You bring the brand and the designs — we manufacture every garment in our UK workshop as it’s ordered, and ship it to you or straight to your customers. No stock. No minimums. No £2,000 gamble on a pallet of guesswork.

Every garment is made after it’s sold.

Who this is for

Built for people with a brand in them

Fighters & coaches

You’ve got a name and a following. Turn it into a label — without buying a single box of stock.

Gym & academy owners

Merch your members actually wear, ordered whenever they want it. No kit cupboard, no reorders.

First-time founders

You’ve got the idea and the ambition. We’re the manufacturer, storefront and shipping department behind it.

Brands stuck with stock

Already running a label on overseas stock? Move it to made-to-order and never guess a size curve again.

Just ordering club kit with your artwork ready? You don’t need a package — request a team quote.

No stock. Ever.

Made to order, explained

Print on demand, for fight wear. One garment at a time, piece by piece — nothing exists until a customer has already paid for it.

1

Your designs live in our library

Your artwork is set up on every garment and size you sell — ready for production, costing you nothing while it sits there.

2

An order comes in

A customer buys from your store — any garment, any size. There’s no stock to check, because there is no stock.

3

We make that garment

Printed, cut and sewn in our Aylesbury workshop, typically in 3–5 working days. Every garment made individually — minimum order of one.

4

It ships. You keep the margin.

Sent to you or direct to your customer. You set the retail price, pay your unit rate, and keep the difference — on every sale.

Your customer pays firstFull retail, at your price, in your store — plus delivery at their checkout, like any store. Paid before anything exists.
Then we make itOne garment, printed, cut & sewn in Aylesbury and shipped direct — you’re only ever billed for what’s already sold.
You’re never out of pocketNo stock bought, nothing at risk — you keep the margin on every sale, and you never spent a penny before it was covered.

You set your own retail prices. Unit rates run in volume brackets — sell more and your rate falls, and higher packages start you in a better bracket. Your full rate card is handed over in your Blueprint session.

£0 tied up in stock. A design that doesn’t sell costs you nothing. You’re paid before we even switch the printer on.

The maths every founder runs

The overseas route vs. this one

Price up a starter range — 30 rashguards, 30 shorts, 30 spats, 30 performance tees — with an overseas factory, and here’s what that quote really turns into.

Overseas stock route
£2,300–2,500 landed
Brick & Grit — Full Label
£1,499 setup
The £1,600–2,000 quote is never the real number — freight, import VAT, duty and sampling fees on top
£1,499 flat — that is the number
120 units in a guessed size curve — 30–40% typically dies in the wrong sizes
No stock at all — every garment made when it’s ordered, every size from day one
8–12 weeks before anything arrives
Live in weeks, store included
Paid by bank wire, no protection
£99 by card to start — samples in your hands before you commit to anything
Questions answered overnight, specs lost in translation, WhatsApp at 3am
A workshop you can call — or visit — in Aylesbury
Sold out of Large? That’s another minimum order and another 10-week wait
A restock of one, made this week
Minimums are per design — four designs means four times the stock gamble
Launch ten designs at once — a design costs nothing until it sells
And you still have no store, no photos, no brand — just boxes
A live store, product photos, a launched brand — and budget left for marketing, not boxes

Costs less than their stock alone — and none of it ends up in boxes under your bed.

Straight terms

The rules we work by

Setup is setup. Production is production.

Package prices buy the build and onboarding. Every garment is billed separately at your level’s unit rates — you only ever pay for what you order.

You never pay for the same step twice

Upgrade within 90 days and everything you’ve paid toward a package comes off the next one, in full — and if life gets in the way, talk to us.

Climb the ladder, drop your cost price

Production Partner starts you on bulk pricing, Full Label lower still — before you’ve sold a thing. Sell more and your rate keeps falling, all the way to our best.

You own your brand

Your domain in your name, your designs, your customer list. Leave whenever you like and take all of it with you.

Your designs, our production

Every package assumes you supply the artwork — or build it in our online designer. Want our design team to create it for you? Happy to — it’s quoted separately in your Blueprint session.

We build it. You sell it.

Every package buys infrastructure — the store, the shelf, the production line behind it. Nobody can guarantee sales, and anyone who does is lying to you. Your marketing and your community decide those; our job is making sure everything behind the sale just works.

Your first sales are on us

Production Partner and above: we waive the production cost on the first garments sold through your storefront — 5 at Production Partner, 10 at Full Label and Stocked. Whatever your customer pays, you keep.

Questions founders ask

Starting a fight wear brand — the basics

How much does it cost to start a fight wear brand?

With made-to-order production you don’t buy stock, so the real cost is setup. Our packages run from £99 for a Blueprint session to £1,499 for a complete store with 20 products ready to sell — compared with the £2,300+ most founders spend on a first overseas stock order. There’s also an approval-only £2,499 level that puts your brand on Minotaur Fight Store’s shelves. Garments are billed per unit as they sell.

Do I need to buy stock to start my own brand?

No. Every garment is made after it’s sold — printed, cut and sewn to order in our UK workshop, with no minimum order. A design that never sells costs you nothing.

What can I put my own brand on?

Rashguards, fight shorts, 2-in-1 MMA shorts, Muay Thai and boxing shorts, spats, singlets, performance t-shirts and hoodies — every piece made to order under your own label, in every size, from a single unit.

Do I need my own designs?

Yes — you supply the artwork, or build it yourself in our online designer. If you’d like our design team to create or finish artwork for you, we can — that’s quoted separately in your Blueprint session.

How long does it take to launch?

A Blueprint session books in days, and each garment is typically manufactured in 3–5 working days once ordered. A Full Label build — your own website with products ready to sell — goes live in weeks, not months.

Teams & gyms

Got artwork and a quantity?
