Planning your hoodies & sweatshirts order for West Bay
A hoodies & sweatshirts order for West Bay should be planned backwards from the selling season. Hot summers favour light fabrics from April to October. Buying peaks before Ramadan, Eid, National Day (18 December) and the start of the school year. For hoodies & sweatshirts specifically, hoodies are ordered April–July for autumn and winter in the northern hemisphere, and January–March for the southern; promotional lines peak before sports and event seasons. Our lead time is 40–55 days, plus sea transit of about 5–10 days, so we advise confirming orders early enough to land the goods before the peak rather than during it.
Typical buyers of hoodies & sweatshirts in West Bay include fashion and streetwear brands, universities and schools, promotional-merchandise firms and retailers in cooler climates. In West Bay, they usually order 800–1,500 pieces per style, up to three colours and reorder the styles that sell through, so we keep fabric, size ratios and labels on file for repeat shipments.
Fabric, fit and colour choices for West Bay
West Bay is warm for most of the year, so we steer buyers of hoodies & sweatshirts towards the lighter end of the range: Cotton-polyester brushed fleece 280–380 GSM or 100% cotton French terry 260–320 GSM. Heavier blends feel uncomfortable in the heat and slow sell-through in the shops.
Sizes: S–3XL; oversized fits; kids 4–14 years. Colours: Black, grey melange, navy, bottle green, burgundy and seasonal colours with garment dyeing.
Hoodies & Sweatshirts made in bulk to your colour, size and design
You are not limited to stock designs. We make hoodies & sweatshirts in bulk in the colour you choose, in the sizes and size ratio your customers wear, and in the design you supply for the West Bay market. A reference garment, a tech pack, a sketch or even a photograph is enough to start.
How it works: send a Pantone code or fabric swatch for colour and we return a lab-dip; send your size chart and the ratio you want in each carton; send artwork, print, embroidery or label files for the design. We make a sample for approval and then produce the bulk to that approved sample, so the order you receive matches the one you signed off.

- Size: S–3XL; oversized fits; kids 4–14 years.
