How to Source Custom Sunglasses from China

Sourcing custom sunglasses from China goes in six steps: pick models, send logo and quantities, approve a digital proof, approve a physical sample, run bulk production with inspection, and ship.

1. Pick models and quantities

Start from existing models — custom molds take longer and cost more. Send model numbers, the color split per model and your target quantity.

2. Logo and packaging

Send vector artwork (AI, PDF or SVG). Choose the logo method: temple laser, pad print, metal plate or lens logo. Decide case, pouch, cloth and box.

3. Proof and sample

You receive a digital proof first; after approval a physical sample is made. Check frame color, logo position and size, lens tint and packaging on the sample.

4. MOQ, lead time and payment

Ask for the minimum per model and per color, the sample time, and the bulk lead time for your quantity. Lead time in China depends on lens and logo method and on season — plan around peak months before summer.

5. Quality control

Agree on an inspection standard (for example AQL 2.5 for major defects), and ask for the test report for UV, polarization or safety claims on your packaging.

6. Shipping and compliance

Agree the Incoterm (EXW, FOB or CIF). Check the labelling rules of your market — for example the FDA impact-resistance rule in the US and CE / EN ISO 12312-1 in the EU.
