Marl Fleece Zip Hoodie — Private Label

The Marl Fleece Zip Hoodie is a customisable zip-through hoodie manufactured by Giborn Apparel for labels that want visible fabric character without a print or badge. The marl yarn is spun from two or more fibre tones before knitting, so the depth is in the cloth itself rather than applied afterward — it photographs well, hides light wear, and gives a softer hand than a solid-dyed equivalent at the same weight. Part of our men’s jackets range, it suits brands positioning on material quality rather than graphics.

Customization Options

• Marl depth adjusted by changing the fibre ratio in the yarn blend
• Grey, oatmeal, navy and custom marl tones developed to your reference
• Cotton-rich or poly-blend marl depending on pilling tolerance and price point
• Regular or relaxed body, with cuff and hem rib tuned for recovery
• Tonal embroidery, which reads particularly well on a marl ground
• Full trim package — zip, pullers, drawcord, labelling and packaging

Why Produce With Giborn

Marl fabric is harder to match across dye lots than a solid, which is why we hold core fabric bases in inventory and store every roll by composition, GSM and colour lot. A repeat order is matched back to the original batch rather than re-developed. That inventory discipline is part of how we run production.

MOQ, Sampling & Lead Time

Flexible MOQ · Sampling 5–15 days · Bulk 30–60 days. If you are working from a stocked marl base the sampling round is short; a bespoke marl tone means yarn development first, which adds time at the front end. Our OEM and ODM service sets out both routes.

Send a fabric reference and we will match it or tell you honestly if it needs custom yarn. First time sourcing from China? Our guide on vetting a knitwear manufacturer lists the questions worth asking.
