A practical tech-pack outline for jerseys, kits and private-label apparel.

How to Prepare a Sportswear Tech Pack — EQUEST GEAR custom sportswear manufacturing

A tech pack is a manufacturing document

It is not a moodboard. At minimum it should let a pattern maker and a printer work without guessing. If you cannot produce one, say you need ODM support instead of attaching a logo on a white page and calling it a tech pack.

Core pages

Use consistent units (cm or inches) throughout.

  • Cover: style name, season, buyer, date
  • Flat sketches (front, back, side if needed)
  • Measurement chart and tolerances
  • BOM: fabric, thread, elastics, zippers, labels
  • Artwork placements and print files
  • Stitching notes
  • Packing notes

Artwork files

Vector logos (AI, EPS, SVG, PDF). PNG/JPG for reference only unless they are true high-resolution raster graphics for sublimation. Call out EQUEST GEAR CMYK Color Book codes where matching is required.
