Less searching.
More product-focused conversations.

01

Start with your actual requirements

Bring jersey, weight and intended feel into the conversation from the beginning. Your project needs a starting point that reflects the product, rather than a general list of factory names.

02

Make your priorities clear

Explain fit, neckline and construction and identify which choices are still open. The AI Matchmaker gives you a place to describe the work you need and the questions behind it.

03

Move towards a useful next step

Discuss printing, embroidery and labels as part of the same brief. Take the conversation forward with a clearer picture of what needs to be confirmed with a manufacturer.

Your idea. A conversation.

T-shirt manufacturers in Portugal FAQs

How can Sustainable Makers help with your T-shirt range?
From a first branded basic to a new fit for an established collection, Sustainable Makers helps you start sourcing around the fabric, silhouette and finish that make your T-shirt yours. Start with the AI Matchmaker and share jersey, weight and intended feel, fit, neckline and construction, printing, embroidery and labels. The conversation is a starting point for exploring a manufacturing partner; final scope, availability and production terms are agreed with the supplier.
What happens after I start the AI conversation?
Describe the product and the information you already have. Use the conversation to explain your requirements and identify the details that need attention. Before committing to an order, confirm the proposed scope, samples, quotation and timing with the manufacturing partner.
What belongs in a T-shirt tech pack?
Include front and back drawings, fabric and trim details, a measurement chart, size range, colour references, artwork placement, labels, packaging and revision notes.
What measurements should I include in a T-shirt brief?
Identify chest width, body length, shoulder width, sleeve length and opening measurements relevant to the design. Show where each measurement is taken and provide the intended size range. Agree tolerances with the manufacturer rather than leaving the acceptable variation undefined.
How do I specify a T-shirt neckline?
Describe the neck shape, rib width, rib material and attachment method or provide an approved reference. Include the relevant opening measurements. Review the neckline on the actual garment, including its appearance after the agreed wash check.
When should I approve print or embroidery placement?
Review placement on a sample with the intended fit and measurements. Mark the position relative to identifiable seams or measurement points. If the pattern or artwork dimensions change afterwards, confirm whether placement needs a new approval before production.
