Built close to the decisions

One factory. Many ways in.

Begin with the nearest proven construction, then develop the fabric, proportion and finish around your brand.

The category atlas

Choose the construction family before the details multiply.

Every tile opens its dedicated manufacturing route. MOQ and GSM below come from the current catalogue references—not a universal promise for every custom build.

Capability matrix

Custom does not mean undefined.

Each choice enters the same approval sequence, so creativity stays connected to something that can be sampled, measured and produced.

What brands usually need to know.

See every catalogue reference
What garment categories does White Cotton manufacture?+

Our catalogue covers hoodies, sweatshirts, T-shirts, shirts, outerwear, longsleeves and bottoms. The six manufacturing families below group related constructions so a project can begin with the closest proven reference.

Can an existing style be customised?+

Yes. The catalogue is a starting point: fabric, weight, colour, fit, labels and decoration can be changed around the approved brief. Original designs can also enter through a complete tech pack.

What determines the minimum order?+

The construction and category determine the starting quantity. The current catalogue ranges from 50 units for selected outerwear and bottoms to 100 units for T-shirts and shirts; the exact minimum is confirmed against the chosen style and colour split.

Can certified material be requested?+

Yes. We source certified material routes through partner mills when the project requires them. Availability and the document set are confirmed for the exact fabric before approval; White Cotton does not claim to hold the mill certification.

From reference to production

Bring the garment you want to make.

We will identify the closest route, the decisions still missing and the sample needed to prove it.
