Types of Garment Samples:
Garment Performance Test（GPT）Sample
GPT sample refers to the production sample that is given for "Garment Performance Test". These samples are used for a series of tests that a brand would like to evaluate before
running the styles for production. The tests can include seam strength, seam slippage, colorfastness, wash fastness, among others.
Proto or Development Sample
The proto sample kickstarts the whole production cycle. Factories follow either the original sketch or a tech pack provided by the designer. The idea is to solely review the style and
design aesthetics, so it doesn't need to be constructed adhering to the full specifications.
Any fabric and trim with similar weight can be used depending on its availability.
Generally, three proto samples are made: two for the brand/designer's reference and one
for the factory's reference.
Pre-production Sample
A pre-production sample is the first sample made in the actual production line of the factory. It's constructed with the actual fabrics intended for the design and trims with all the order specification regarding measurements, embroidery, and washes. It's a test run by the factory and they can proceed with the bulk production only when the PP sample is approved by the brand.
Size Set Sample
After the fit sample has been approved, the base pattern for each size need to be graded, so samples could be created for the entire size range. Size set sampling includes three samples of each size which are made with the fabric and finishings intended for the final product. After this is complete, mass production can start once the brand gives their approval to the factories.
Add exact specs of your entire size-range in your tech packs.
Press Samples
Press samples are exact replicas of the final sellable product, usually in a model's sample size. They’re used for photographing promotional material like collection campaigns for advertising, look books, e-commerce and can be loaned to magazines for editorial photo shoots.
Shipment Sample
Once the bulk production is done and the shipment is finished, packed, and ready to go, a few samples are kept aside by the factory as shipment samples. These serve as to test the final product that will reach the brand; right from the folding to the packaging. Many brands will only approve shipping if the samples pass this test.
