garment manufacturing in the usa

Located in the activewear capital, it's probably no surprise that this is our core focus.  JLD specializes in leggings, matching sportsbra sets, leotards, swimwear and many other athleisure and casual sportswear styles with our us activewear production capabilities.

Our production lines are flexible to manage small to large production runs.  All materials are cut on a conveyor laser system that maximizes yield and efficiency.  This set-up is specially designed to manage disproportioned size ranges and engineered designs.  Allowing brands the flexibility to order the quantities needed for first runs, pre-orders, or to backfill a single size. 

We believe in a just in time business model, which helped us quickly pivot through the ups and downs of COVID and prepare for the unexpected. Garment Manufacturing lead times vary,  but we recommend planning on 8-12 weeks.  To help manage ecommerce inventory we offer monthly shipment programs, and made to order options.
