Understanding the private label sock manufacturing process from design to production
Questions buyers ask first
What is the minimum order quantity for custom socks?
Sihman's minimum order is 2,000 pairs per design, color, and size. Color and size each count separately: one design in two sizes means 2,000 pairs of each size, 4,000 pairs in total. Specialty fibers such as merino or alpaca carry a higher minimum. At these volumes, per-pair pricing comes in well below small-batch custom shops, with the best value starting at 10,000 or more pairs.

How does sampling work, and what does a sample cost?
A custom sample costs $300 per design and includes three pairs with shipping; grip, compression, and other specialty constructions start at $500. Allow 2 to 3 weeks from the agreed tech pack, delivery included. Sampling starts once your design or reference is confirmed and the sample invoice is paid, and you approve the sample before any bulk production begins.

How long does production take?
Typical production time is 4-6 weeks for orders up to 50,000 pairs. Lead times may vary depending on your order details and current capacity. Pro tip: contact us for an accurate timeline based on your needs.

Do you quote FOB Istanbul or delivered duty-paid prices?
Sihman quotes delivered duty-paid (DDP) by default: one landed price to your door with shipping and customs already inside it, and Sihman acts as importer of record for US orders. FOB Istanbul is available on request if you would rather manage freight and customs yourself. Tell us your destination country and your preference when you request a quote, and we will quote exact terms.
