01 / MATERIALS & PERFORMANCE
Fabric Composition
Compare these blend options for your preferred fabric feel, stretch, care needs, and opacity review. Final material specifications depend on the selected fabric.
| Blend option | Suitable use | Tradeoff |
|---|---|---|
| 95% polyester / 5% elastane | Structured, easy-care golf short with regular stretch | May feel less soft than a cotton blend |
| 90% polyester / 10% elastane | More movement for an active fit | Higher stretch can change recovery and shape needs |
| 92% nylon / 8% elastane | Smooth, flexible short for frequent movement | Requires review for the desired fabric body and cost target |
| 97% cotton / 3% elastane | Natural-feel short with modest stretch | May need more care and can feel less quick-drying |
| 60% cotton / 37% polyester / 3% elastane | Balanced cotton feel, structure, and light stretch | Needs review for drying behavior and wet-state appearance |
Fabric Weight
GSM means grams per square meter. Use the weight as a selection reference, then assess the actual fabric for body, drape, comfort, and visibility of pocketing.
| Reference weight | Fabric effect | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| 160 g/m² | Lighter body and easier movement | Warm-weather shorts when opacity is acceptable |
| 180 g/m² | Balanced lightness and structure | Versatile golf short development |
| 200 g/m² | More body and a steadier drape | General-season shorts with a structured look |
| 220 g/m² | Fuller body and heavier feel | Cooler conditions or a more substantial short |
Fabric Construction
Stretch plain weave gives a clean surface and controlled structure. Twill adds a visible diagonal texture and a firmer appearance, while a micro-textured woven can add surface interest and support airflow depending on its openness. The construction should be selected with the blend and weight because those choices together affect drape, movement, and how the pocketing appears through light gray fabric.
Performance Features
Elastane or a mechanical-stretch polyester route can support movement, with the amount of stretch affecting recovery and fit. A more open woven construction can improve airflow, but it also requires a careful review of opacity in light gray. Moisture-management or easy-care finishing can be evaluated when relevant to the selected fabric. A water-repellent finish may help with light surface moisture, but its suitability and care behavior depend on the fabric and finish selection.
02 / FIT, SIZING & COLOR
Fit Options
Choose a regular, slim, or loose base garment pattern according to the intended wearer and movement needs. A slim fit gives a closer leg line but leaves less room through the thigh; a loose fit adds movement room but changes the silhouette. Set the waist, hip, rise, inseam, leg opening, and hem together, then compare them with your size chart on the sample.
Sizes
We can work from waist sizes or letter sizes, using your US or customer size chart for waist, hip, rise, inseam, leg opening, and hem measurements. Grading means adjusting the base garment pattern across sizes. Send the intended size breakdown so we can review how the chosen fit and stretch should carry across the program.
Color Options
Gray is the core color for this style. Compare light and dark gray on the actual selected fabric, including a wet-state review, because the shade and fabric density affect sweat marks and the visibility of light pocketing. Other colors, near shades, or Pantone-dyed colors can be evaluated against a color reference and the planned order quantity.
03 / GARMENT CONSTRUCTION
Construction concept / reference build.
Construction Details
The waistband, pocket opening, and leg shape should be reviewed together. A flat front or pleated front changes the visual line and room through the hip and thigh; belt loops support a belt-based fit; an active waistband can add comfort but must be checked with the chosen rise and stretch. Pocket-opening bartacks can be placed where they support the opening without disrupting the clean front. Review pocket-bag color and placement with the shell fabric to reduce unwanted show-through.
04 / YOUR BRAND & PRODUCT SPECIFICATION
Logo Options
Choose the decoration method according to the fabric surface, stretch, artwork size, and placement. Direct embroidery gives a textured mark but needs suitable backing and a stable enough area; an applied embroidered patch adds a separate layer and can feel more noticeable. Heat transfer suits detailed flat artwork, while screen printing suits simple shapes on a compatible surface. A silicone mark or woven label creates a different texture and appearance. Common zones to evaluate include the front pocket area, lower leg, and back pocket area, while keeping the mark clear of high-movement or fold lines. Send vector artwork or a clear reference with intended dimensions.
Customization Scope
Choose the base garment details together with the intended movement and styling. Final choices should be reviewed against the selected fabric, size specification, and sample.
| Area | Choices | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Front | Flat front or pleated front | Sets the clean look and room through the hip and thigh |
| Waist | Standard waistband or active waistband | Balances belt use, stretch, and comfort |
| Waist support | With or without belt loops | Supports the intended belt and styling program |
| Pocket opening | Selected opening shape with optional bartack | Controls access, appearance, and reinforcement placement |
05 / ORDER & DEVELOPMENT PLANNING
Minimum Order Planning
Our minimum order quantity is 300 pieces. Send your preferred quantity and intended size and color breakdown so we can discuss the order details.
Sample Lead Time
Sample lead time is 7–10 days. Use the sample to assess the gray shade in wet conditions, pocket-bag visibility, fabric feel and stretch, waist and rise, leg shape, and logo placement before discussing bulk details.
Bulk Lead Time
Bulk production lead time is 15–30 days. Share your desired delivery schedule with the quantity, fabric direction, color plan, and customization details so we can discuss the production timing.
06 / APPROVAL & APPLICATION
Quality & Approval Checks
Use the selected fabric, size specification, and sample details as references when agreeing quality requirements for this order.
| Quality point | Reference to compare | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Fiber content and GSM | Selected blend and weight target | Confirms the planned fabric specification |
| Wet-state gray appearance | Approved fabric or sample under the agreed review condition | Controls how sweat-related darkening affects the color |
| Pocket-bag visibility | Approved light-gray or gray sample with pocketing in place | Helps manage unwanted show-through |
| Measurements | Size chart for waist, hip, rise, inseam, leg opening, and hem | Aligns grading and movement room across sizes |
| Sewing and decoration | Approved sample, pocket openings, bartacks, and logo position | Checks appearance and placement against the agreed design |
Suitable Bulk Buyers
- Golf apparel brands: develop a consistent gray short with a defined fabric, fit, color review, and logo program.
- Golf clubs and teams: align player or member shorts with selected sizing, colors, and decoration zones.
- Uniform and promotional buyers: coordinate pocket, waistband, and artwork details for a repeatable bulk style.
Target Markets
For US programs, provide the preferred US size chart and intended fit. For warmer destinations, compare lighter weights and airflow with opacity in light gray; for cooler use, consider a heavier fabric reference. Confirm measurement, color, and labeling requirements for the destination market as part of the specification.
