Ask what the minimum applies to
Separate ready-stock pieces, mixed designs, one colour, one size and original logo production. Ask for the minimum per design and per size in writing.
Separate the cost items
Request sample cost, embroidery setup, unit price, domestic delivery, packing and international freight as separate items. A marketplace price is a starting reference, not a landed quote.
Approve a sample before scaling
Confirm the exact shape, club dimensions, materials, artwork and packaging on the sample record. A sample does not guarantee all future production; agree a separate bulk checking plan.
Use this alongside real supplier evidence
These are planning considerations, not test results from the shortlisted suppliers. Our research log explains public signals and their limitations. Confirm the exact requirements with your supplier and relevant specialists before committing funds.
