What This Style Is
A tie back 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, sleeve length, neck shape, tie placement, hem finish and seam construction 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 tie back tees are one of the core styles in the cut-and-sew range the factory runs every season.

What You Get From Running It Here
- Every panel, seam and tie placement is set by your tech pack, not by a fixed factory block
- Fabric and construction chosen with you and swatched for approval
- Ties, stitching and hem finish applied to your specified layout and size run
Where This Style Usually Ends Up
An independent lifestyle brand launching a first summer tee drop with a unique tie-back design
A women's club ordering matching tops with custom tie placement and embroidered name tags
A startup testing two fabric weights and two tie lengths at low volume before a full season buy
A brand replacing a discontinued supplier and needing a tie back tee matched to an existing sample
Who Orders This
Independent clothing brands, startups, companies, clubs and associations that need tie back 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, ties and trims from separate vendors with no single owner
Construction You Specify
- Tie back construction with placement and length specified per size
- Neckline shape, sleeve length and hem finish detailed at cut sheet stage
- Flatlock or overlock stitching used on seams as per your spec
- Tie material and width chosen from your swatch or our selection
- Woven or printed care label and hangtag applied to your artwork
- Print, embroidery or applique branding placed to your spec on the front or back

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.

Foriver is set up for low MOQ and bundles small orders across its production partners. Send your style and size run and we will confirm the minimum for that specific construction.

Can I supply my own fabric and trims?
Yes. Nominated fabric, tie material, labels and trims can be used, or we can source and swatch them for your approval.
Can you match a tee I already sell?
