How to choose
With children's underwear the label decides the purchase, not the price: tracking labels and third-party test reports are usually requested before the first order. Packs by size or by school year cut dead stock and simplify school programmes.
Boys’ Boxer Briefs — Cotton, Custom Print, Yarn-Dyed Stripe — catalogue reference UT-B31718. Cloth, sizing and packing below come from the sample we already run for this article.
We do not manufacture — we manage. Unitex, based in Xiamen, Fujian Province, develops the sample, assigns the order to an audited partner workshop in the Xiamen–Quanzhou–Jinjiang cluster, and carries the specification, the quality plan and the delivery commitment. Keeping trade and production separate is what lets us match the workshop to the garment.
Fabric and construction
Lime green bands alternate with charcoal and a narrow white line across the whole leg, and because the stripe is yarn-dyed the colour sits inside the fibre rather than on top of it — wash after wash the sequence stays where the knitter set it. The waistband is one solid lime tone, so the stripe never competes with it, and the centre front is set in as a separate panel with its own seam allowance, which gives this brief its shape across the front without pulling the stripe out of line. Cut mid-thigh with a straight hem, so it reads as a brief rather than a short. Fits spring/summer school and holiday programmes in Southern Europe and Latin America.

Buyer questions on this style
What fabric does UT-B31718 use? 95% semi-combed cotton 5% elastane single jersey 175GSM.
Which sizes are available on UT-B31718? Ranges from 86/92 till 146/152 or as to customer’s size table.
What is the MOQ for UT-B31718, and can I start smaller? 3,000 pcs per style and colour.
How is UT-B31718 packed for retail? 1 piece per polybag or as per customer’s request.
How long do sampling and bulk take on UT-B31718? Sampling 7–10 days; bulk 45–60 days, FOB Xiamen.
Can the stripe sequence and colourway be changed without developing new fabric? Yes. On a yarn-dyed stripe the sequence is fixed at knitting rather than at printing, so new colour combinations come from the yarn card and do not require a new greige. MOQ applies per colourway at 3,000 pcs per style and colour, and we will confirm the sequence repeat before sampling so the ratio of lime, charcoal and white is exactly what your artwork shows.
Does this style come in a 60 mm jacquard waistband? The brief ships on a solid lime elastic with no logo, which is what the sample photo shows. A 60 mm jacquard tape carrying your own logo can be quoted on the same block — send the logo as vector artwork and allow the jacquard development inside the 7–10 day sampling window.
Customisation: packaging and what it does to landed cost
Packaging is the variable that moves logistics cost most and gets reviewed last. A piece in a plain PE bag is not the same shipment as one in a carton, a plastic case, a tin or a gift box: unit cost changes, carton volume changes, and so does how many pieces fit a container.
That is why it should be settled before the order is confirmed, not after. We work from the simplest format up to display and gift packaging, and in every case we calculate export carton volume against the chosen format so the quote reflects real freight rather than an estimate.
