A 150-piece yoga MOQ is colourway math

Brand-Friendly MOQ — standard 150 pcs / style / colour · selected library trial from 100 · fabric MCQ separate.

When factories say yoga wear Standard MOQ 150 pcs per style / colour, buyers hear “small order.” Commercially it means colourway math: every extra colour multiplies inventory, cash and QC load.

Per colour vs per style

Clarify on the quote: is 150 the minimum per colourway, or total per style across colours? For private label yoga, per colour is common. Plan neutrals first; add fashion colours after sell-through.

How fabric choice affects MOQ economics

Custom dye lots can exceed garment MOQ. Start on proven nylon or polyester bases — see yoga fabric guide — then open custom colourways once the style wins.

First-order playbook

  1. 1–2 styles × 2–3 colours
  2. Library or light customization
  3. Agree sample calendar and AQL before PO
  4. Expand colours after 4–8 weeks of sell-through

FAQ

Is MOQ per style or per colour?

Ask explicitly. Many activewear programs quote per colour per style — 8 colours means 8× MOQ.

Can I mix sizes inside MOQ?

Usually yes within a colourway; confirm ratio rules with the factory.

Does custom fabric raise MOQ?

Often yes — dye lots and knit minimums can exceed garment MOQ.

How should a first order look?

Fewer colours, proven bases, clear size curve — expand after sell-through.
