WHO WE ARE: Vertical Manufacturing Excellence

Founded in 2004 in Shenzhen City, Guangdong Province, China, Shenzhen SLO Fashion Co., Ltd. builds upon a rich garment manufacturing heritage started by our parent company in Hangzhou in 1990.

To accommodate rapid business growth, the SLO factory was established in Shenzhen. Today, our advanced facility spans 35,000 square meters and features a state-of-the-art production plant, employee dormitories, and specialized recreation areas. Together, both factories employ over 300 highly skilled staff members, producing more than 50,000 high-fashion and technical sportswear garments per month.

We have invested extensively in pioneering apparel technology sourced globally. Our cutting-edge floor is equipped with Italian PGM automatic cutting machines and systems, computer-controlled automatic sewing machines, template cutting machinery, sleeve-setting modules, welt pocket opening machinery, and a massive 3.5 x 2 meter fusing machine, guaranteeing absolute precision across every seam and stitch.

Serving the Latvian Sportswear & Activewear Ecosystem

Bridging the gap between elite high-performance design and strict Baltic environmental compliance.

Baltic Climate Adaptation

Latvia's seasonal variations demand adaptable athletic apparel. From freezing winters requiring thermal insulation and windproof shells to humid summers needing high-breathability mesh fabrics, we customize fabric weight (GSM) and blend specifications to withstand the Baltic climate.

EU Compliance & Eco-Labeling

Our materials comply fully with EU REACH regulations and OEKO-TEX Standard 100 guidelines. As Baltic consumers prioritize sustainability, we offer recycled polyester, organic cotton blends, and biodegradable packaging to align with EU circular economy targets.

Direct Logistics to Riga

We offer streamlined freight pathways directly to Riga. With established maritime connections from Shenzhen Port and express air transit options, we handle import customs clearance support, offering duty-paid delivery (DDP) options to Latvian distributors.

Latvian Sports Infrastructure & Customization Demand

The sports culture in Latvia is rapidly expanding, with basketball (LBL), football (Virslīga), cycling, and winter sports leading the community focus. Local retail brands and professional associations require custom-sublimated, tear-resistant, and high-tensile sportswear that reflects club identities while providing optimal thermal comfort. By integrating advanced Chinese fabric technology with European design sensitivities, we empower Latvian athletic brands to scale efficiently without the capital-intensive overhead of local manufacturing.

WHAT WE OFFER: Vertically Integrated Design & Production

As an Original Design Manufacturer (ODM) for over 25 years, our company is dedicated to manufacturing high-quality womenswear and activewear for famous international brands.

The core value of SLO is our ability to deliver a comprehensive, vertical sourcing solution under one roof. We oversee the entire lifecycle of your apparel line—from yarn sourcing and custom fabric development to computer-designed patterning, precise robotic cutting, flatlock stitching, quality assurance testing, and international shipping.

Our products are highly rated by business partners across the USA, Germany, the UK, Scandinavia, and the broader Baltic market. Our corporate environment is built on mutual support and technical growth:

  • Commitment to a healthy, safe, and collaborative workplace environment.
  • Systematic employee skill development and resources to support personal and company goals.
  • Attractive remuneration packages and advanced training programs.
  • Adherence to ISO-certified production standards and strict quality audits.

Smart Pattern Placement & Italian PGM Systems

By utilizing the Italian PGM automatic cutting system, our raw material waste is reduced by up to 15% compared to traditional manual methods. This state-of-the-art system allows us to optimize fabric markers digitally, translating into substantial cost savings for our partners in Latvia. Additionally, digital pattern storage ensures that re-orders have zero variance in sizing and fit across different production batches.

High-Frequency Customization (OEM/ODM)

We specialize in rapid-turnaround sportswear prototyping. Whether you are launching a private label yoga line in Riga, outfitting an athletic league across Zemgale and Kurzeme, or producing high-performance cycling kits, our design house offers rapid mock-ups within 3 to 5 business days, accelerating your time-to-market.

For standard OEM/ODM production runs, our average lead time is 25 to 35 business days from design confirmation and sample sign-off. Express shipping to Latvia via air cargo takes roughly 5 to 7 days, whereas ocean freight to the port of Riga takes approximately 30 to 35 days.
Do your sportswear fabrics meet EU environmental and chemical regulations? +
Yes. All textile fibers, dyes, and printing inks used in our factories strictly comply with EU REACH requirements and carry OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certification. This guarantees that our sportswear is free from harmful levels of substances, making it safe for direct skin contact and fit for retail within the European Union.

We use localized European sizing charts as our production baseline. Additionally, we work directly with your tech packs or grading specifications, verifying each measurement with computerized digital templates to prevent errors before cutting and assembly.
