   • What is the difference between Deepwove ODM and industry-standard ODM?

     “Industry-standard ODM means picking from a factory's existing designs and tweaking colorway or trim. Deepwove ODM is custom development from the brand's moodboard, sketch, or design IP — pattern, fabric sourcing, sampling, and production. The brand owns the design. Deepwove provides the development capability.”

   • How many development iterations does Deepwove typically run?

     “Most styles reach approved sample in 2-3 development iterations. First-round approvals are not uncommon when the brief is tight. Deepwove's in-house pattern team — 4 pattern makers, 4 designers, 2 fabric sourcing specialists — handles every iteration end-to-end inside the same Hangzhou studio.”

   • What is the minimum order quantity for ODM development?

   • What is the difference between a custom apparel manufacturer and a sourcing agent?

     “A sourcing agent forwards a brand's brief to a factory and marks up the invoice, adding cost without adding development capability. A custom apparel manufacturer produces the garment directly.”
