EU compression apparel buyers usually ask three questions: how many pieces, how long, and what it costs.
SANSANSUSPORTS, As a compression wear manufacturer for brands in Germany, France, Benelux, and the Nordics, answers below.
What Is the Compression Wear MOQ?
Compression wear MOQ depends on customization level. For stock fabric and colorways, SANSANSUNSPORTS minimum order is just 50 pieces per style. For a custom color or private label, the compression shirt OEM minimum order rises to about 100 pieces per style. For full custom construction — new panels or compression zones — SANSANSUNSPORTS MOQ is usually around 300 pieces per style, since new patterns need extra setup time. See our guide to MOQ and production lead time for more on apparel sourcing requirements.
How Long Is Compression Apparel Lead Time?
Compression apparel lead time starts with sampling, which takes 14 to 21 days. Bulk production then takes 30 to 45 days from sample approval. Sea freight to EU ports adds another 18 to 25 days. For a first order or tight launch date, SANSANSUNSPORTS also offers air freight. Plan 8 to 12 weeks total for a new partnership.
What Is the Wholesale Compression Price?
Wholesale compression price depends mainly on fabric. Entry-level polyester-spandex shirts run $6.50–$9.00 FOB. Mid-range nylon-spandex with private labeling runs $9.00–$14.00 FOB. Premium recycled nylon with GRS or OEKO-TEX certification runs $13.00–$18.00 FOB. Landed cost to the EU is usually 25–35% higher, depending on country, freight, and duty. SANSANSUNSPORTS shares this breakdown with every quote.
