Inside Rise Sportswear: Our End-to-End Sportswear Manufacturing Process


At Rise Sportswear, we don't just manufacture athletic apparel—we bring performance-driven ideas to life. With years of experience in ODM/OEM services, we specialize in helping brands launch, scale, and lead in the competitive activewear market.

If you're seeking a trusted partner for custom sportswear production, here's a transparent, step-by-step look at how we transform concepts into finished products—all under one roof.

1. Product Development Starts with Performance in Mind

Every collaboration begins with a deep dive into your brand's goals. At Rise Sportswear, we help you evaluate performance needs, target audience preferences, and emerging trends. From there, we recommend fabric types (e.g., sweat-wicking, 4-way stretch, eco-friendly materials) and assist with functional design features.

Our Advantage: We offer dedicated R&D support to ensure your activewear performs just as good as it looks.

2. Tech Pack Creation & Sampling

We work with your design files—or help build them from scratch. Our experienced technical team develops precise tech packs that include:

a. Material specs

b. CAD-based flat sketches

c. Size charts

d. Trim and accessory details

e. Seam construction

Next, we create pre-production samples for review and revisions. Sampling at Rise is fast, flexible, and always quality-first.

3. Sourcing High-Performance Fabrics

Our team works with certified mills to source functional, sustainable, and trend-aligned fabrics. Popular options include:

a. Spandex blends for compression

b. Recycled polyester

c. Bamboo and modal for athleisure

d. Nylon mesh for breathability

We rigorously test materials for colorfastness, elasticity, washability, and more.

4. Pattern Making & Grading

We use industry-standard digital tools to create precise garment patterns, which are then graded into a full-size range. This ensures fit consistency across all body types and production runs.

Why it matters: Accurate grading minimizes returns and enhances customer satisfaction on your end.

5. Precision Fabric Cutting

Our cutting floor is equipped with high-speed automatic cutting machines that ensure clean, efficient cuts and minimal fabric waste. We inspect every panel before it moves to production—because the details matter.

After sublimation printing is complete, each fabric panel is precisely laser-cut to match the design layout. Laser cutting ensures ultra-clean edges, high accuracy, and prevents fraying—making it ideal for detailed graphics and complex shapes. This method also improves production efficiency by minimizing material waste and ensuring consistent sizing across all pieces.

6. Sewing & Assembly by Skilled Technicians

This is where your product comes to life. From flatlock stitching for seamless leggings to bonded seams for performance tops, our sewing team delivers craftsmanship with speed and consistency.

Our production lines are optimized for:

a. Yoga sets

b. Compression wear (rash guard, Vale Tudo shorts, MMA BJJ spats)

c. Athleisure collections

d. Running gear

e. Team sports uniforms

7. Branding & Decoration

Your brand identity matters. At Rise Sportswear, we offer a full suite of branding applications, including:

a. Sublimation printing

b. Heat transfer logos

c. Screen printing

d. Embroidery

e. Silicone or rubberized patches

Rise Sportswear offer a full suite of branding applications - Sublimation printing, Heat transfer logos, Screen printing, Embroidery, Silicone patches and rubberized patches.

8. Strict Quality Control (QC)

b. Stitch strength testing

c. Label and tag placement review

d. Size and fit verification

Our QC team operates on-site, ensuring all products meet Rise Sportswear's standards—and yours.
