Custom 380GSM Quarter-Zip Sweatshirt | Funnel Neck OEM

[Product Overview]

This is a 380GSM brushed-back cotton fleece quarter-zip sweatshirt with a funnel stand collar and a boxy oversized cut, produced to order for streetwear, lifestyle and corporate brands. Minimum order is 100 pieces per colour, sampling takes 7–10 days, and bulk production runs 25–35 days. Custom labels, zip pullers and packaging are included in the unit price.

Key Selling Points

• 380GSM brushed-back fleece, not a thin terry. The body holds a structured boxy shape after repeated washing instead of collapsing at the shoulder — the single most common complaint buyers raise about lightweight sweatshirts.
• Two-piece funnel collar with a metal half-zip. The collar stands upright with or without the zip closed, so the garment photographs well on a hanger and reads as outerwear rather than loungewear.
• Drop shoulder with a straight body block. Sleeves sit off the shoulder and the body falls straight from chest to hem, which is the silhouette streetwear buyers are currently specifying for unisex ranges.
• Wide 2x2 ribbed cuffs and hem. Rib depth is matched to the 380GSM body so the bands do not pucker, and the hem sits at high hip on a size M.
• Full private label support. Woven neck labels, printed care labels, custom zip pullers, hangtags and poly bags are produced in-house and attached before packing, so the garment arrives retail-ready.

Customization Options

Every element above the fabric can be changed. On the decoration side we run screen print up to six colours, puff print for raised graphics, discharge print for soft-hand light graphics on dark grounds, and multi-head embroidery for chest logos up to 12 colours. The half-zip accepts a custom-shaped metal puller, which is the detail buyers most often use to make a stock silhouette look like their own.

On branding, woven neck labels, satin or printed care labels, size labels, hangtags and custom poly bags are all produced against your artwork. Colour matching is done through lab dips: we send two dip options per Pantone reference, you approve one, and the bulk is dyed to that standard. If you already have a tech pack, send it and we will quote against your measurements rather than ours.

Applications & Target Buyers

• Streetwear and DTC brands building a heavyweight layering piece for autumn and winter drops.
• Corporate and team merchandise where a collared garment reads more formal than a hoodie but still carries a large chest logo.
• Outdoor and lifestyle labels needing a mid-layer that packs flat and does not bulk up under a shell.
• Retail private label programmes testing a quarter-zip before committing to a full seasonal range.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is the minimum order for a custom quarter-zip sweatshirt?
A: 100 pieces per colour per style. Mixed sizes within one colour count toward the same 100 pieces, so a first order can be split across XS–3XL.

Q2: Is 380GSM too heavy for year-round wear?
A: It is a cold-weather weight. For spring and autumn ranges we recommend the same block in 320GSM, which we also produce; the pattern and trim stay identical so both weights can sit in one collection.

Q3: Can you match a colour from a photo or an existing garment?
A: We prefer a Pantone reference, but a physical swatch or garment sample works too. Lab dips take 5–7 days and we send two options per colour before bulk.

Q4: How does the funnel collar behave after washing?
A: The collar is a two-piece cut with interfacing in the stand, so it keeps its shape. We recommend cold wash and flat drying; the fabric is pre-shrunk and tested to under 3% shrinkage.

Q5: Can you produce this in organic cotton?
A: Yes. GOTS-certified organic cotton fleece is available on request; it adds roughly 8–12% to fabric cost and 10–15 days to the lead time because of certification paperwork.

Q6: Do you supply the zipper, or do we source it?
A: We supply it. Standard is a metal half-zip from a local YKK-equivalent supplier; branded YKK or SBS tape can be specified if your buyer requires it.

Q7: What do you need from us to quote?
A: Target quantity per colour, size range, decoration method and placement, label artwork if you have it, and your delivery date. A tech pack is helpful but not required — we can quote from a reference garment.
