True Fit Sportswear is a hand-run factory in Sialkot, Pakistan. After four years of working with 88+ brands, the questions that keep coming up are about preparation: how heavy should the fabric be, how do I describe the fit, what exactly should I send you. Those are questions a brand can answer on its own, with the right reference in hand, before it ever contacts a factory. So we turned our answers into documents you can print, fill in and keep, whether you end up ordering from us or from anyone else.
The files are plain and brand-neutral on purpose. Each carries a small credit line in the footer and nothing else. You can use them with any manufacturer.
How The Three Resources Work Together
They are designed as a sequence, even though each stands alone. Most custom garments move through the same three decisions, and the downloads map onto them.
- Choose the fabric. Start with the fabric GSM chart to find a sensible weight and construction for the garment you have in mind. The deeper reasoning is in our fabric weight guide.
- Settle the fit. Use the size and measurement guide to measure a reference garment or a body properly, decide your base size and plan the grading. Our sizing and grading guide covers fit types and first-order size breakdowns.
- Write it all down. Put the fabric, the measurements, the colors and the labels into the tech pack template. Our tech pack guide explains what each section is for.
What You Can Do With Them
- Print them and fill them in by hand, or type into the fields on screen. The tech pack template and the size chart worksheet are fillable in most PDF readers.
- Share them with your team, designers, printers or club committee. They are meant to be passed around.
- Link to them from a blog post, course page, newsletter or handbook. Each resource page has ready-made link markup that you can copy. Linking to the page, rather than re-hosting the file, means your readers always get the current version.
- Send your filled-in version to any factory you are comparing. A complete brief makes quotes easier to compare fairly.
A Note On The Numbers
The ranges in the GSM chart and the grading and tolerance tables in the size guide are labeled typical. They are broad, widely used industry ranges meant for orientation. They are not True Fit specifications, and no chart replaces a real sample. Whatever you decide on paper, confirm the fabric, the weight and the measurements with your factory on a sample before you approve bulk production.
Ready To Turn A Spec Into A Sample?
If you have filled in a template, or only half of one, send it to us. Samples have no minimum quantity and typically take 8–10 days; see how to order a sample. If you are building your own label, our private label page explains how that works. Bulk orders start at 20 pieces per style, take about 18 working days after approvals, and ship with the cost included in your quote. Every order has its own live tracking page.
