Production Partner
Your Cargo Shorts Production Partner
A direct manufacturer for fashion, workwear, and outdoor brands that need durable, branded cargo shorts - not a reseller.
GenXport is a cargo shorts manufacturer serving US and international brands, retailers, workwear suppliers, and importers. You send the design, tech pack, or sample; we deliver finished, labelled shorts ready to sell.
We build custom cargo shorts in-house, from pattern and cutting through sewing, hardware, and finishing, with quality checks before every shipment. That keeps pockets, hardware, and sizing consistent across the run.
One accountable team handles sampling, production planning, and QC, so your specs and timelines stay clear. We support startups and established brands with low MOQ production and bulk capacity.

Pockets & Hardware
Cargo pockets are the defining feature, so we build them to your exact layout and hardware.
- Flap, bellow, slash, and zip cargo pockets in your chosen count and placement
- Hardware options: buttons, snaps, rivets, metal zips, and D-rings
- Belt loops, integrated belts, or drawcord waistbands
- Knee-length and above-knee inseams, confirmed at sampling
Send a tech pack or a sample and we replicate or improve the pocket and hardware construction.
MOQ, Pricing & Incoterms
Low minimums for new brands, with clear pricing and shipping terms as you scale.
GenXport is a low-MOQ manufacturer, so you can launch a cargo shorts line without a large first run. We quote each project on fabric, hardware, branding, and quantity, so the price is real.
A typical first run starts around 50 to 100 pieces per style, and pricing gets more efficient with volume. We support FOB, CIF, and DDP shipping with export documentation for clear landed cost.
See typical minimums in our MOQ and pricing guide, or request a quote for your shorts.
Tech Pack, Sampling & Lead Times
Plan around clear timelines, from first sample to bulk shipment.
You can send a tech pack, a sketch, or a sample short, and we develop the style or replicate it. We can also build the tech pack with you through our digital pattern and sample service.
Sampling usually takes about 2 to 3 weeks, and bulk production about 4 to 6 weeks after sample approval, depending on hardware and quantity. Our factory runs about 2,500 pieces per day, scalable to 15,000.
