Full development and production for knitwear and leisurewear across jerseys, fleece, ribs and blended knits, from everyday basics to more detailed designs.
Coldwater Production manufactures knitwear and leisurewear in a wide range of fabrics, weights and fits. We produce T-shirts, crewnecks, hoodies, sweatpants, shorts, tanks and lightweight everyday pieces. Our team works with cotton jersey, French terry, fleece, rib, interlock and blended knits, and we can source materials through our network of suppliers if you need guidance or specialty options.
We handle the full development process, including patternmaking, grading, sampling and production. If you need adjustments to an existing garment, technical refinement or a new pattern built from the ground up, we can support that work with clear communication and consistent results.
We also offer options for garment dye, enzyme wash, shrink testing, rib matching, and custom trims. Whether you are producing a basics line or a more design-driven collection, we ensure each piece fits and finishes cleanly.
