Men's Cardigans

30 pieces per colour using stock yarn. That figure is the same across all 63 published men's cardigans, including chunky and pattern-led styles. Custom-dyed colours carry a mill minimum on the yarn itself, which we quote separately.

44 of our 63 published cardigans sit at 7GG-12GG, and that is where a cardigan programme normally belongs. Only 9 are chunky 3GG-5GG - those photograph well but weigh more per piece and cost more to ship. We run 3GG to 18GG in house and confirm the band once the yarn and target fabric weight are fixed.

Our published index median for cardigans is USD 19.73 per piece FOB at MOQ 30. The fibre moves that far more than the silhouette does: wool blend sits at USD 17.36, cashmere blend at USD 31.48, and cashmere on a wool base at USD 66.05. 44 of the 52 priced cardigans are wool blend.

The zip. A metal zip in a custom length or with a branded puller needs its own sourcing window, and that window sits before knitting rather than after. The zip also changes the front band construction, which is the hardest part of a cardigan to get right. Across our 63 published men's cardigans, 28 name a zip and 23 name a button, with 4 shawl-front styles - no style carries both.

Samples run 15-25 days from a confirmed tech pack and yarn. Bulk is 30-45 days after sample approval, depending on quantity. Yarn dyeing sits inside that and cannot be compressed - it is 4-8 weeks at the mill for a dyed-to-order colour.

We focus on heren truien, cardigans, gebreide jacks, jacquard knitwear en private label knitwear. We ondersteuning B2B-kopers met OEM/ODM ontwikkeling, sampling en bulkproductie planning.
