Customer Reviews

September 2026 | Verified Purchase

“We ordered a washed knit sweater collection for our autumn range. The first sample needed a small adjustment to the sleeve length, but Chengyuan handled it without making the process complicated. The final bulk order had a nice, consistent washed finish, and the packaging was exactly what we requested.”

June 2026 | Verified Purchase

“I was mainly concerned about getting the same washed color across the whole order. We approved a sample before production and used it as the reference. The bulk shipment looked very close to the approved sample. Communication with the production team was also straightforward.”

March 2026 | Verified Purchase

“We developed a loose-fit washed knit top with our own measurements and branding. The sampling stage took a little back and forth, but that was expected for a new design. Once the specifications were confirmed, production went smoothly. The fabric hand feel was one of the strongest points.”

November 2025 | Verified Purchase

“We were looking for something less polished than standard knitwear, with a soft vintage appearance. Chengyuan helped us develop the washed effect and custom labels. The finished garments matched the direction of our collection very well. We are already discussing the next color range.”

October 2024 | Verified Purchase

“This was our first washed knitwear project with Chengyuan, so we started with a relatively conservative order. The factory understood our reference sample and branding requirements. There were a few details we changed during sampling, but the final production met our expectations and arrived well packed.”
