Build mens shirts around collar construction, placket detail, fabric handfeel and a graded fit—not a blank catalog style. For China OEM and private-label programs, define polo jersey, woven shirting or henley rib before sampling labels or bulk colors. MOQ is 100 pcs per color per design; samples typically take about 7 days once the brief and materials are confirmed.

Neck labels, care labels, hang tags, zipper pulls and bags.Pack by SKUThese are the details a factory needs before discussing MOQ, sampling, lead time and production scope.
Start with Shirt type (polo, woven, henley) and fit reference, Fabric composition, GSM or yarn count, and finish, Collar, placket, cuff and button or snap specs, Graded measurement chart and size range. Add the quantity by color and size, destination country and required date.
The sample should resolve Pique or jersey polo constructions, Woven oxford, twill or poplin shirts, Henley plackets with rib or jersey bodies and record the approved measurements, materials, trims and finish before bulk.
MOQ is 100 pcs. Samples take 7 days. Bulk production lead time depends on order quantity.
Collar shape and recovery after wash, Placket alignment and button security, Chest, sleeve and body length vs size chart, Shade continuity across bulk colors should be compared with the approved sample and packing requirements before release.
A custom shirt manufacturer brief should name the product family first: pique or jersey polo, woven casual or oxford shirt, or henley. These share a collar or placket language but not the same fabric, machine setup or measurement priorities. Polo programs usually hinge on collar stand stability, placket clean-up and jersey GSM. Woven shirts need yarn count or fabric weight, interlining decisions and button security. Henleys need placket length, rib or jersey body matching and recovery at the opening. Write the intended retail use—golf, streetwear, workwear-casual or dress-casual—so the OEM team can propose constructions that fit the use, not only the photo reference.
MOQ is 100 pcs per color per design. Confirm how that minimum applies when you split sizes or when a second color is added later. Samples typically take about 7 days once the brief and materials are confirmed; unresolved fabric holds do not count as production delays on the factory side.

Collar and placket details decide whether a shirt looks premium after wash. Specify collar height, tip shape, stay or interlining needs, and how the placket is topstitched. For polos, review collar recovery after a wear-and-wash cycle before approving bulk. For woven shirts, confirm button or snap type, spacing and spare-button policy. Record chest width, across-shoulder, sleeve length and body length with tolerances so grading does not silently change the silhouette.
Bring a reference garment only as a starting point. Measure it, photograph construction details and then write the numbers you will accept. That keeps China OEM proposals comparable when two mills offer similar fabrics with different shrinkage.
Approve one sample as the production standard: fabric, shade, measurements, labels and packing. Bulk should be checked against that standard, not against memory of a first fitting. For reorders, require the supplier to flag yarn lot, GSM or trim substitutions before cutting. Keep the WhatsApp line and email thread tied to the same style code so comments stay searchable.
Include references, quantity, fabric target, color count, logo files, packaging notes and the delivery window.
