A tech pack does not need to be elaborate to be useful. It should help the supplier understand the intended shape, measurements, construction, material choices, branding, and packaging—and show which details still need confirmation.
Start with drawings, views, and measurements
Include front, back, side, inside, and detail views where they help explain the bag. Mark width, height, depth, handle drop, strap range, pocket placement, and opening dimensions as relevant to the design.
State how each measurement is taken and identify any areas where a tolerance or fit check matters. If the bag is designed around a specific item—such as a laptop, racket, bottle, or garment—include that item’s dimensions.
Describe materials and construction
List the outer fabric or material, lining, foam or reinforcement if specified, zipper, webbing, hardware, labels, and decorative trims. Add color references and clarify whether they are exact requirements or starting points.
Call out seams, compartments, closures, and attachment points that are important but hard to infer from images. A racket bag reference can help illustrate how the intended sports equipment and accessory organization should be described.
Add branding, packaging, and acceptance notes
Attach the logo artwork and specify placement, size, colors, and the desired branding method if known. Include labels, hangtags, dust bags, boxes, or other packaging details that matter to the project.
If you have inspection criteria, note how to verify them. Keep functional targets separate from visual preferences so the supplier can ask for the right confirmation or evidence.
If you do not have a full tech pack yet
Send a product reference, rough sketch, clear photos, intended use, target market, approximate dimensions, estimated quantity, and the changes you want. Mark unknowns as “to be discussed” rather than leaving the supplier to assume.
Ask the supplier which additional information is needed before sampling or final pricing. This keeps the brief moving while the specification is still being developed.
Buyer questions
What file format should my artwork use?
Ask the supplier which formats its team can use for the requested decoration. Also confirm size, color references, placement, and whether a production-ready file is needed.
Can I start without technical drawings?
Yes. Photos, a sample, a sketch, a use case, and a list of desired changes can start the discussion. A detailed specification can be refined afterward.
Need help applying this guide to a product?
Send the product reference, intended use, target market, and the details you want to confirm.
