Custom Clothing Manufacturer in Istanbul for European & UK Brands
Too Fabric is a custom clothing manufacturer in Istanbul, Türkiye, producing private-label T-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts, joggers, polo shirts and fleece for European and UK brands from 100 pieces per style and fabric colour.

Custom Clothing We Manufacture
We manufacture six core product categories, each from 100 pieces per style and fabric colour. Every style can be produced on our ready-made regular and oversized patterns, developed from hundreds of previous projects, or on a pattern made from your measurement chart or reference garment.
T-Shirts
Regular and oversized T-shirts in 100% cotton single jersey and organic cotton, 160–280 GSM, finished with screen printing or embroidery and your own neck and care labels. For GSM options, indicative prices and the full timeline, read more about working with a T-shirt manufacturer in Turkey.
Sweatshirts, Hoodies and Zip Hoodies
Sweatshirts, hoodies and zip hoodies in 340 GSM brushed fleece (80% cotton, 20% polyester) or 340 and 450 GSM French terry (100% cotton), with embroidery or screen printing, drawcords, eyelets and zips. See all options for custom hoodie manufacturing.
Joggers and Sweatpants
Joggers and sweatpants in matching fleece or French terry, so a full set can be made in one fabric and colour. Elasticated or ribbed cuffs, drawcord waistbands and pocket styles are made to your specification.
Polo Shirts
Polo shirts in 220 GSM piqué (100% cotton) with ribbed collars and cuffs, for brand collections, teams and corporate wear, usually finished with an embroidered logo.
Private-Label Clothing Manufacturing
With private-label clothing manufacturing, the garments are made to your specification and carry only your brand. Too Fabric produces them in Istanbul and packs them ready for your warehouse, your retailers or your customers.
What we add to your garments:
- Woven brand labels, satin care labels and printed (tagless) neck labels
- Size labels, and care and composition labels in the languages of your markets
- Hangtags, individual polybags and branded packaging, with barcode or EAN stickers on request
- Branded trims such as zips, eyelets and drawcords
Logos and artwork are applied by embroidery for a durable, premium finish, by screen printing for sharp, longlasting prints in spot colours, or by transfer printing for multi-colour artwork. We recommend the method after reviewing your artwork, fabric and quantity.
What we need from you: finalised artwork as vector files, and your specifications or a reference garment. Too Fabric does not offer graphic or logo design; we manufacture your design and advise on manufacturing questions such as fabric, fit, print method and placement.
Low-MOQ Clothing Production: Ready-Made or Custom Patterns
Too Fabric’s minimum order quantity is 100 pieces per style and fabric colour, and sizes can be mixed freely within those 100 pieces. You can start on our ready-made patterns or have patterns developed for your brand. The pattern is the only difference: the minimum order, branding and labelling options and lead times are the same.
Whichever pattern you choose, you receive a physical sample in your fabric, with your branding and labels, sent to you by DHL Express. You check the fit, measurements and finish before committing to bulk, and the approved sample becomes the reference for your whole order.
Sample lead times start once specifications and artwork are confirmed; bulk lead times start after sample approval and apply to stock fabrics. Fabric custom-dyed to your Pantone reference starts from about 300 pieces per colour and takes longer.
For a new brand, 100 pieces per style keeps the money tied up in stock low and lets you reorder the styles that sell. Not sure which patterns suit your collection? Send us your references and we will recommend one.

How Custom Clothing Production Works
Too Fabric is the clothing manufacturer responsible for your order from the first sample to delivery. Our Istanbul team develops the pattern, sources and checks the fabric, and runs cutting, embroidery or printing, sewing, finishing, quality control and packing to your approved specification.
- Quotation: Send your references, quantities, fabric and branding details. We reply within 1 hour on average during working hours, then confirm specifications and prices in a written quotation
- Sample: A physical sample on a ready-made or custom pattern, with your fabric, branding and labels, sent to you by DHL Express.
- Approval: You check fit, measurements, fabric, colour, branding and labels. The approved sample becomes the reference for bulk production.
- Bulk production: Fabric preparation, cutting, embroidery or printing, sewing and finishing.
- Quality control: In-line checks during sewing and a final inspection against the approved sample before packing.
- Delivery: Packed by style, colour and size in export cartons with the export documents, then delivered by road to most European destinations in 10–14 days.
Each stage is explained in detail in our clothing production process.
| Fabric | Weight | Used for |
|---|---|---|
| Single jersey, 100% organic cotton | 160–280 GSM | T-shirts |
| French terry, 100% organic cotton | 350–450 GSM | Hoodies, sweatshirts, joggers |
| Brushed fleece, 80% organic cotton / 20% recycled polyester | 350 GSM | Hoodies, sweatshirts, joggers |
| Piqué, 100% organic cotton | 220 GSM | Polo shirts |
Fabrics and Certified Materials
Most of our clothing is made from cotton single jersey, French terry and brushed fleece, with organic cotton and recycled polyester blends available when a project needs them.
Stock colours give the shortest lead times: black, white and cream are standard in our French terry and heavier jerseys, and our 160 GSM jersey and brushed fleece come in a wider colour chart. For an exact match, fabric can be dyed to your Pantone reference from about 300 pieces per colour.
GOTS-certified organic cotton and OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 fabrics are available from certified mills, and we share the certificates on request. If the GOTS label should appear on the garment itself, tell us before sampling: onproduct GOTS labelling is only allowed when every processing stage is certified.
Certificates also let you make specific, provable claims such as “100% organic cotton”. This matters in the EU, where rules restricting generic environmental claims such as “eco-friendly” have applied since 27 September 2026.
Nearshore Clothing Manufacturing in Turkey for Europe and the UK
Working with a clothing manufacturer in Turkey keeps production close to your market: 1–3 hours ahead of Central Europe and the UK, 10–14 days from most European destinations by road, and inside the EU–Türkiye Customs Union for industrial goods.
- Same-day communication: Türkiye stays on UTC+3 all year, so samples, approvals and questions are handled within your working day.
- Fast replenishment: bulk orders travel by road in 10–14 days and samples by DHL Express in 3–4 business days, instead of several weeks at sea.
- European Union: qualifying goods in free circulation move without customs duty under the EU–Türkiye Customs Union, supported by the A.TR movement certificate we issue. Import VAT applies at destination.
- United Kingdom: the UK–Türkiye trade agreement allows 0% duty on goods that meet its rules of origin, claimed with an origin declaration on our invoice. UK import VAT is 20%.
- Switzerland: no customs duty on clothing since 1 January 2024; Swiss import VAT of 8.1% applies.
- Delivery terms: DAP by default, so we deliver to your address and you pay import VAT and any duties at destination.
