Custom Sleeve & Knee Sleeve — Cotton with Overlocked Edge
We supply sleeve & knee sleeve to brands, retailers and uniform programmes, made in Cotton with overlocked edge for denim and workwear programmes. On a piece like this the specification that decides whether it sells or comes back is recovery after repeated stretching, because a bagged sleeve is dead — so that is agreed in writing before bulk, not discovered after the shipment lands. Programmes start at 2000 pieces per style.
The failures here are predictable: a supplier who disappears once the deposit is paid, or minimum order quantities far above what a growing brand can absorb. We lock material, construction, measurement and tolerance on a pre-production sample, and prepare CPSIA and California Prop 65 compliance so the container clears instead of missing the season it was bought for.

Packing, testing and delivery
Pieces are packed to the ratio you specify — by size, by colour or by style set — with barcodes applied where the channel needs them. Test reports for OEKO-TEX Standard 100 for dyes and trims are prepared for the destination market. We ship to Los Angeles or New York with invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, and keep the approved reference on file so reorders reproduce the same material, the same construction and the same recovery after repeated stretching.
FAQ
Can you match a reference sample?
Yes. Send the trim and we match material, finish and shade, then confirm on a pre-production sample before bulk.
How long does sampling take?
A first sample takes 12 working days, and each revision about 5 days.
How do you control colour on reorders?
The approved reference and the bulk standard are retained, and every reorder is checked against them before shipment.
What packing options are available?
Bulk packed, carded, or packed to your own size and design ratio with barcodes applied.
