Product & Customization Overview
The Samoa Teuila Sarong (Item No. 00477) is a white-based sarong featuring Samoan Siapo motifs, capturing a Polynesian island aesthetic. As a custom sarong, it suits beach resort retail, resort gifting, and ethnic-style apparel wholesale. Buyers can customize colors, sizing, packaging, and labeling based on the existing design, or develop exclusive prints from their own artwork.
- Core style: Samoan/Polynesian island look with white Siapo motifs, ideal for tropical resort and ethnic retail.
- Fabric: viscose/rayon, soft with good drape, suitable for beach cover-ups and everyday wrapping.
- Customization scope: print colors, sizing, care labels/hang tags, packaging, barcodes, and private labeling.
- MOQ & sampling: small trial orders and custom artwork are supported; please confirm MOQ and sampling fees with the factory.
Design & Pattern Details
The white Siapo motif is the signature of this sarong. Siapo motifs typically combine geometric lines, repeating totems, and natural elements. The white base keeps the pattern crisp and works well for resort, island-themed retail, and gifting channels. Key details to review:
- Pattern clarity: check print edges and repeat alignment, especially fine lines on a large white ground.
- Color consistency: white grounds are sensitive to shade variation; confirm lot-to-lot consistency.
- Motif placement: check the visual center when wrapped so the main motif is not hidden by the knot.
- Custom printing: custom printed pareo orders should start with artwork, color cards, and print technique confirmation.
Material, GSM & Quality
Viscose/rayon is a common fabric for beach sarongs: lightweight, drapey, and skin-friendly. GSM and hand feel vary by style and factory, so always confirm with a physical sample. Quality points to verify during sampling:
- GSM & opacity: check transparency in natural light and adjust GSM if needed for your market.
- Colorfastness: white-ground prints need attention to washing, rubbing, and light fastness; request test reports or confirm standards.
- Shrinkage: rayon may shrink after washing; confirm pre-shrinking and finished-size tolerances.
- Hand feel & drape: confirm softness and drape for wrapping, knotting, and draping.
Size Grading & Fit
Sarongs are usually supplied in rectangular sizes such as approx. 110×180 cm or 115×190 cm, depending on style and factory standards. Confirm specifications by channel:
- Standard wrap size: suits most adult women for chest, waist, or shoulder wrapping.
- Extended size: suits plus size customers and resort gifting; confirm length and width allow knotting.
- Tolerances: confirm cutting and hem tolerances to avoid batch-to-batch variation.
- Grading advice: for a series, adjust length and width by channel without distorting the Siapo motif composition.
MOQ, Sampling & Lead Time
MOQ for custom sarongs depends on print technique, fabric color, and packaging. Small trial orders help new buyers test the market, while bulk orders follow MOQ tiers. Points to confirm:
- MOQ: varies by design and technique; trial and bulk MOQs differ—confirm with the factory.
- Sampling: custom artwork requires artwork, color card, and fabric confirmation; sampling time depends on complexity.
- Sample fee: usually charged and may be credited against bulk orders; confirm the factory policy.
- Lead time: depends on quantity, print technique, and fabric stock; specify lead time and inspection milestones in the contract.
FOB Pricing & Payment
Pricing is by MOQ tier and varies with fabric GSM, print technique, sizing, packaging, and labeling. Request tiered quotations and confirm terms:
- Quotation structure: confirm whether FOB price includes care labels, hang tags, packaging, and inspection fees.
- Payment: deposit plus balance is common; confirm ratios and methods with the factory.
- Validity: confirm quote validity and clauses for fabric price fluctuation.
- Volume discounts: confirm unit prices by MOQ tier rather than a single fixed quote.
OEM/ODM Custom Process
From artwork to bulk, custom sarongs typically follow these steps. Buyers can choose OEM (artwork supplied) or ODM (factory design options):
- Requirement confirmation: define print, colors, size, fabric, packaging, and target market.
- Artwork & color card: confirm print artwork, repeat, and colors; white-ground styles need extra attention to base consistency.
- Sampling approval: check hand feel, opacity, colorfastness, and size.
- Bulk & inspection: produce against the approved sample and arrange mid and final inspections.
- Packing & shipping: confirm labels, barcodes, packaging, and shipping documents.
