THERE ARE MANY REASONS TO START. WHAT MOVES YOU?
WE BUILD FOR BOTH — PICK A ROAD
We support brands that want to reach the next level — from a first sample to a full season. Four base camps, one team, our own factory hall.
Every piece starts on paper. Our designers translate your moodboard into patterns, weights and colourways — and tell you honestly what will and won't survive a wet night on the ridge.
SEE THE STUDIO
Ripstop, coated nylon, recycled poly — we stock the swatches and know the mills. Pick from the shelf or bring your own spec; either way you get the test report before the first roll is cut.
FABRIC LIBRARY
One hall, one hundred and twenty machines, the same team for every repeat. Seams are taped, poles are matched, every tent is pitched once before it is folded.
INSIDE THE HALL
Before a product ships, it sleeps outside. We pitch, pack and abuse the samples on real ridges so the first review your customer writes is a good one.
TEST DIARIES
Four product families, all made under one roof. Start with a catalogue piece and adapt it, or bring a blank sheet — the path is the same.
Your label, our hall. Minimums from 300 units per style, samples in three weeks, full tech packs included. We keep the moulds so your second season is faster than the first.
Summit Gear Works started fourteen years ago as a contract sewing shop in one hall outside Hangzhou. Same hall today, same habit of sleeping in our own tents — but now we are the factory brands call when the first supplier said “can't”.
Would you like to see how a tent is born? Book a factory visit, or start with the catalogue and a sample.
Half a day in the hall: cutting, sewing, taping, pitching. Bring your sketches — we usually leave with a sample plan.
BOOK A VISITSixty catalogue pieces you can adapt. Order a sample set and we ship it with the tech pack.
