Linen shirts, resort pieces, and loungewear produced for lifestyle brands.
Tulum Fashions manufactures men's casual wear and premium basics in Medellín, Colombia. T-shirts, polos, shorts, lounge and co ord sets, produced full package for brands in the United States and Europe.
Nobody reorders a basic because it was interesting. They reorder because the second batch came back the same weight, the same colour and the same length as the first. Fabric consistency across lots is the whole job here.
Up to 3 colors inside that minimum, sizes mix freely. Runs of 100 to 149 carry a short run surcharge.
From approved sample and received deposit. Sampling itself takes about 3 weeks.
With a certificate of origin. Colombian apparel is not duty free, whatever the industry says. Chinese apparel runs 35 to 65%.
Development is paid work, quoted per style and charged before it starts. This is published policy, not a case by case negotiation.
Fabric and trim sourcing, patterns, tech pack, artwork, one physical sample.
3 rounds included in the fee.
Included. Courier is US$35.
100 to 149 runs carry a short run surcharge. Under 100 units is sampling, not production.
It rewards brands that put styles into production rather than subsidising brands that only explore.
credited at 500 units or more per style
credited at 1,000 units or more per style
The credit applies to the development fee only and is issued against the final production payment, never as an upfront discount. The order must be placed within 90 days of sample approval. Samples, extra fit rounds and shipping are never credited. Below 500 units per style the fee is not refundable: treat it as the cost of building the style, not as a deposit.
150 units per style, split across up to 3 colors. Sizes mix freely. Runs of 100 to 149 units are accepted with a short run surcharge. Under 100 units we treat the order as sampling rather than production.
T-shirts, polos, shorts, lounge sets, co ords and premium basics, plus swim, resort and activewear in the same factory.
The fabric reference, the pattern and the specification stay on file, and colour is signed off against a physical swatch rather than a screen. Repeat orders are matched to the approved standard, which is the part that fails when a brand moves between factories.
We quote finishes against a specific mill or laundry reference and pass through their documentation. We do not put a finish claim on a garment we cannot document.
6 to 8 weeks from approved sample and received deposit. Sampling takes about 3 weeks. Air freight from Medellín to the United States adds 3 to 5 days.
No. That claim is common in the industry and it is wrong. As of August 2026 Colombian apparel enters the United States at 12.5% with a valid certificate of origin. The advantage is real but it is a comparison, not an exemption: effective duties on Chinese apparel run 35 to 65%.
Yes, provided the brand can commit to 150 units per style and pay for development. Development is paid work: US$800 per style from scratch, US$550 if you bring your own tech pack. We do not absorb development cost in exchange for a future order.
Yes, handled as part of the programme and specified per style in the tech pack.
