About NO FUGAZI

Who Is NO FUGAZI?

A London-managed clothing manufacturer making custom streetwear for brands that need it built properly, from 50 pieces.

Everything is made to order. Sampling always comes first: your sample is made and approved before bulk production starts. Samples take 2-3 weeks, bulk takes 3-8 weeks after sample approval, and you do not need a tech pack to begin.

We are a manufacturer, not a print shop and not a middleman booking someone else's factory floor. Pattern development, fit development and the technical work all happen in house, so a brand can arrive with a sketch and leave with a finished production run.

Two pages carry the detail this one does not. See what we make and the capability behind it, or read how an order runs from first message to delivery.

What does NO FUGAZI mean?

The name means no fakes. Not in the garments, and not in what we tell you.
A still from the NO FUGAZI manufacturing story film, showing someone wearing an orange top and silver chains.

Fugazi is slang for fake. The name is the standard.

Brands get burned by manufacturers who overpromise, or who decorate a ready-made blank and call it custom. NO FUGAZI was built as the opposite of that.

In practice the name holds us to four things. Real garments, cut and sewn from scratch for your order, never stock passed off as custom. A real sample in your hands before a single bulk piece is made. Real timelines, given as ranges we can hold rather than a date we cannot. And a real quote, with changes to it always free, so you are never pushed into a spec you did not choose.

That is the whole idea. The rest of this page is what it looks like day to day.

Inside our facility

How do we operate?

Two halves, one company: a London team that runs your order, and our own dedicated overseas facility that makes it. Every stage below happens on our own line.

  1. 01Cutting

    Patterns are drafted for your fit and graded across your size range, then the lay is cut. This is what makes your sample and your bulk run the same garment.

  2. 02Sewing

    Cut panels go to the line and the garment is built to your approved spec: seam types, topstitch, cuff and hem finishes, and where your labels sit.

  3. 03Decoration

    Embroidery, screen print, sublimation, DTF, chenille patches and acid wash are done in house, so your decoration is not sent out and waited on.

  4. 04Pressing and finishing

    Every piece is pressed and finished by hand, then hung and checked before it goes anywhere near a bag.

  5. 05Quality control

    Four checkpoints: fabric inspection, in-process checks, post-production inspection and a final pre-shipment review. Every order passes all four.

  6. 06Packing and dispatch

    Bagged and boxed finished stock on racking, ready for dispatch from the NO FUGAZI facility

    Approved stock is bagged, boxed and shipped on a tracked international service, direct to you.

What we stand for

Four things we will not trade away, whatever the order size.

Cut, stitched and finished by hand

Every garment is made to order at our own facility and finished by hand. We hold no stock, so nothing is pulled off a shelf and relabelled as yours.

4-stage quality control

Fabric inspection, in-process checks, post-production inspection and a final pre-shipment review. Every order passes all four before it leaves the factory.

Design support for new brands

No tech pack needed. Bring a sketch, a moodboard, a reference photo or a garment you already own, and we handle pattern development, fit development and the technical work in house.

An honest MOQ: 50 pieces

Our minimum is 50 pieces, stated plainly rather than hidden until the quote. Designs, colours and fabrics can affect it, so send yours and we will confirm the number.
