# Streetwear Manufacturing for Canadian Brands

Source: https://rightgateglobal.com/streetwear-manufacturer-canada

Develop a Canadian streetwear range with clear fabric, fit and branding records from the first sample. Send Right Gate Global your new designs or an existing style reference, then discuss quantities, delivery requirements and the details you want to carry into future orders.

## Create a specification you can use beyond the first order

The first order sets the reference for a style you may want to sell again. Give each garment a name or style code and keep its measurements, material, colour and branding requirements together. Use that record for the quotation and sample review so your team can see which version is being discussed.

If you are continuing an existing style, send the approved specification and explain what should remain consistent. If the product is changing, identify the new material, fit or trim choice as a revision. Keeping the versions separate makes the intended order easier to review.

Compare [T-shirts](/categories/t-shirts), hoodies, sweatshirts and [the full garment range](/products). For a new shape or construction, read about [custom cut and sew manufacturing](/custom-cut-and-sew-manufacturing).

## Review materials as part of the garment

Describe the role of each piece in the collection, including any planned layering. Share the preferred composition, weight and finish, or explain what you want to retain from a reference garment. Record the material option being quoted and the one represented by the development sample.

During review, check the selected material alongside the fit and branding. If the material changes between versions, revisit the relevant garment details rather than assuming the original approval covers the change. The GSM guide sets out useful fabric questions.

## Define the fit of each layer

A tee worn on its own and a sweatshirt intended to sit over it need their own finished measurements. Show the desired chest width, shoulder position, sleeve and body lengths for each garment, with the sample size clearly named. For a jacket, add the fastening, collar or hood details and the room you want to review over other pieces.

If you are using an earlier garment as a fit reference, say which dimensions should stay the same. A change in fabric can change how a familiar silhouette feels, so review the new sample as a complete garment. Include your intended size range and ask which sizes or measurement points need further review before production.

## Allocate stock by style and destination

List each colourway with its size quantities. If you are comparing an initial release with a larger reorder, keep those allocations as separate quote options. Changing the total can also change how many garments share a fabric, colour or decoration setup, so a single overall number is not enough for a useful comparison.

Where stock is going to more than one receiving address, show the quantity assigned to each destination and any separate carton instructions. If the split is undecided, mark it as a planning question. Ask for the proposed packing and delivery arrangement to be included in the order review rather than adding it after the garment specification is approved.

## Keep sample approval and reorder records together

Compare the sample with the agreed measurement chart and artwork placement. Use one feedback list to record changes, with a reference to the sample version. Confirm any provisional trims or decoration before the sample becomes the production reference. [Sampling and product development](/sampling-and-product-development) explains the review stages to agree.

For a later reorder, provide the earlier approved documents and sample reference with the new quantities. Ask for material availability, costs and timing to be reviewed again. The earlier order is a useful reference, but it does not automatically confirm availability or commercial terms for the next one.

## Include the Canadian receiving destination

Send the city, province or territory, postal code and receiving contact for samples and bulk goods. Attach the warehouse or receiving party's packing instructions if they apply. If multiple locations are being considered, identify which address should be used to review the shipping arrangement.

State the required receiving window and the quantities by style, colour and size. Agree the delivery arrangement and schedule alongside the manufacturing quotation. Sampling, revisions, production and shipping need to be considered as separate stages for the individual order.

## Questions from Canadian clothing brands

### Can I use an earlier garment as a development reference?

Include photographs, measurements and the details you want to retain or change. Identify the reference version clearly and confirm what needs to be represented in the new sample.

### What changes need to be recorded for a reorder?

List any changes to fabric, colour, measurements, decoration, labels or packing. Send the new size allocation as well, and ask for availability and terms to be confirmed for that order.

### How should I specify branding?

Supply artwork dimensions and placements, label files and packing requirements with the garment brief. Read the [private label manufacturing guide](/private-label-manufacturing) before finalising the sample requirements.

### Can I add a new colour when repeating a style?

Send the existing approved specification with the new colour reference and quantities. Ask which material, decoration or sample details need review for that colourway, and confirm availability and quotation terms before treating it as a straight repeat.

## Discuss your Canadian collection

Send the current specification, useful references, quantities and Canadian receiving destination. Mark new decisions and any details carried over from an earlier style. [Request a manufacturing quote](/request-a-quote) or [contact the team](/contact) with your development questions.
