Pattern Making & Grading
Our experienced pattern makers transform your digital mockups and measurement charts into precise master patterns, digitally graded across all target size sets (XS to 5XL).
Precision Pattern Drafting, Sustainable Fabric Sourcing, Skilled Tailoring, and Low MOQ Production Built for Overseas Brands & Emerging Labels.
Affix Apparel operates as an industrial-grade cut and sew garment factory headquartered in Los Angeles, California. We bridge the gap between creative fashion concepts and commercial production. Unlike mass pre-made blank print shops, our specialized cut and sew manufacturing builds your clothing completely from scratch—starting from raw fabric rolls to custom patterns, stitching, decoration, and tailored sizing.
Whether you are an established international retailer scaling seasonal drops or an independent designer establishing your inaugural collection, our facility manages every stage under strict quality control protocol. By consolidating pattern creation, fabric relaxing, automated cutting, assembly, and packaging into one audited workflow, we eliminate multi-vendor handoff errors and lower your manufacturing overhead.
Our streamlined 4-gate production system guarantees that your custom garments arrive exactly as approved on the technical spec sheet without compromise on fit or durability.
Our experienced pattern makers transform your digital mockups and measurement charts into precise master patterns, digitally graded across all target size sets (XS to 5XL).
We source certified organic cotton, recycled synthetics, technical blends, and specialty trims directly from vetted mills, performing shrinkage and GSM batch testing.
Fabrics are relaxed and cut using automated laser markers to minimize scrap, then stitched by seasoned garment technicians using specialized seam reinforcement.
Every piece undergoes pre-shipment inspections covering dimensional tolerance, stitch density, seam strength, trimming, ironing, and individual polybagging.
From minimal luxury loungewear to engineered sports performance gear, our factory adapts cutting and sewing methods to fit specific textile characteristics.

Choosing a cut and sew manufacturer determines your brand's reputation for quality. Affix Apparel provides commercial scalability with small-batch flexibility, safeguarding your inventory investments.
We do not print on generic blanks. Every garment panel is custom-cut and stitched to match your proprietary fit specs, neck labels, and brand identity.
Launch market validation runs with low initial capital risk, then seamlessly scale up to multi-thousand-unit production runs without changing factories.
Our centralized production control system provides structured milestones for cutting, stitching, and finishing, protecting your campaign launch dates.
We enforce fair labor practices, safe working conditions, waste-reduction marker efficiency, and offer eco-certified organic and recycled textiles.
Blank decoration involves buying pre-made stock garments and adding prints or embroidery. Cut and sew manufacturing builds garments from scratch using raw fabric, allowing total control over pattern shape, fabric GSM, seam placement, custom paneling, custom neck tags, and exact measurements.
We manufacture a wide range of garments, including t-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts, denim jeans, joggers, activewear, leggings, dresses, jackets, underwear, hats, and specialized sportswear for men, women, and children.
We enforce strict quality control at four critical stages: incoming raw material fabric inspection, pre-production sample fitting, in-line stitching audits during sewing, and final AQL 2.5 statistical inspection covering measurements, print adhesion, thread trimming, and packaging accuracy.
Proto samples and fit samples are completed within 7 to 12 working days. Once the sample is approved and bulk production starts, manufacturing takes 15 to 25 working days depending on order quantity and design complexity.
We offer 100% combed cotton, Supima, French terry, fleece, polyester blends, nylon/spandex, bamboo, denim, and certified OEKO-TEX and USDA organic sustainable fabrics upon request.
