Solid Color Silk Shirt Mens

Order FAQs

1. What is your process for achieving perfect color consistency across large production runs of solid color shirts, especially for challenging shades like pure white, deep black, and navy?

We implement a Batch Dyeing with Master Standard System. For each color, we create a “master standard” fabric swatch and corresponding dye recipe. All fabric for an order is dyed in a single batch where possible. For orders exceeding single-batch capacity, we conduct inter-batch matching under controlled lighting (D65 standard) to ensure a Delta E (color difference) of less than 1.0—visually indistinguishable to the human eye. We provide approval swatches from the production batch.

2. What silk weaves do you offer for solid color shirts, and how do they differ in terms of luster, drape, and formality?

We offer three core weaves for solids:

Silk Twill: Diagonal weave, matte to soft luster, excellent drape and structure. Ideal for business and smart-casual shirts.

Silk Poplin: Plain weave, crisp hand, subtle sheen. The most classic “dress shirt” feel.

Silk Crepe de Chine: Pebbled texture, matte finish, fluid drape. Perfect for relaxed, luxury casual shirts.

We provide physical “Weave Selection Cards” to feel and see the difference.

3. Can you produce a core range of staple colors (e.g., white, blue, grey, black) that are always available for quick reordering with short lead times?

Yes. We maintain a “Core Color Library” of 12-15 staple shades in our most popular weaves (Twill & Poplin) as stocked fabric. This allows for “Quick-Ship” reorders with a lead time of just 30-35 days for production, bypassing the 3-4 week dyeing process. MOQ for Quick-Ship orders is 200 pieces per color/style.

4. What level of fit customization do you offer for basic solid color shirts? Can we develop our own proprietary block pattern?

We offer full fit customization. You can:

Choose from our standard fit blocks (Classic, Slim, Modern).

Modify an existing block (e.g., adjust sleeve taper, shoulder slope) – MOQ 500 pcs per modified fit.

Develop a proprietary block from scratch – involves a pattern-making fee and MOQ of 1,500 pcs for the first order. We provide 3D digital fit simulations during development.

5. What is your minimum order quantity for a custom solid color, and can we order multiple colors below the per-color MOQ if the total order is large enough?

Our per-color MOQ is 300 shirts for custom dyeing. However, we offer a “Color Palette Program”: if your total order exceeds 1,200 pieces, you can split it across multiple custom colors with a minimum of 150 pieces per color. This is ideal for building a coordinated core collection.

6. How do you ensure the color is fast to washing and light, and what certifications can you provide?

All our dyes are OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified. We subject every color to AATCC 61 (Colorfastness to Laundering) and AATCC 16 (Colorfastness to Light) tests. Our standard guarantees a rating of 4-5 (Excellent) for washing and 4 (Good) for light fastness. Test reports are available for bulk orders.

7. What are the options for minimalistic branding on a solid color shirt (e.g., inside label, discreet embroidery)?

We focus on elegant, subtle branding for solid classics:

Woven Inner Neck Label: Standard.

Inside Collar Stand Embroidery: A single line of text or tiny logo (min. 500 pcs).

Signature Stitch Color: Using a contrast thread for all topstitching (e.g., black shirt with silver stitching).

Custom Mother-of-Pearl Buttons: With a laser-etched mark (min. 1,000 button sets).

8. What is your production capacity and lead time for bulk orders of staple solid color shirts (e.g., 5,000+ pieces)?

Our dedicated solid shirt line has a monthly capacity of 25,000+ pieces. For bulk orders (5,000+), lead time is 55-60 days from order confirmation. We assign a dedicated production manager and provide weekly progress reports. Volume-based tiered pricing applies, offering significant economies of scale.
