What Our Clients Are Saying About Us
★★★★★
Rebecca M.
"What we needed was very unique. It would have taken us months of full-time work to locate and verify the factory that could produce what we needed. The people at World Clothing Manufacturers took a few minutes to get to know us and put those 3 best factories right in our lap. It saved what could have been tens of thousands of dollars in lost time and lessons learned."
★★★★★

"We just needed to move our manufacturing from Asia to the U.S. and WCM gave us 2 great options and we are now in the process of manufacturing within a reliable supply chain."
★★★★★
Geoff G.
"The service providers in the clothing world are very "underground," they were hard to find and connect with until we worked with the people of World Clothing Manufacturers. They asked a few questions to find out what we really needed then made an introduction to factories and service providers that could get our product produced for a great price."

Sketching & Design
It all begins with an idea. Whether it is a t-shirt or a technical piece of outerwear, we have the design professionals to capture every little detail that makes a piece of clothing unique. Sketching and design is only the first step, but it will drive the process and significantly impact the subsequent steps.

Pattern-making
Once your apparel illustration is complete and your design and vision are captured, we can begin the pattern-making process. Pattern-making is where professionals come in and create the manufacturing plans needed for mass production. These are highly technical cut & sew patterns created in CAD software so that any sophisticated factory can print them and begin cutting.
Begin the Pattern Process
Sample Making
Sample making is when we see the fruit of our labors and is one of our favorite steps. Once pattern-making is complete, we cut & sew samples to prove the fit of the clothing in the base size and test any materials that may have been in question. This crucial step allows us to test the apparel items and ensure they perform as intended.
Begin Sample Making
Size Grading
Your samples are done, tested, and approved. Now it is time to replicate the patterns in each size. Size grading is a highly technical process developed with CAD software but should only be performed by experienced professionals. Add sizes for your clothing and apparel is part of your market strategy, and once it is complete, we will go through a whole new sampling and fit testing process.

Material Sourcing
We know that if you are experiencing frustration, it is likely because you have tried to source your materials in a complex and broken material sourcing world.

We can help you find hardware, knits, drawstrings, aglets, custom elastic, woven fabric, and almost anything else.

Manufacturing is multi-faceted, and numerous factories can manufacture or cut & sew all products.

Product Packaging
The finishing touches on your products are how they are packaged. It can be as easy as folded clothing in a clear poly bag or as complex as custom boxes, tags, wraps, and embossed lettering. Typically, the same factory cutting and sewing your styles will receive the packaging materials to fold and package your products exactly as you want. The packaging process may entail designing and procuring packaging materials or folding and inserting them into a sealed poly bag.
