OEM & ODM

OEM and ODM sportswear production

We manufacture to customer specifications and can help with design on request. Send a tech pack, sketch or reference garment and tell us which details are fixed, and we define the development work, sample and approvals for your product.

Private label refers to the brand the garment carries and can apply to either starting point. Before development begins, set out the design work, the approval contact and any file-delivery requirements.

Tell us what is ready and what needs work

You do not need to choose between OEM and ODM before contacting us. A supplied design may still need measurements or artwork placement clarified, while a reference garment may already settle much of the fit and construction.

Separate the fixed requirements from the open choices, for example: keep our crest and colours, use the neckline of this reference and help us develop the sleeve graphic. We can then define the work needed before making a sample.

A design file is only part of the garment specification

With supplied artwork, mark the latest version and show its finished size and position. With a sketch or reference, explain which features it represents. Add the intended use, wearer, fit, approximate quantities and fabric expectations, because they help turn a visual idea into a garment that can be sampled.

We clarify missing measurements, construction choices and branding requirements with you. If you ask for design support, we agree what is to be developed and who will approve it. You review the physical sample before authorising bulk production, and the final size breakdown and label content are confirmed separately.

Questions and answers

Can you quote a custom garment from a sketch only?

Yes, a sketch is enough to start a quotation. Send it with the details marked and a target quantity per style and per colour. We reply with the questions the sketch leaves open, such as fabric, measurements or construction, and the quotation is built on your answers. Design support is available on request for parts that still need developing.

How do we brief the design support we need for an ODM project?

For an ODM or design support project, separate what already exists, such as logos and colours, from layout changes and elements that need a new design, for example: keep our crest and colours, use the neckline of this reference and develop the sleeve graphic. Explain what each sketch, measurement and reference represents, and name the person who approves design proposals. We then define the work before sampling.

Can a reference garment replace a tech pack for development?

A reference garment is enough to begin development, and a tech pack is ideal but not required. Send the garment, or clear photographs of it, and mark what to keep and what to change. The garment itself settles construction questions faster than a written description. We then clarify missing measurements, fabric requirements and branding with you before the sample is made.

Who owns the garment pattern if Voyager Sportswear develops it?

Ownership of a pattern developed by Voyager Sportswear is agreed in writing for your programme. Raise the question in your first message and we answer it before you commit to anything. For design work, also set out what will be developed, who approves it and any file-delivery requirements before development begins.

Send what you have

Send a tech pack, sketch, photograph or description, with quantities and fabric requirements. We usually send an initial response within 24 hours and confirm production details as we assess the brief.
