Hiking Jacket Manufacturer

For hiking and outdoor shells, MOQs commonly start around 100 pieces per colour and style with full size runs inside. Cost is driven by shell fabric, membrane and seam sealing level, plus the amount of functional details and branding you choose. After the brief we move through fabric selection, fit block, branding tests, pre-production samples and approvals, then bulk with inline QC and final packing before shipment. 

Trail and bike customers need different fits, so we offer closer athletic blocks for performance shells and more relaxed or boxy fits for lifestyle pieces. Our grading follows US/UK/EU expectations with typical XS–3XL ranges, and we adjust sleeve articulation, back length and hood volume to match how your end customers actually wear the jackets. 

Outdoor jackets need durable, visible branding, so we offer embroidery, classic prints, high-density logos and reflective transfers that stand out in low light. Rubber, silicone and woven patches can be placed on chest, sleeves, yoke or hood, and we coordinate neck labels, care labels, hangtags and cartons so every delivery matches your brand system. 

Beyond basic shells we can develop reversible jackets, mixed-fabric panels and colour blocking that ties into your brand line. Functional upgrades include articulated elbows, dropped hems, adjustable cuffs and hoods that work with caps or helmets. Packable versions fold into a dedicated pocket, making them easy to carry for travel or trail use. 

For pure windbreakers and running shells we often use unlined or mesh-lined constructions to keep weight and pack size low. For cooler climates you can choose smooth taffeta or brushed linings, or build a system where a separate insulated mid-layer works under the shell so your customers can adjust warmth by season. 

For active use we start with lighter, breathable shells and then add details like back vents, mesh-lined openings and optional pit zips. Cycling-specific pieces can include drop tails, elastic or silicone grippers and strategically placed perforations so riders stay protected from wind and showers without overheating.

We source outdoor-grade nylon and polyester shell fabrics in different weights and weaves, including ripstop and smooth options. Depending on your performance tier, we can add DWR treatment, PU coatings or breathable laminations and then specify fully or partially taped seams so the jacket meets your target water resistance and price point. 

Vanrd develops a full outdoor range including hiking shells, softshell jackets with stretch, lightweight windbreakers and packable jackets that fold into their own pocket. We can tune patterns for trail, running, cycling or commuting so your line-up has the right balance of protection, weight and movement for each use case.
