Questions Buyers Often Ask
Q: Football training, tennis matches, gym workouts, basketball games, running events, yoga sessions, outdoor sports
A:
Q: What is your standard AQL defect tolerance level for bulk shipment acceptance — AQL 1.5, 2.5, or 4.0?** A: We operate at AQL 2.5 for critical defects and AQL 4.0 for minor defects per ANSI/ASQ Z1.4 standards.

Q: What is the realistic production lead time from artwork approval to ready-to-ship, not the marketing headline figure?
A: Realistic production requires 31 business days for quantities up to 3,000 pieces. Orders exceeding 3,000 pieces have negotiated timelines based on quantity and production capacity.

Q: How do you verify material composition and quality on completed sweatband orders?

We provide material test reports and compliance documentation with all shipments. Manufacturing traceability is maintained through production records. All production documentation includes batch-specific material certificates. Breathable and quick sweat absorption features verified through standard testing.
Q: How does the polyester/cotton blend compare to pure cotton for sweatband applications?
A: Polyester/cotton blend provides superior durability, shape retention, and quick sweat absorption compared to pure cotton sweatbands. The blend wicks moisture away from the skin more effectively. Cotton may retain sweat and become heavy during intense activity. The blend is recommended for sports applications where moisture management and durability are priorities. 8cm width with thin thickness provides comfortable wear.

A: Volume breaks start at 500 pieces (5% reduction), 1,000 pieces (8% reduction), and 2,500 pieces (10% reduction). Logo/graphic design from 200 pieces at $1/piece.
