Case Study: Canadian Streetwear Brand — 4 Re-Orders
"Our customers literally live in these hoodies. The 380 GSM weight feels premium, and the puff print logos have never cracked after dozens of washes."
A Toronto-based streetwear label came to Chanjoye with a vision: heavyweight hoodies that felt like a $200 garment at an $85 retail price. We sourced 380 GSM brushed-back French terry, applied 3D puff print logos on the chest and back, and added custom woven neck labels with branded hangtags. The first 200-piece order sold out in two weeks. They've re-ordered four times, scaling to 500 units per drop. Their customers consistently rate the hoodie 4.8+ stars — and the 65% margin allows healthy reinvestment into their next collection.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to common questions from brand owners starting their hoodie production journey
What is the best fabric for streetwear hoodies?
For premium streetwear, we recommend 300–380 GSM 100% cotton French terry with a brushed back interior. This weight gives the hoodie structure and a premium hand-feel that customers associate with quality. For a softer, lived-in feel, consider a cotton-polyester blend (80/20 or 70/30) which also reduces shrinkage. We stock both options and can develop custom blends for your brand.
Can you match the fit of a competitor's hoodie?
Yes. Send us a reference sample and we'll reverse-engineer the pattern, measurements, and construction details. Our pattern-making team can replicate the fit within 2–3 sample rounds. We also maintain a reference library of popular streetwear hoodie fits from brands like Essentials, Supreme, and Yeezy — tell us which silhouette you're targeting and we'll start from a proven base pattern.
What is the minimum order for embroidered hoodies?
Our standard MOQ is 30 pieces per design. For embroidered hoodies, we recommend 40+ pieces for the most cost-effective pricing — embroidery requires digitization setup, and the per-piece cost decreases as quantity increases. Small left-chest embroidery adds approximately $1.50–$3.00 per piece. Large back embroidery adds $3.00–$6.00 per piece depending on stitch count.
How do you prevent shrinkage and color fading?
All our fabrics undergo pre-shrinking treatment before cutting. For 100% cotton hoodies, expect 3–5% residual shrinkage after the first wash — we account for this in pattern grading. For colorfastness, we use reactive dyes with a minimum grade 4 rating (AATCC standards). We provide care labels with washing instructions, and we recommend cold wash + air dry to maximize garment life. Pre-production wash tests are included in every sampling round.
What is the typical lead time for a hoodie order?
From design confirmation to delivery: Sampling takes 10–12 days (2–3 revision rounds if needed). Once the sample is approved, bulk production takes 15–25 days depending on quantity and decoration complexity. Shipping by air takes 5–7 days; by sea takes 15–25 days. Total timeline: approximately 5–7 weeks from first contact to receiving your order. Rush production is available for an additional 20–30% surcharge.
