Sampling
PJGARMENT Garment proofing (sample development) means we develop your design concept into a product: shape, fit, construction, sewing method – all the details come together into a finished sample for your inspection. All samples are made in-house with a fast turnaround and a capacity of over 300 + samples per month.
For your question: for example, if the design elements are made into a garment sample, then you can next check out the garment sample options we give.
We offer two ways to order samples, either via our products, or using traditional manual ordering methods. You can choose from our extensive ready design range, develop your own custom designs or a combination of both.
If you are interested in our ready designs you may choose to skip sampling altogether and directly place a bulk order saving you time and money.

What to choose?
It’s really up to you. But if this is your first business and you have little or no experience in fashion then we do recommend you to focus on Ready Design either partially or fully. You can still customize them a lot and the range is wide. This leaves more time, budget and energy to focus on the establishment, marketing and development of your brand rather than design think. You can still customize them .
If you are on a slim start-up budget – go with our shop. There are no development costs and combined with free shipping, it can really add up to some major savings. The shop also has a low MOQ of 100 for bulk orders.
However, if you have any dream designs that you want to turn into a real product, this is where we can take your line further with your own custom swimwear design and turn that imagination into a successful business.
Custom Design
FULLY CUSTOMIZED DESIGN
This is where we turn the design in your head into a real thing. You can send your screenshots of any products that you want to develop and our sample team would be ready to assist you along the way. You can also take inspiration from our ready range and change the designs or combine our designs with whatever ideas you may have.
- Note to designers
We accept DXF (Gerber/AutoCAD) and DGS file formats for CAD. Your own format for tech packs are also very welcome.
CUSTOM READY DESIGN
Here you can take our ready design as inspiration and add your own twist. You can add your own hardwares and accessories, do your own custom print (which we can do in house), add your label and you’re ready to sell. If you have chosen your color or print, we will do design mockups for your approval so you get a sense of how your designs will look like.
Labels, Packaging & Accessories
During sample development you better also finalize all your label needs such as heat transfer label, hang tags, gift bags and so on. This can be done alongside your products, to save time later for bulk production.
Undeveloped labels will significantly delay the start of your bulk order – so make sure it’s done with your samples.
Step by step
Here is our basic process for customization When you order a sample, if you are interested in a custom print, we all send you a digital mockup for your approval, then we do a test print on a 30×30 cm sample and send it to you through the image so that you can approve the color of the print. You can follow this process to determine the sample and communicate with us to place the order when you place the order.
Size Guide
Please refer to our size charts here. Make sure our sizes align with your target market or adjust your size orders to fit. We can easily change the size label to match, example if you find our sizes to be too small for your market.
Shipping
Your samples are shipped with DHL Express, and will usually arrive within 4-7 working days.
