Founder of British Boxing Brand Visits Rise Sportswear: A Partnership Built on Innovation and Craftsmanship

When James Carter, founder of the UK's fast-growing boxing apparel brand, stepped into Rise Sportswear's manufacturing facility last month, it wasn't just a routine factory tour. It marked the culmination of a collaboration that blended cutting-edge sportswear design with Rise's expertise in advanced manufacturing techniques like sublimation printing, embroidery, and screen printing. For B2B partners like this British boxing brand, the visit underscored why global brands trust Rise Sportswear to transform their creative visions into high-performance, market-ready products. 

Why Global Brands Choose Rise Sportswear

As a leading custom sportswear manufacturer, Rise Sportswear has built its reputation on three pillars: technical precision, versatility in decoration methods, and a customer-centric approach. While sublimation printing remains our flagship service—ideal for vibrant, long-lasting designs on boxing shorts, compression wear, and training gear—our capabilities extend far beyond. From intricate embroidery for premium branding to durable screen printing for bulk orders, we tailor solutions to meet the unique demands of each client.  

James Carter's visit highlighted this flexibility. "We needed a partner who could handle everything from small-batch custom designs to large-scale production without compromising quality," he noted. "Rise delivered on every front—speed, creativity, and attention to detail."  

Inside the British boxing brand Project: A Case Study in Custom Sportswear Manufacturing

1. Design Phase: Bringing Concepts to Life with Sublimation

British boxing brand approached Rise with a bold vision: boxing apparel that combined retro-inspired graphics with modern moisture-wicking fabrics. Sublimation printing emerged as the ideal choice, allowing seamless full-color designs that wouldn't crack or fade.  

Our team worked closely with British boxing brand's designers to optimize artwork for sublimation, ensuring sharp details and dynamic color gradients. "The ability to print complex patterns across entire garments was a game-changer," Carter remarked. "Rise's technical guidance helped us avoid common pitfalls in color matching and fabric compatibility."

2. Embroidery and Branding: Elevating Premium Appeal

While sublimation defined the British boxing brand's aesthetic, Rise's embroidery expertise added a tactile luxury to logos and trims. Using 12-head Tajima machines, we stitched dense, high-thread-count logos onto waistbands and sleeves—a critical detail for establishing brand authority in competitive retail markets.  

3. Speed-to-Market: From Prototyping to Delivery in 4 Weeks

With a product launch tied to a major boxing event, the British boxing brand required rapid prototyping and scalable production. Rise's in-house sampling team delivered 3D tech packs and physical samples within 72 hours, followed by a 15,00-unit production run completed in record time.  

"Their vertical integration was key," said Carter. "Having dyeing, printing, and cutting under one roof eliminated delays. We went from concept to warehouse in 30 days."  

Beyond Sublimation: Rise Sportswear's Full Suite of Decoration Techniques

While British boxing brand leveraged sublimation and embroidery, Rise Sportswear supports clients across diverse decoration needs:  

- Screen Printing: Cost-effective for bulk orders, ideal for bold logos and minimalist designs.  

- Heat Transfer (DTF/HTV): Perfect for small batches or adding metallic/glow-in-the-dark effects.  

- Laser Cutting: For precision fabric detailing on performance wear.  

- Hybrid Techniques: Combining embroidery with printed panels for multidimensional designs.  

"Many manufacturers specialize in one area," Carter observed. "But Rise's ability to mix techniques let us create truly unique products. Their team even suggested a heat-activated color-changing logo we hadn't considered—it's now a bestselling feature."  

Quality Assurance: How Rise Ensures Zero-Defect Deliveries

For B2B partners, consistency is non-negotiable. Rise's 12-step quality control process includes:  

- Pre-production fabric testing (colorfastness, shrinkage, abrasion resistance).  

- In-line inspections during printing/embroidery.  

- 3rd-party lab certifications for eco-compliance and safety.  

The British boxing brand's order underwent 23 quality checkpoints, resulting in a 0.15% defect rate—well below the industry average of 2%.  

The Future of British boxing brand x Rise Sportswear

The success of the initial collection has paved the way for an expanded partnership. Upcoming projects include:  

- Sustainable Line: Using Rise's recycled polyester fabrics with water-based sublimation inks.  

- Kids' Apparel: Scaling down designs for youth sizes using precision digital printing.  

- Accessories: Matching hand wraps and gym bags with coordinated embroidery.  

"This isn't just a vendor relationship," Carte mphasized. "Rise feels like an extension of our team. They challenge us to innovate technically while keeping costs lean."
