Featuring pattern-makers and seamstresses with an average of 20 years of experience, our technical team accelerates sales and fitting sample outputs, optimizing fit accuracy, structural drape, and processing efficiency.
Our account teams boast an average tenure of 10+ years. Serving department stores, specialty apparel brands, and supermarkets in over 30 countries, we translate technical directives, certifications, and compliance metrics into production workflows.
Evaluating the material matrix, knitting techniques, and tactile characteristics of double-knit spacer fabrics.
Scuba fabric is a double-knit spacer material created by knitting two separate faces of fabric together using a connecting microfilament layer. Unlike traditional neoprene which relies on synthetic rubber membranes, scuba fabric is constructed entirely on high-gauge circular knitting machines. This produces a structural drape, elastic recovery, and crease resistance, making it suitable for modern, structurally stable track pants.
Typically composed of polyester/spandex or viscose/polyester/spandex, yielding a smooth touch, structural thickness, and excellent thermal regulation.
Brushed thermal options suited for colder climates, featuring double-sided nap for elevated air entrapment and heat retention.
Classic diagonal-loopback constructions optimized for moisture absorption, breathability, and mid-weight comfort.
High-stretch double-knits and ribbed structures used for track pant cuffs, waistbands, and side panels to improve fitting performance.
Ningbo Jinmao partners with certified spinning mills to supply certified materials, including:
How Ningbo Jinmao leverages geographical diversification, capacity reserves, and tech-driven production to mitigate supply chain risks.
Ningbo Jinmao has established production bases in Jiangxi, Anhui, Henan, and Zhejiang. Maintaining a regional footprint allows us to match labor resources, energy costs, and shipping routes to our clients' budget and lead-time constraints.
Our ecosystem integrates over 30 long-term cooperative factories, employing more than 10,000 skilled workers across 100+ active production lines. These facilities maintain auditing credentials under major international frameworks, including WARP, BSCI, Sedex, and Disney FAMA.
This scale enables a production capacity of 10 million finished garments annually, providing the headroom needed to absorb seasonal surges and large-volume orders.

A step-by-step overview of how our design, sampling, and quality control departments execute client orders.
Clients provide technical drawings, reference garments, or conceptual briefs. Our design team analyzes fabric structures and recommends suitable blends (polyester/spandex, modal, or eco-polymers) to match budget, target retail price, and functional specifications.
We create fit samples matching the requested measurements and construction. This prototype allows customers to confirm sizing, drape, pocket placements, and seam strength before proceeding.
Every detail—including lab dips, print strikes, custom embroidery, zippers, metal eyelets, and packaging materials—is confirmed during this stage to align bulk production with the approved design.
Before full-scale production begins, we assemble a final Pre-Production (PP) sample using the exact fabrics, trims, and sewing setups chosen for the bulk run. This sample serves as the quality benchmark for our QC teams during manufacturing.
With the PP sample approved, we schedule bulk knitting and cutting. Our regional QC team performs in-line inspections, verifying sewing parameters, seam allowances, print alignment, and overall finishing quality.
Before packing, randomly selected shipment samples are sent to the client or to third-party labs (such as SGS or BV) to verify properties like color fastness, dimensional stability, and stretch recovery. Finished orders are then cleared for delivery.
Improving aesthetic appeal, brand positioning, and functional wear through specialized finishing techniques.
To help brands differentiate their scuba track pants, we offer a range of printing, embroidery, and post-processing treatments. Our technical merchandisers work directly with you to select the appropriate option for your chosen fabric.
Supports high-resolution, complex patterns with deep color saturation. Ideal for modern streetwear styling, without compromising the natural flexibility of scuba fabric.
Uses water-based inks that penetrate the fiber structure, maintaining a soft, breathable feel on blended scuba materials.
Applies heat and pressure to create permanent, textured patterns. Works well with the double-knit spacer construction of scuba fabrics.
Helping international buyers manage compliance, minimize duties, and optimize delivery schedules.
Managing an apparel supply chain across international borders requires a thorough understanding of customs compliance, regional tariffs, and logistic safety. Ningbo Jinmao exports to more than 30 countries and regions, including North America, the European Union, Japan, and Australia.
We assist our clients with complex logistical and compliance requirements, including:
We prepare all necessary export documentation, including Certificates of Origin, GSP Form A (where applicable), material content analysis sheets, and commercial invoices. This documentation helps prevent customs delays at ports of entry.
We partner with independent testing laboratories like SGS, Intertek, and BV to provide certified testing reports. These reports confirm fiber composition, fabric weight (GSM), color fastness, shrinkage levels, and seam tensile strength.
We offer FOB, CIF, DDP, and LDP shipping arrangements depending on the client's internal setup. Our partnerships with shipping lines and freight forwarders help optimize routes, manage shipping costs, and meet tight delivery windows.
Developing the next generation of performance fabrics and sustainable production processes.
We are working to integrate bio-based spandex and recycled elastane polymers into our scuba fabric blends, helping to reduce reliance on petrochemical-derived materials while maintaining stretch and recovery performance.
Our R&D team is testing phase-change materials (PCMs) within the middle spacer chamber of scuba knits. This technology aims to store and release thermal energy, improving comfort across varying temperatures.
We are rolling out digital supply chain tracking to provide complete transparency from yarn production to finished garments. This will allow brands to verify raw material sources and manufacturing compliance.
Technical and commercial answers to common sourcing, production, and quality control inquiries.
Our pricing is dynamic and determined by fabric compositions, order volume, garment complexity, and finishing details. We provide customized, line-item quotations within 24 hours of receiving design tech packs or reference samples.
Yes. MOQs vary by garment style, complexity, and specific fabric choice. To support emerging brands, we offer flexible sourcing options: if a custom knit does not meet the minimum dye-run quantity, we can recommend alternative fabrics from our inventory to help you launch without excess stock risk.
Yes. We provide complete documentation packages, including Certificates of Analysis/Conformance, insurance records, Certificates of Origin, GRS certificates for recycled polyester, and export clearance paperwork.
Sample development typically takes 7-14 days. For bulk production, lead times range from 3-4 weeks for simpler styles to 4-5 weeks for complex designs following pre-production sample approval. Final timelines also depend on inspection requirements and shipping schedules.
Our standard terms are advance Telegraphic Transfer (T/T) or Letter of Credit (L/C) at sight. For established partners with sufficient credit insurance coverage within China, we can also discuss post-delivery T/T terms.
We stand behind our materials and manufacturing quality. We investigate any defects in materials or stitching and work with our clients to resolve them through replacement credits, repairs, or chargebacks.
Yes, we encourage sample development to verify fit, fabric selection, and processing details before committing to bulk production. Sample fees apply to cover pattern making and material costs, which are offset when the bulk order is finalized.
No, the website showcases only a portion of our customizable apparel capabilities. We work with our clients to manufacture custom designs, specialty fabrics, and custom-branded sportswear from the ground up.
Comprehensive partnerships based on mutual benefit, environmental standards, and quality management.
Our factories are audited regularly by independent certification bodies to verify working conditions, safety standards, and environmental practices.
