What to include in a creator merch kit
Start with a main product your audience wants to wear or collect. A shirt, hoodie or hat can anchor the drop, while a pin, patch or sticker adds another price point or completes a bundle. These are possible combinations, with quantities and availability confirmed in your quote.
- First drop: a printed shirt and sticker sheet, with optional hang tags.
- Subscriber gift: a custom pin or patch on a backer card with a printed insert.
- Limited collection: a custom hat, knitted socks and a coordinated sticker design.
- Collaboration: a shared apparel design with a collectible pin or patch.
Apparel is decorated on selected blanks. Custom cut-and-sew hats are made to your approved fabric, colorway and construction, with digital and physical sample approvals before bulk production. Decorated blank hats are also available. Socks are knitted with the artwork incorporated into the design.
Choose products that suit the artwork
A channel logo may work across several products, but a detailed illustration needs to be reviewed at its finished size. Woven patches generally hold finer detail than embroidered patches. Soft enamel pins have raised metal lines and recessed color, while hard enamel pins have a polished, smooth face.
Send the artwork and any reference product. Vector AI or PDF files are preferred, but we can review other formats and advise whether artwork assistance is needed. Every order receives a free digital mockup before production.
Guaranteed to the artwork you approve. If the finished product differs from the approved mockup, we’ll remake it at no charge.
Packaging for a finished drop
Add woven labels, hang tags, backer cards or printed inserts where they suit the product. Custom packaging and kitting can be quoted for bundles, and multi-address fulfillment is available if the order needs to reach individual recipients.
Tell us what goes in each set, whether products will also be sold individually and where the finished goods will go. Packaging, assembly and shipping are confirmed in the quote rather than assumed to be included.
Quantities for a first release
Minimums start at 25 pieces on select products. They apply by product and design, so the minimum for one item may differ from the others in the kit. The best per-unit value is typically at 100 pieces and above.
If you are testing demand, send the quantities you are considering. We can review a smaller product mix and compare options before you announce the release. A kit can contain different quantities of different items when the individual minimums are met.
Planning a launch date
Most products take approximately 2 to 3 weeks to produce. Custom cut-and-sew hats require approximately 2 to 3 weeks of sampling, followed by 3 to 4 weeks of production after physical sample approval, plus approximately 7 to 8 days for shipping, including international shipping.
Shipping, sampling and any kitting need to fit into the overall schedule. Send the date the merchandise must arrive and we will confirm the complete timeline with the quote.
Creator merch kit questions
Can I start with a small drop?
Yes. Minimums start at 25 pieces on select products, with the exact requirements confirmed for each item and design.
I have artwork from an AI tool. Can you use it?
Send the file for review. We will check whether it is suitable for the product, finished size and production method and let you know if artwork assistance is needed.
Can you ship kits to my audience?
Multi-address fulfillment is available. Send the kit contents and delivery scope so packaging and shipping can be quoted for the project.
Do I need a separate packaging vendor?
Packaging, finishing and kitting can be included in the same project. Available options and pricing are confirmed with your quote.
Can you meet my launch date?
Send the in-hand date and product ideas before announcing availability. We will confirm the schedule based on the products, approvals, sampling and delivery requirements.
