Underwear Manufacturing for Lifestyle Brands

Managed production of men's and women's underwear through vetted factories in China, Peru, and El Salvador. One point of contact from fabric to delivery.

Trusted Underwear Manufacturing for Growing Brands

MakeMine is an underwear manufacturer and supplier for growing, founder-led brands. We manage production of men's boxer briefs, briefs, and trunks, and women's briefs, boyshorts, bralettes, and seamless intimates through personally vetted factories in China, El Salvador, and Peru, with sample lead times of 20-30 days. One point of contact runs your program from fabric sourcing through delivery.

An Underwear Production Partner, Not a Directory

Underwear is a replenishment business. Your customers reorder, which means your production has to run like clockwork: consistent fit run after run, elastic that performs identically across POs, and reorders that ship on time. Marketplaces hand you a factory list. MakeMine runs the program: we source fabric and trims, manage sampling and fit development, negotiate pricing, schedule inspections, and track freight through delivery. Because we represent multiple brands at each factory, we hold priority slots on the production line and negotiate terms a single brand can't get alone.

What We Make

Men's: boxer briefs, briefs, trunks, boxers, and performance styles with support pouches and fly options.

Women's: briefs, bikinis, boyshorts, thongs, high-waist styles, bralettes, and seamless intimates.

Construction capabilities include covered and exposed elastic waistbands, custom jacquard waistband branding, flatlock and coverstitch seaming, bonded and laser-cut edges, seamless circular-knit construction, and lined gussets.

Fabrics Built for Next-to-Skin Wear

Fabric is the product in underwear. We source and develop:

  • Modal and micromodal (120-180 GSM): silky hand-feel and drape for premium everyday lines
  • Cotton-elastane blends (150-220 GSM): the daily-wear workhorse, with controlled stretch and recovery
  • Pima cotton and natural-fiber blends: including alpaca-blend development through our Peru factory for brands building a natural-fiber story
  • Performance synthetics: moisture-wicking nylon-spandex and recycled poly for active styles
  • Bamboo and eco-viscose: for sustainability-led collections

All fabrics can be developed to your spec with OEKO-TEX certified mills, custom-dyed to your palette, and tested for shrinkage, stretch recovery, and colorfastness before production.

Fit Development That Survives Reorders

Fit is why customers keep or return underwear, and why they reorder. Every program includes pattern and fit development, graded size runs, wear testing on request, and golden-sample matching so your fifth PO fits exactly like your first. We build shrinkage allowances into patterns so garments hold their fit after washing, not just out of the bag.

One Managed Program Across Your Whole Line

Most underwear factories make underwear and nothing else. MakeMine clients run their entire essentials line through one program: underwear, tees, and fleece in China, natural-fiber styles in Peru, all with one point of contact and one platform tracking every PO. If you're managing three factories over WhatsApp today, this is the model that replaces it.

Private Label & Full-Package Production

We run full-package (FPP/OEM) underwear programs from fabric sourcing through finished, labeled, packed garments: custom jacquard waistbands, printed labels or tagless heat transfers, hangtags, polybags, and retail-ready packaging.

Consistent Quality, Every Run

Every program includes fit sampling, pre-production approvals, and in-line and final inspections against approved samples. Elastic tension, seam strength, and measurements are checked against spec on every run.
