How to get custom sherpa fleece jackets manufactured for streetwear brands?

Starting a sherpa jacket line with a private label manufacturer runs in six steps: positioning, fabric and weight, tech pack, first sample, fit revision, then bulk production.

Positioning comes first because a piece sold at a value price point should not follow the same development logic as a premium piece at three times the retail. That single decision sets fabric, construction, decoration budget and packaging.

The practical reference points: fabric options are sherpa fleece in pile heights matched to the target look and fleece-backed or brushed constructions; weight guidance is sherpa pile height and density are the specification, rather than GSM alone; indicative FOB pricing sits in the $15–60+ range. Minimum order is 100 pieces per color per style, sampling takes 7–10 days and bulk production 30–45 days.

The most common mistake is starting with a broad first collection. A focused range of a few styles, produced properly, is what allows a reorder to be built on a proven specification.
