The workout tank top OEM process is not “send a logo and wait.”
It’s a controlled pipeline that moves through:
From my experience, tank tops fail when brands treat them like simple tees.
They’re actually fit products—a few millimeters at the armhole or length can decide returns.
Great OEM partners don’t just sew. They run the process.
Many brands think OEM equals:
Design → Sample → Produce → Ship
In real factories, the process looks like this:
If a supplier can’t show you these steps, you don’t have an OEM process—you have risk.
I’ve seen two outcomes over and over:
Loose OEM
Controlled OEM
Country doesn’t decide this.
Process discipline does.
Factories verify:
A soft fabric that shrinks will ruin fit.
A workout tank needs:
“Stock patterns” create stock problems.
Expect:
Mirror approval is not performance approval.
Strong OEMs lock:
This prevents drift in bulk.
Good floors:
That’s how bulk stays honest.
| Breakdown | Result |
|---|---|
| No fabric test | Shrink after wash |
