Typical Price Ranges for Custom Down Jackets (Factory Level)

Below are indicative price bands for export-ready factories. Final pricing always depends on your exact specification and order size.

These ranges are based on published wholesale and custom jacket listings on international sourcing platforms and should always be confirmed with an official factory quotation.

Why Prices Vary So Much

Several core variables drive the final unit cost of a custom down jacket:

1. Materials and Fabrics

Fabric and trims are one of the biggest contributors to price.

• Shell fabric quality: basic polyester vs waterproof, windproof, or breathable technical fabrics
• Lining quality: breathable or eco linings cost more than standard taffeta
• Zippers & trims: branded hardware (e.g., YKK) adds a noticeable premium

Higher-grade or technical fabrics can significantly increase per-piece cost compared with entry-level materials.

2. Insulation Type & Fill Power

Insulation choice affects both warmth and cost:

• Standard duck down – more affordable, widely used in mid-market jackets
• Higher fill power goose down – premium warmth, loft, and price
• Recycled down or synthetic fills – price varies based on source and certification

Down with higher fill power (e.g., 700+ FP) or heavier fill weight increases both performance and price.

3. Design & Construction Complexity

More complex patterns require more labor hours and machine time.

• Quilting pattern: simple horizontal vs multi-directional or 3D quilting
• Panel count: additional panels = more sewing operations
• Hood and collar structure: detachable hoods, high collars, or special shapes
• Technical performance features: taped seams, waterproof membranes, snow skirts, etc.

In general, a simple fashion puffer costs less than a fully technical outdoor parka with advanced features.

4. Order Quantity (MOQ)

Order volume has a direct impact on unit cost.

• Lower quantities (e.g., 50–100 pcs) typically have higher unit prices because fixed costs are spread across fewer pieces.
• Larger orders (e.g., 300–500+ pcs) benefit from better economies of scale.
• Factories often use tiered pricing based on quantity brackets.

5. Custom Branding & Extras

Branding and retail-ready upgrades add both material and processing costs:

• Custom labels, branded patches, woven or silicone logos
• Embroidery or printing (screen print, digital print, puff print, etc.)
• Customized packaging (boxes, special polybags, tissue paper)
• Retail-ready hangtags, barcodes, and size stickers

Each additional branding or packaging feature adds incremental cost per unit.

What Is Not Included in the Factory Price

The ex-factory jacket price usually does not cover the following items:

• International shipping and logistics charges
• Customs duties and import taxes in your country
• Third-party inspection fees (SGS, BV, Intertek, etc.) if requested
• Insurance for shipment (duty or freight insurance)

These items should be discussed and clarified during the quotation and contract stage.

How to Get an Accurate Price

To receive a precise quotation with real numbers for your project, prepare and share:

• ✔ Design specifications / tech pack or clear reference images
• ✔ Material types (shell, lining, insulation)
• ✔ Order quantity (MOQ, size breakdown)
• ✔ Customization & branding requirements
• ✔ Target delivery location (for logistics discussion)

Once these details are submitted, manufacturers can calculate a tailored price for your collection. （ref. m.ginwenwear.com）

Final Answer (Conclusion)

Custom down jackets generally cost anywhere from about $40–$150+ per unit at the factory level, depending on materials, insulation quality, design complexity, customization, and order quantity. Exact pricing can only be confirmed once your project specifications are clear.

Use these ranges as a planning reference, then work with your manufacturer to align cost, design, and target retail price.
