What This Style Is
A boyfriend washed tee built as an OEM programme rather than a stock item. You bring the sketch or a reference sample, we build the tech pack, cut the sheet, sew the first sample and then run the bulk on the same line. The fabric weight, wash finish, collar style, sleeve length, hem shape and print method are all specified by you at tech pack stage, so the piece that ships is your product and not a relabelled catalogue garment. Foriver has been cutting and sewing tops in Dongguan since 2011, and boyfriend tees are one of the core tee families the factory runs every season.
What You Get From Running It Here
- Fabric wash, weight and finish chosen with you and swatched for approval
- Sleeve length, collar style and hem shape specified per size and grading
Where This Style Usually Ends Up
An independent lifestyle brand launching a first summer tee drop with a relaxed, worn-in look
A club or association ordering team tees with custom print on the front and back
A startup testing two wash finishes at low volume before a full season buy
A brand replacing a discontinued supplier and needing an existing style matched
Who Orders This
Independent clothing brands, startups, companies, clubs and associations that need boyfriend washed tees made to their own design, in quantities most large factories will not accept.
What It Fixes In Your Sourcing
- Factories that refuse small first orders and force you into stock volumes
- No in-house technical team to turn a sketch into a production-ready tech pack
- Samples that arrive weeks late and miss the buying window
- Bulk that drifts away from the approved sample because nobody inspects the batch
- Sourcing fabric, wash, print and trims from separate vendors with no single owner
Construction You Specify
- Relaxed fit with dropped shoulder and slightly longer body length
- Washed finish applied to fabric before cutting and sewing for consistent softness
- Sleeve length and collar style detailed at cut sheet stage
- Hem shape, side seams and shoulder seams constructed to your grading

Honest Comparison With The Alternatives
| Buying stock tees from a wholesaler | Slower to first delivery and you carry the development work, but the garment is yours and nobody else sells it |
|---|---|
| A large-volume factory | Unit cost at high volume can be lower there, but they will not take a low first order or develop a tech pack for you |
| A local domestic maker | Freight and lead time are longer from China, and material and trim choice is far wider |
Certifications
Foriver publishes no third-party certification, audit or test standard, so none is claimed here. What the factory does state is that fabric is tested for leaks and tears before cutting and that every bulk batch is inspected in-house. If your market requires a specific certificate, ask before you sample.
