# Branded Clothing Platforms 'Sewport' Connects Brands with Clothing Manufacturers By Joey Haar | Published 2018-02-07 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sewport References: [sewport](https://sewport.com/?ref=producthunt) Branded clothing is a guaranteed way to add an air of corporate professionalism to one's company, and Sewport is a new platform that makes it easy for brands to produce their own professionally tailored clothing to their precise specifications. The platform connects brands with [clothing manufacturers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hypedrop), letting them choose from a host of options to find the company that can best produce their ideal clothing. There are plenty of independent companies that can print simple branded clothing items like t-shirts or hoodies, but those prints often come off looking cheap. Professionally manufactured clothing is a far better option, but it has previously been difficult to make that happen without any connections in the clothing industry. Sewport effectively serves as that connection. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.9/10 - Popularity: 56% | Activity: 52% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Increased Demand for Branded Clothing:** Brands are looking for ways to add a professional touch to their company by producing their own branded clothing. - **Online Platforms Connecting Brands and Manufacturers:** Platforms like Sewport are emerging to bridge the gap between brands and clothing manufacturers, making it easier to connect and collaborate. - **Growing Preference for Professionally Manufactured Clothing:** Consumers are increasingly seeking high-quality, professionally manufactured clothing over cheap, printed options. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion and Apparel Manufacturing:** Manufacturers in the fashion and apparel industry have the opportunity to collaborate with brands through online platforms like Sewport. - **E-commerce and Online Retail:** E-commerce platforms can integrate features that connect brands with clothing manufacturers, catering to the demand for branded clothing. - **Print-on-demand Services:** Print-on-demand companies can explore partnerships with professionally manufactured clothing manufacturers to offer a wider range of customized branded clothing. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Virtual Clothing Designers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pocket-styler-studio.md) - [Brand Discovery Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smartcustomer.md) - [Ready-Made Brand Marketplaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brands-like-these.md) - [Sustainable Indian Streetwear Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cloveify.md) - [Connection-Driven Apparel Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cool-to-connect-1.md) - [AI-Powered Fashion Design Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/make-the-dot.md) - [Digital-First Designer Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-frntal.md) - [E-Commerce Denim Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/denim-platform.md) - [Open 3D Printing Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zellerfeld-1.md)
