Build a glove tech pack for your private label collection.

Describe the glove category, destination market, intended brand position and assortment. Identify the elements that must be consistent across the range, such as a color reference, label system or packaging format. A knit glove and a leather glove may need different ways to express the same brand detail. Start with the collection brief, then evaluate material and branding choices on the actual constructions proposed for development.

OEM supports manufacturing from your design, specification or reference sample. ODM supports development from a collection brief. For either route, document what your team supplies, what needs development and who approves each decision. Request clarity on sample rounds, artwork preparation and commercial terms at the quotation stage. The words OEM and ODM help describe the starting point, but the written project scope determines what work is included.

List the desired yarn, fabric, leather, lining and trim requirements, distinguishing mandatory specifications from options to discuss. Compare swatches and complete samples for the agreed hand feel and appearance. A color reference on one substrate should not be treated as automatic approval on another. Record the chosen composition, finish and reference identifiers together, and resolve any material substitution before it becomes part of the final specification.

Supply vector artwork where available, the intended mark dimensions, position, orientation and color references. Discuss embroidery, woven labels, embossed details or other proposed applications against the selected material. Review legibility, placement and the reverse-side finish on an applied sample. If the sample requires artwork changes, keep the revised file identifiable and remove older versions from the production handoff. Do not approve a digital mockup as the only reference for the finished application.

Plan material descriptions, size labels, care wording and any destination-specific information with the team responsible for your market requirements. Confirm the packing format and how many pairs each presentation unit contains. Show how packaging versions map to styles and markets so the same glove is not packed with the wrong artwork. Approve the final text and layout before the packing instructions are released.

Give each style a stable internal reference and list each color and size as a separate row. Record the quantities in pairs, plus the relevant label and packaging versions. The MOQ is 300 pairs per style per color; confirm the size split in that grouping. This matrix is useful for quotation and order planning, but it also provides a check against sample lists, packing instructions and later changes to the assortment.

Nominate one approval contact and collect revisions in a dated document. State whether each comment is a required change, a question or an optional proposal. When a material, pattern or branding detail changes, assess whether the existing fit or visual approval is still applicable. The final sample, written specification, artwork and assortment should describe the same product before production is scheduled. Sampling and bulk production start dates are confirmed against those approvals.

Keep the approved material references, size chart, pattern notes, artwork, labels, packaging and assortment together. Add a short change record for future orders so buyers can identify which version is current. For a repeat program, reconfirm availability and commercial terms and call out any new market or packaging requirement. The sourcing brief and assortment template can be used as the index to this file rather than leaving important decisions scattered across email attachments.
