MOQ Guide for Tights, Pantyhose & Hosiery

Minimum Order Quantities for Wholesale, Private Label & OEM

At Dongyang Jiban Apparel Co., Ltd., we support different order sizes for stock products, private label collections, custom colors, custom patterns, and full OEM/ODM hosiery production.

Your MOQ depends on the level of customization, materials, colors, packaging, and production requirements.

Whether you are testing a new product, building a private label hosiery brand, or placing a large OEM order, we can recommend the most suitable production option for your business.

Our MOQ by Order Type

MOQ ranges are typical guidelines and may vary depending on the product, material, construction, colors, sizes, packaging, and customization requirements.

For an exact MOQ, please send us your product requirements for a factory quotation.

1. Stock Products

MOQ: 20–100+ pairs

Our stock products are suitable for:

• Online retailers

• Boutique stores

• Amazon and e-commerce sellers

• Product testing

• New brand launches

• Sample purchasing

• Wholesale buyers

Stock products can usually be ordered in existing colors, sizes, materials, and designs.

This is the lowest-risk option if you want to test market demand before developing a fully customized product.

Stock / Sample Pricing

Stock and sample products may be purchased at the prices shown on our product pages.

Wholesale, private label and OEM pricing are available separately.

For larger quantities, contact us for a factory quotation.

2. Custom Color Hosiery

MOQ: 300–500 pairs per color

Custom color options may include:

• Custom black shades

• Skin-tone / nude shades

• Seasonal colors

• Brand-specific colors

• Fashion colors

• Pantone-based color references

The final MOQ and development requirements depend on the yarn, fabric construction, dyeing process, and color requirements.

For accurate color matching, buyers can provide a Pantone reference, physical color sample, or other approved color standard.

3. Private Label Tights

Private label production is designed for brands that want to sell hosiery under their own brand name.

Depending on the product, we can support:

• Custom brand labels

• Hang tags

• Barcode / UPC labeling

• Size and care labels

4. Custom Pattern & Custom Knit

MOQ: 1,000–3,000 pairs

Custom patterns and knit structures require additional production development compared with standard products.

This option may include:

• Custom knitted patterns

• Jacquard designs

• Custom textures

A custom pattern may require sample development and production approval before bulk manufacturing.

Standard custom production may include combinations of:

This option is suitable for brands that already know their target product specifications but need a manufacturing partner to produce them.

Full OEM/ODM MOQ depends on the complexity of the project and the final production specifications.

Why Does MOQ Vary?

MOQ is not determined by quantity alone.

For hosiery production, the minimum order can be affected by:

Product Construction

Basic stock tights are easier to produce in smaller quantities, while custom knit structures and special constructions require additional setup and development.

Color

Custom colors may require dedicated dyeing and color development.

Materials

Special yarns, yarn blends, fleece materials, conductive yarns, or other customized materials may have their own purchasing requirements.

Size Range

A product with multiple sizes requires production planning across the complete size range.

Packaging

Custom packaging, labels, printed bags, boxes, inserts, and barcodes can affect the minimum production quantity.

Customization Level

The more elements that are customized, the more development and production preparation may be required.

Can I Start With a Small Quantity?

Yes.

If you are launching a new brand or testing a new product, you do not necessarily need to start with a large OEM order.

You can consider the following approach:

Step 1 — Stock Product

Start with existing products and smaller quantities.

↓

Step 2 — Sample & Product Testing

Evaluate fit, material, sheerness, stretch, color and customer response.

↓

Step 3 — Private Label

Add your brand label and customized packaging.

↓

Step 4 — Custom Product

Develop your own colors, patterns, materials or construction.

↓

Step 5 — Full OEM / ODM

Scale the successful product into larger production runs.

This approach allows brands to validate products before committing to larger customized production.

Sample Orders

Samples are available before bulk production.

For custom projects, the sample process may include:

1. Product specification review

2. Material and color confirmation

3. Sample development

4. Sample inspection

5. Buyer approval

6. Final production specification confirmation

Standard custom samples typically take approximately 7–10 days, depending on the product and customization requirements.

Sample fees vary according to the product and development requirements.

For complex OEM/ODM projects, the sample timeline may be longer.

Production Lead Time

Typical production timing depends on the order type.

Lead times are estimates rather than guaranteed delivery dates.

The final production schedule will be confirmed after the product specifications, samples, packaging, and order quantity are approved.

MOQ Does Not Mean One Fixed Number

Every hosiery project is different.

For example, a buyer may request:

1,000 pairs

with:

• 2 colors

• 4 sizes

• private label

• custom packaging

Another buyer may request:

1,000 pairs

with:

• 1 color

• 3 sizes

• stock packaging

• custom label only

Although the total quantity is similar, the production requirements can be different.

That's why we confirm MOQ after reviewing the complete product specifications.
