Six Core Customization Options
Logo & Branding Methods
Choose from five professional logo application methods tailored to fabric type and design complexity:
- Sublimation — Full-color, edge-to-edge print on polyester; zero hand-feel, crack-proof after 50+ wash cycles
- Silicone Print — Premium textured 3D effect, wash-durable, ideal for chest branding
- Screen Print (Plastisol/Water-Based) — Most cost-effective for 1–4 color logos on cotton-poly blends
- Embroidery — Durable, upscale finish perfect for heavier knits (200+ GSM)
- Heat Transfer — Best for small runs requiring complex color gradients or photo-realistic designs
Fabric Selection
Montforge sources and develops fabrics matched to your end-use performance requirements:
- Polyester/Spandex Blends — 88/12 (compression) or 92/8 (gym) with 4-way stretch recovery
- Cotton-Poly Blends — 50/50 or 60/40 for soft athleisure handfeel
- 100% Recycled Polyester — GRS-certified eco-friendly option for sustainability-focused brands
- Bamboo Modal Blend — Naturally anti-odor, ultra-smooth touch for premium yoga/lifestyle lines
- Custom GSM Range — 130–240 GSM depending on silhouette and function
Design & Pattern Customization
Beyond basic color changes, Montforge supports advanced pattern-level modifications:
- Color Blocking — Multi-panel contrast designs with Pantone-matched colors
- Raglan / Drop-Shoulder Silhouette — Sport-specific ergonomic cuts
- Contrast Piping & Tape Details — Retro sportswear aesthetic (+$0.30–$0.80/pc)
