Debunking 5 Myths About Custom Apparel Manufacturing

At Apparels Yard, we’ve been crafting custom apparel in Sialkot, Pakistan, for startups, streetwear brands, influencers, and small businesses worldwide. Over time, we’ve heard plenty of misconceptions about custom apparel manufacturing that hold brands back from bringing their ideas to life. Let’s set the record straight by debunking five common myths and showing how our process makes it easy, affordable, and reliable to create your clothing line.

Myth 1: Custom Apparel Is Only for Big Brands

Truth: Custom apparel isn’t just for the big players. At Apparels Yard, we specialize in working with startups and small businesses, offering small-batch production to fit your needs. Whether you’re an influencer launching a limited-edition hoodie or a startup testing a new t-shirt design, we make it accessible with no minimum order restrictions. You don’t need a massive budget or a global presence—we’re here to help you grow from the ground up.

Myth 2: Overseas Manufacturing Means Poor Quality

Truth: Sialkot, Pakistan, is a global hub for high-quality textile manufacturing, and we take pride in our craft. Our team ensures every piece—whether it’s a tracksuit or gym wear—meets premium standards through careful fabric sourcing, precision printing (like screen printing, DTG, or puff printing), and detailed stitching. We’ve worked with brands worldwide who rave about our quality, proving that overseas doesn’t mean cutting corners.

Myth 3: The Process Is Too Complicated

Truth: We’ve streamlined custom apparel manufacturing to be as simple as possible. Forget complicated cart systems—at Apparels Yard, it’s all about direct communication. You send us your design and requirements via email, we guide you through the details (including payment via bank transfer or PayPal), and we handle the rest, from fabric to final production. It’s a smooth, personal experience designed to bring your vision to life without the headache.

Myth 4: Custom Apparel Takes Forever to Produce

Truth: Production timelines depend on your order size and complexity, but we’re built for efficiency. Small batches can be turned around quickly—often in a matter of weeks—because we manage everything in-house in Sialkot. Need a seasonal drop for Christmas or Eid? We’ve got you covered with timely production that aligns with your campaign schedule. Just let us know your timeline, and we’ll make it happen.

Myth 5: You Can’t Afford Unique Features Like Embroidery or Reflective Prints

Truth: Premium features don’t have to break the bank. We offer a range of techniques—2D/3D embroidery, chenille, reflective printing, embossing, and more—at competitive prices. Want a hoodie with a bold 3D embroidered logo or a jacket with reflective accents for nightlife? We’ll work with your budget to make it happen, ensuring your apparel stands out without costing a fortune.
