Can You Start with a Small Acid Wash Distressed T-Shirt Order?

Yes. You can test an acid wash distressed t-shirt design with a custom order starting at 50 pieces per style and color. The order may include a range of sizes. For blank garments without custom processing, the minimum is 20 pieces per style and color.

How Custom Development Works

Each acid wash distressed t-shirt order is treated as a custom-style project. Share your specifications through a Tech Pack, reference garment, or initial concept. The factory can then support sample development, bulk manufacturing, inspection, and shipping. Samples typically take 3–15 days, while bulk production usually requires 20–35 days. The final schedule depends on design complexity, fabric availability, and the selected wash and distressing treatments.

Be sure to define the wash tone and distressing details during sampling, as these choices influence both production steps and lead time. Once the pre-production sample is approved, quality checks take place during manufacturing and again before shipment. Final inspection follows AQL 2.5 based on ISO 2859-1, and a third-party inspection can be arranged upon request.
