Pattern Blocks

Start from a proven fit, not a blank page

Every garment begins from one of our proven base blocks, tested and refined on real people to achieve an accurate, consistent fit. Whether you’re a seasoned label or launching your first range, we help you move from concept to production faster and smarter.

  • 200+ pre-approved blocks across womenswear, menswear, kids, underwear, swim and active
  • Refined through a minimum of three fit rounds by our Garment Technologists, Pattern Makers and Designers
  • Fewer sampling rounds, less fabric waste and shorter development time

    Each block comes with a digital pattern file (DXF or Adobe Illustrator, depending on the block), plus its tech pack and CAD. Each block page lists exactly what’s included.

    Send it straight to your factory, or add a CLO3D render, a sample or made-to-measure alterations. We can also develop it further with you.
