factory.

  • Three inspection stages IQC checks materials, IPQC checks work in progress and FQC checks finished goods.
  • Order updates Receive the agreed progress updates and photos or video of completed production.
  • Your inspection Arrange a third-party inspection before shipment if required.

Ordering and Sampling Questions

Understand the approvals, fees and timing before placing an order.

No. Start with a style reference, a design idea or a sample and an estimated quantity. For an accurate quote, we confirm material, measurements, colors, branding, labels, packaging, destination, target date and any testing or trade-term requirements.
Standard pre-production sampling normally takes 5–7 days, with a 3-day rush option at extra cost. Sample fees and freight are quoted for the project; the sample fee may be refunded at the agreed bulk quantity. The first two revisions are free, and further changes are confirmed separately. Approve the physical sample before production.
After you approve the physical sample and final specification in writing, accept the order documents and pay the 50% deposit. Packaging, testing and other production requirements must also be finalized.
We use IQC for incoming yarn and accessories, IPQC during production and FQC for finished beanies and packing. Full inspection or AQL sampling can be agreed. You may also arrange a third-party inspection before shipment.
Regular bulk production typically takes 15–20 days after written sample and specification approval and receipt of the 50% deposit. Yarn supply, construction, decoration, quantity, revisions, packaging and factory scheduling can change that estimate. Shipping time is additional and depends on the agreed route, destination and carrier; delivery dates are estimates unless guaranteed in writing.
