Timing decides whether leggings sell at full price or at a discount in Lyon. Four seasons; peaks include the winter and summer sales and Christmas. For leggings specifically, leggings sell all year; fleece-lined styles peak for autumn-winter orders placed May–August. Our lead time is 25–35 days; 20 days on repeat colours, plus sea transit of about 20–30 days, so we advise confirming orders early enough to land the goods before the peak rather than during it.

Typical buyers of leggings in Lyon include women's apparel wholesalers, retail chains and supermarkets, ethnic and fusion-wear boutiques and private-label fashion brands. In Lyon, they usually order 1,500–3,000 pieces per container colour mix; 500 pieces per colour for stock jersey and reorder the styles that sell through, so we keep fabric, size ratios and labels on file for repeat shipments.

For Lyon we suggest planning leggings in two drops, one in lighter fabrics and one in heavier ones, so stock matches the weather rather than sitting unsold.

Sizes: Free size (fits S–L), XL–3XL, and numeric sizing 26–40 inches; plus-size 4XL–6XL on request. Colours: 50+ solid colours, melange and prints; dyed to Pantone in bulk.

You are not limited to stock designs. We make leggings in bulk in the colour you choose, in the sizes and size ratio your customers wear, and in the design you supply for the Lyon market. A reference garment, a tech pack, a sketch or even a photograph is enough to start.

How it works: send a Pantone code or fabric swatch for colour and we return a lab-dip; send your size chart and the ratio you want in each carton; send artwork, print, embroidery or label files for the design. We make a sample for approval and then produce the bulk to that approved sample, so the order you receive matches the one you signed off.

Because colours are the main variable, we recommend a stock palette of 20–30 colours with a few seasonal additions, so you can reorder the best sellers in smaller lots with a short lead time.

Leggings are among the highest-volume garments we ship, bought by wholesalers in Africa and the Gulf and by retailers in Europe and North America. Their economics depend on consistent stretch, colour and fit across thousands of pieces, which is why we source from units that knit and dye their own jersey.
