Product Specification
Materials, sock height, logos, and pattern options

MOQ, Samples And Lead Time
Plan sampling and bulk production before the order becomes urgent
MOQ, sample approval, packaging, and production timing should be discussed together because each one affects the final quote and delivery plan.
MOQ
Typical MOQ starts from 100 pairs per design; team orders should plan youth/adult size ratios and extra pairs before approval.
Bulk production lead time
Bulk production is usually 15-25 days after sample approval; camps and tournaments should plan by fixed event dates.
Sample process
1
Send sport use case, quantity, size split, logo files, color direction, and target delivery date.
2
Receive a digital mockup and material recommendation for approval before physical sampling.
3
Approve or revise the physical sample for fit, color, logo clarity, thickness, and packaging direction.
4
Lock bulk specs, packaging, carton marks, and shipping method before production scheduling.
Packaging And QC
Packaging options and quality control before shipment
Core commercial pages should make the production promise clear: packaging, labels, inspection, and pre-shipment checks matter as much as the design.
Packaging options
- Bulk polybags for teams, clubs, events, and distributor warehouse handling.
- Branded sleeve cards, hang tags, belly bands, and barcode labels for retail programs.
- Private label polybags, size stickers, carton marks, and SKU separation for marketplace or wholesale delivery.
- Gift boxes or multi-pair packs when the order is positioned as merch, premium retail, or corporate gifting.
Quality control
- Yarn lot and color inspection before knitting starts.
- In-line checks for logo clarity, pattern alignment, size grading, cushion placement, and stretch recovery.
- Pairing, boarding, labeling, packaging, and carton-mark inspection before goods are released.
- Pre-shipment review with photos, measurements, defect notes, and corrective actions when needed.

FAQ
Common buyer questions
These answers cover the main decisions buyers usually need before sending an RFQ.
What height is best for custom basketball socks?
Crew and mid-calf are the most common because they provide strong logo visibility, court-ready coverage, and a classic basketball look.
Can you add player numbers or team mascots?
Yes. Jacquard knitting can support numbers, mascots, stripes, slogans, and color blocks when the artwork is simplified for sock scale.
Can basketball socks be cushioned?
Yes. We can add terry cushion, reinforced heel/toe areas, ribbed cuffs, and arch support depending on the target feel.
