Clothing
that is dyed in your colours and made to your unique design looks far better
than me-too off the shelf clothing that is simply branded in the UK but the
problem has always been reliability of supply. There is no doubt that Bespoke
Clothing has more gravitas and percieved value than off the shelf clothing and
makes a more impressive gift.
Deckard have
supplied Bespoke Clothing for 20 years and have established
relationship with reliable good quality ethically audited factories.
We started
as Identity Textiles importing high quality Bespoke T-shirts, polos, and fleece from Turkey. They
were great quality but Turkey was expensive so we had to look further
afield. Our main goal has always been
reliable quality and honest suppliers. If something is going to be late, they
must admit to this early on so we can see what else can be done and the bulk
order must conform to the approved proof sample quality.
We have
sourced from many factories in Bangladesh, Pakistan & China but we prefer
Chinese Factories as they are more reliable and will do smaller volumes. Their
prices are higher because of duty but this is our position. I read that Walmart account for a large % of
Bangladeshi production but they were considering their position as they could
not control the quality or the business ethics of the factories they use.
We realised that
if Walmart cannot control this with their huge resources what chance do we
stand? So, we buy from China and the factories
we deal with are ethically audited, produce good quality garments and branding
and are reliable. Our factories only use Japanese embroidery machines
for their branding.
Over the
years we have produced the following garments:
·
Polyester
breathable T Shirts (Cotton T shirts are too expensive in China compared to
Bangladesh so it is unlikely we will be competitive on price for these but our
quality is good)
·
Polo
shirts – Our factory makes for leading brands and are great quality.
·
Fleece – we supply lined and unlined micro fleece jacket.
·
Sweatshirts – we have supplied some great knitted garments but not
standard sweatshirts.
·
Softshell
Jacket
·
Lightweight
mesh lined and quilted jackets.
·
Heavy
duty Rain & Wind proof Outer jacket
·
2
in 1 Shower proof Rain Jacket
·
Baseball caps, scarves, and Knitted hats
·
Sublimation
printed breathable polyester sports vests & T- shirts.
The
factories prefer a MOQ of 1000 but will consider orders of 500 if they can get
the fabric, The Chinese Government has closed many dye houses as part of their
anti pollution drive so the remaining
dye houses are more selective of which projects they will accept (Many
won’t consider orders of less than 1000 pieces and those that do will charge a
premium)
Branded
Accessories
We can add
woven neck labels, raised PVC labels, Hang Tags, 3D PVC & Metal moulded zip
pulls and badges etc to make the garments look more retail quantity with only a
modest impact on price. The difference in quality between retail and
promotional garments can be exaggerated but by simply adding a woven neck label
you make the garment unique to your brand instead of being another off the
shelf promo polo shirt
Usually,
jackets take 60-70 days and polo shirts 50 days and we can ship by sea in 45
days although Freight by train is looking attractive in 30 days for only a
modest premium.
If you check
our web site, we show photos of garments that we have supplied previously on an
ongoing basis so many customers have reordered being 100% satisfied with our
products and service. We charge 50% with order with the balance on delivery and
we guarantee we will deliver good quality garments on time.
