When you order from us, you're getting a product developed and made in Portugal, tested for consistency, and built to perform across reorders.

FAQ

Common Questions

We are a manufacturer. All our garments are developed and produced in-house in Portugal. We do not source or resell products from third-party factories. We control every step, from fabric development to final quality control.
T-shirts (300 GSM jersey), hoodies, zip-hoodies, crewnecks, sweatpants, long sleeves, polo shirts, shorts, knit sweaters and tote bags. All developed in-house using Portuguese-made fabrics.
Yes. We offer screen printing (normal and puff), embroidery (flat and 3D), DTG, DTF and garment dyeing, all in-house. Minimum 50 pieces per colour and style for bulk decoration orders.
No minimum order on all in-stock blank styles. For bulk production with decoration or custom dyeing, the minimum is typically 50 pieces per colour and style.
Very consistent. Because we produce in-house, the same team uses the same machines, fabrics and processes every time. Pre-shrunk garments with 0–3% shrinkage tolerance ensure stable fits and measurements across batches.
Our core offer is white label manufacturing: premium blanks you customise with your brand identity. For custom-developed garments (original patterns, proprietary fabrics), contact us to discuss your project.
Use our Bulk Price Simulation for an instant estimate, or book a free consulting call for a full production quote including decoration and labelling.
We ship worldwide via UPS. Core stock colours ship next day. Custom production lead times vary by order and our team will confirm at the time of order.
Most Portuguese manufacturers require large MOQs, have long lead times and don't offer the level of brand support we do. We combine manufacturing quality with direct access to our team, free consulting, no MOQ on blanks, and a range developed specifically for premium streetwear and contemporary fashion brands.
Yes. We offer free consulting calls for brands at any stage, whether you're launching a first collection or evaluating a new production partner. Book at renebassett.com/pages/free-consulting-meeting.
