Technical specs and quality assurance
  • Fabrics & Finishes: Premium polyester-spandex knits (micro-mesh, interlock, stretch-knit) treated with advanced hydrophilic, anti-microbial, anti-odor, and anti-UV finishes to ensure freshness, sun protection, and comfort during extended outdoor runs.
  • Patterning & Construction: Running-specific mobility patterns with ergonomic waistbands and split side panels for unrestricted stride. We use flatlock seams to eliminate chafing and reinforced stitching at pocket stress points for long-lasting durability.
  • Verification & QC: Rigorous testing support for air permeability, wicking speed, seam strength, stretch recovery, and colorfastness to light and washing. Every batch undergoes AQL 2.5/4.0 inspection to ensure consistent quality.
  • Milestones: Sampling (10/18 days) → PP Approval → Bulk Production (25/35 days). We ensure traceability from raw material sourcing to the final packaged apparel.

Common questions from running clubs, brands, and apparel buyers

What makes your running shorts so breathable for long-distance runs?

We utilize specialized micro-mesh and open-knit structures that maximize air circulation (verified by ASTM D737). Combined with hydrophilic finishes, this allows body heat and sweat to escape rapidly, keeping runners cool and dry.
Yes, we offer full Pantone color matching for both stock and custom dyed fabrics. We support various customization techniques including full sublimation, screen printing, and silicone heat transfers for brand logos and sponsor placements.
Our MOQ is 200 pcs for stock fabrics and 500 pcs for custom dyed fabrics. Samples take 10-18 days, and bulk production takes 25-35 days after approval.

The breathability of these performance shorts is outstanding. Our marathon team stays noticeably cooler and drier during summer races, and the four-way stretch allows for complete freedom of movement.

Apparel Brand Owner, Australia
