What to Include in an Activewear Tech Pack

Organize drawings, measurements, construction, materials, colours, branding and packaging for an activewear development brief.

MIQI BUYER GUIDEPROJECT PLANNINGUPDATED 2026

A useful tech pack reduces interpretation. It does not need to look elaborate, but it should connect every instruction to the correct product view, measurement point, material, colour and approval reference.

Use this guide as a discussion framework.

Exact materials, quantities, testing, timing and production routes must be confirmed against the actual style and order.

Product Identification

Give every style and version a clear identity so comments cannot be applied to the wrong file.

  • Style name and code
  • Front, back and detail drawings
  • Intended use and target fit
  • Version number and date

SPECIFICATION REVIEWConnect every instruction to the correct product view.Measurements, materials and construction notes are easier to follow when the style and version are clearly identified.

Measurements and Fit

Define how each point is measured and which size is used as the base. Include tolerances only after the construction and material route are understood.

  • Point-of-measure diagram
  • Base-size specification
  • Grading direction
  • Fit comments linked to sample versions

Construction and Materials

Show seams, finishes and components at the location where they apply.

  • Fabric composition and weight target
  • Lining, mesh, elastic, cups and trims
  • Stitch and seam requirements
  • Colour and trim references

DETAIL CONTROLVisual references should support precise instructions.Show where each seam, trim, logo and colour applies instead of leaving the factory to infer the detail.

Branding and Packaging

Artwork files and packing instructions should identify size, position, method and any market-specific information.

  • Logo artwork and application method
  • Main label, care label and size label
  • Hangtags and barcodes
  • Polybag, assortment and carton details

Prepare the Next Conversation

Collect the product references, quantities, target market, timing and customization requirements that are already known. Mark flexible items clearly, then ask the supplier to identify missing decisions before sampling or quotation.

NEXT STEP

Connect the Guidance to Your Product.

Every project still requires a review of the actual style, material, quantity and market requirements.
