Sweatpants Manufacturer in Turkey
Brosan Textile is a professional sweatpants manufacturer based in Istanbul, Turkey. We provide complete OEM and ODM sweatpants production for brands worldwide, specializing in fleece sweatpants, tracksuit bottoms, and athletic wear with custom embroidery, printing, and private label services.
Premium Sweatpants Manufacturing
As a factory-direct sweatpants manufacturer, we control every step of the production process. Our facility in Istanbul produces sweatpants for sportswear brands, streetwear labels, loungewear companies, and fashion brands across Europe, UK, USA, and Middle East markets.
We manufacture various sweatpants styles including classic elastic cuff sweatpants, open-bottom tracksuit pants, tapered joggers, straight-leg sweatpants, cargo sweatpants with multiple pockets, and oversized baggy styles popular in streetwear. Each style can be customized to your brand's specifications.
Fabric Selection and GSM Options
The fabric choice significantly impacts the sweatpants' comfort, durability, and market positioning. We work with premium textile mills in Turkey to source fabrics that meet your quality and price requirements:
- Fleece Fabrics (280-350 GSM): Brushed interior provides warmth and softness. Ideal for winter sweatpants and loungewear. Available in regular pile and high-pile options for extra comfort.
- French Terry (240-300 GSM): Lighter weight with looped interior. Better drape and year-round wearability. Excellent moisture management for active use.
- Cotton-Polyester Blends: Ratios of 80/20, 70/30, or 65/35 offer enhanced durability, better color retention, reduced shrinkage, and easier care compared to 100% cotton.
- Technical Fabrics: Performance materials with moisture-wicking properties, anti-odor treatments, four-way stretch for athletic applications, and quick-dry finishes.
Customization and Design Services
Transform our sweatpants into unique branded products with comprehensive customization:
Embroidery Options: We provide high-quality embroidery placement on legs (side seam or front), back pockets, and hip areas. Small discreet logos to large statement graphics, 3D puff embroidery for raised effects, chain stitch detailing, and multi-color embroidery up to 12 colors are all available.
Printing Techniques: Screen printing for bold graphics and logos, discharge printing on dark-colored sweatpants, high-density printing for texture, heat transfer for detailed designs, and reflective or glow-in-the-dark prints for technical wear.
Construction Details: Custom drawstrings in branded colors with metal or plastic aglets, elastic waistbands with jacquard branding, ribbed ankle cuffs or open-bottom options, YKK zippers for pocket applications with custom pullers, and contrast piping or panels for design interest.
Pocket Configurations: Side seam pockets with various depths, zippered side pockets for security, back patch or welt pockets, cargo-style utility pockets, hidden phone pockets, and custom pocket placements based on your design.

Quality Control and Assurance
Quality is built into every stage of our sweatpants manufacturing process:
Incoming Inspection: All fabrics undergo inspection for weight consistency, color accuracy, width verification, defect identification, and hand feel assessment. We compare received fabrics against approved lab dips and strike-offs.
Production Quality Control: During cutting, we verify marker efficiency and pattern accuracy. Sewing lines are monitored with inline inspections checking stitch density, seam strength, and construction accuracy. Special attention to waistband attachment, pocket construction, and cuff quality ensures durability.
Final Inspection: Each garment undergoes comprehensive final inspection including measurement verification, embroidery quality assessment, print clarity and placement checks, pocket functionality testing, drawstring security, overall appearance, and size label accuracy. Only garments meeting our quality standards proceed to packaging.
Sampling and Pre-Production
Our structured sampling process ensures production-ready designs:
Initial Samples: Submit your tech pack with measurements, fabric requirements, and design details. We develop first samples in 7-10 days for your review. This allows you to assess fit, construction, and overall design execution.
Fit Samples: We recommend ordering fit samples in multiple sizes to establish proper grading. This ensures consistent fit across your entire size range and identifies any pattern adjustments needed before bulk production.
Pre-Production Samples: Final samples made with actual bulk fabrics and trims confirm all specifications before production begins. These samples serve as golden samples for quality reference during bulk manufacturing.
MOQ and Pricing Structure
Minimum Order Quantity: Our standard MOQ is 150 pieces per color per model. This quantity ensures efficient production while maintaining quality standards and competitive pricing. For example, sweatpants in black, gray, and navy would require 150 pieces per color (450 total).
Mixed size packs are standard. A typical 150-piece order might include XS (10), S (25), M (40), L (40), XL (25), XXL (10). We can adjust ratios based on your market data.
For new brands starting with smaller quantities, we can discuss combined orders with other product types (hoodies, t-shirts, joggers) to reach minimum order values while building a diversified collection.
Production Timeline and Process
Understanding the production timeline helps with inventory planning and launch schedules:
- Sample Development: 7-10 days from tech pack submission
- Sample Revisions: 5-7 days per revision cycle
- Pre-Production Sample: 5-7 days after final approval
- Bulk Production: 25-35 days from order confirmation and deposit
- Quality Inspection and Packing: 3-5 days
- Total Timeline: 6-8 weeks from initial sampling to ready-to-ship
Timelines vary based on fabric availability, complexity of customization, order quantity, and production season. We provide realistic timelines during quotation and maintain regular communication throughout production with photo updates at key milestones.
Export and Logistics Services
We handle complete export logistics for international shipments:
Our experienced export team prepares all required documentation including commercial invoices, packing lists, certificates of origin, and country-specific customs documents. We work with established freight forwarders to secure competitive rates for both air and sea shipment.
Shipping Options: Sea freight for larger orders (most cost-effective, 2-4 weeks to Europe, 3-5 weeks to USA), air freight for urgent shipments or smaller quantities, and express courier for samples.
Turkey's strategic location between Europe and Asia provides logistical advantages. Our proximity to European markets means shorter shipping times and lower costs compared to Asian manufacturing. The Turkey-EU customs union further facilitates trade with European destinations.
