Minku Apparel manufactures custom tracksuits for Berlin brands from 50 sets per design, covering nylon, polyester, velour and retro two-pieces, fully private-labelled and shipped DDP to Germany in roughly 6 to 9 days by air. The tracksuit is having a long moment in Berlin, pulled from the city’s 90s and 00s club and rave nostalgia, and a brand that builds a matched set properly owns a look the scene keeps coming back to.
This page covers how we produce custom tracksuits for the Berlin market: the technical and velour fabrics that define the set, matched construction and hardware, decoration and private-label finishing, MOQ and euro pricing, and DDP delivery with all duties handled. A tracksuit is a coordinated two-piece with zips, panels and trims, so the sampling and colour-matching process is where the quality is decided.
Why the tracksuit fits Berlin right now
The tracksuit taps directly into Berlin’s cultural memory. The city’s club and rave scene has carried a 90s and 00s reference for years, and the shell-suit and velour two-piece sits squarely inside it. Worn as an everyday look rather than sportswear, the tracksuit reads as knowing, retro and distinctly Berlin, and it moves through the colder months as a warm, complete outfit in a single purchase.
For a brand, the set carries the same commercial upside as any two-piece: it lifts the average order, presents a full look in one product shot, and puts the customer in head-to-toe branding. A distinctive tracksuit, in the right fabric and colourway, is the kind of piece a Berlin label becomes known for and reorders season after season.
As a dedicated custom tracksuit manufacturer, we build the jacket and the pant to one specification, one fabric and one dye lot, so the set reads as a genuine pair. Holding that match across reorders is what separates a premium tracksuit from a top and bottom that only loosely belong together.
Fabrics and matched construction
Our tracksuit program spans several fabric families to cover the looks Berlin brands ask for. Nylon and technical polyester deliver the classic shell-suit hand with a smooth face and a lining, velour gives the plush, retro two-piece its signature texture, and brushed polyester covers a softer everyday set. Each fabric is chosen to suit the silhouette and the season the brand is building for.
Construction is where a tracksuit is won or lost. We specify the zip, the collar, the panel layout, the piping or contrast trim, the cuff and hem finish and the pocket build on the tech pack, then produce to it. The jacket and pant are cut from one lot so the colour and texture match exactly, and the pant is graded to sit correctly with the jacket across the whole size run.
Every set is proven on a pre-production sample before bulk. You receive the full two-piece, check the colour match, the zip action, the fit and the finish together in Berlin, and sign off before we cut the run. That single step removes the most common tracksuit failures, a mismatched pair or a zip that binds.
Reading the Berlin tracksuit aesthetic
Berlin’s tracksuit taste runs to the retro and the tonal rather than the flashy. The strongest sets here reference the archive, muted or washed colourways, contrast piping used with restraint, and embroidered or tonal branding over loud all-over logos. The look should feel pulled from a 90s memory and reworked, not costume-like.
We build to that register. A velour set in a faded tone with matched piping and a small embroidered mark, or a technical nylon suit in washed black, lands far more convincingly in Berlin than a bright, logo-saturated sports set. We guide brands toward the fabrics, colours and trims that read correctly locally, so the finished tracksuit feels native to the scene it sells into.
Because we already manufacture across this aesthetic, a Berlin founder does not have to translate the vision from scratch. We understand the reference points, from fabric choice to piping colour, which gets the first sample closer to right and shortens the development cycle for the set.
Decoration and private label
Every finish runs in-house: embroidery for the retro chest-and-leg branding a tracksuit suits best, screen print and heat transfer on flat panels, woven and rubberised patches, and tonal detailing. On a set, decoration is kept coordinated across the jacket and pant so the two pieces read as one design rather than two separate garments.
Full private-label finishing is standard across both pieces. We produce custom woven and printed labels, size and care tags, embroidered or heat-transfer inner branding, custom zip pullers where volume allows, hang tags and packaging. The pre-production set you approve already carries your branding on both pieces, so what you sign off is a true, retail-ready representation of what ships in bulk.
Why Berlin brands produce tracksuits overseas
A tracksuit is one of the most component-heavy pieces a brand can make: two graded patterns, zips and hardware, linings, trims, matched fabric and coordinated decoration. Sourcing that inside Germany at a 50-set minimum is scarce and priced for large houses, which puts a proper tracksuit out of reach for most emerging Berlin labels working locally.
Manufacturing with Minku puts fabric sourcing, cutting, sewing, hardware, decoration and private-label finishing under one roof and one point of accountability. You are not coordinating a fabric supplier, a trims vendor and a finisher yourself and hoping the set comes together. That consolidation lets a small Berlin brand put a premium tracksuit into the market with the consistency of a much larger operation, while keeping creative control through the tech pack and the approved sample.
MOQ and euro pricing
Minimum order is around 50 sets per design and colorway. A tracksuit is two constructed garments with hardware, so it sits at the higher end of the range in absolute price, but it retails as a premium set and the per-set cost falls as you scale into reorders. Everything is quoted in euros with EU duty already included in the landed figure.
Set pricing tracks fabric, construction, hardware and decoration across both pieces. A lined velour or technical nylon suit with coordinated embroidery sits above a simpler brushed-poly set, reflecting the material and the labour in both garments. We compete on how the set is made and how faithfully the two pieces match, because a mismatched or poorly finished tracksuit damages a brand far more than one built properly.

DDP delivery to Germany, duties handled
Your tracksuits ship DDP, so we clear EU customs, pay the import duty and VAT, and deliver to your Berlin address. There is no broker to appoint and no charge waiting on delivery. Air freight runs about 6 to 9 days from dispatch, which suits an autumn or winter launch, and sea freight covers the larger reorders where per-unit cost leads.
Because the tracksuit is a season-long seller through the colder months, we plan production to land your core colourways before demand peaks. For the full shipping model, see what DDP shipping means, and to start a tracksuit run, get a quote with your specs and quantities.
From tech pack to delivered bulk
Production follows a fixed, low-risk path. You send artwork, references and measurements for both pieces. We develop the tech pack, source and match the fabric, and stitch a full pre-production set with hardware and decoration applied. You approve the match, fit, zip action and finish on the physical set in Berlin, and only then do we cut and sew the bulk order.
This sequence removes the risks that make brands wary of overseas set production, above all a jacket and pant that do not match or hardware that fails. Everything is locked on the sample first. Berlin labels often build the tracksuit alongside a matching fleece sweatsuit and a wider Berlin streetwear collection, so the whole range shares one identity.
