Independent Perform Collection: Custom Corporate Apparel That Moves (EXP20PQ, EXP25PH, EXP30PZ, EXP10PANT + SS4600QZ)
Share
Short answer: if you want company apparel that looks sharp in a meeting and still feels like a hoodie, Independent Trading Co.'s Perform Collection is the line we point corporate buyers to. It is five styles in the same four-way stretch French terry: the EXP20PQ men's quarter-zip, the EXP15WPQ women's quarter-zip, the EXP25PH pullover hood, the EXP30PZ full-zip hood and the EXP10PANT pant. Add the classic SS4600QZ fleece quarter-zip when you want more colors or a lower price. All six share Black, Classic Navy, Pine and Smoke, so a whole team can match, and all six take a left-chest embroidered logo cleanly. We decorate them in our Yerington, Nevada shop and ship nationwide.

Perform or the SS4600QZ?
Pick Perform when the garment has to look polished. The stretch French terry has a flat, smooth face and a little give, so a quarter-zip holds its shape over a collared shirt and still moves when someone is setting up a booth or walking a job site. It reads closer to golf and athleisure than to a sweatshirt, which is why it suits sales teams, front-desk staff, financial offices and anyone meeting clients.
Pick the SS4600QZ when you need range or volume. It is traditional brushed fleece, it comes in far more colors than the four Perform core colors, and it costs less per piece. For a 150-person company event or a school staff order, it is usually the smarter buy.
A common split we quote: Perform quarter-zips for leadership and client-facing staff, SS4600QZ for everyone else, with the same embroidered logo on both.
Building a Matching Team Set
The reason this line works for companies is the shared color palette. Every Perform style comes in Black, Classic Navy, Pine and Smoke, so you can mix pieces without colors drifting from one style to the next:
- Office set: EXP20PQ for men and EXP15WPQ for women, same color, same logo.
- Full kit: EXP30PZ zip hood plus EXP10PANT pant for gyms, studios, coaching staffs and travel teams.
- Onboarding box: one quarter-zip or hood per new hire, plus a custom embroidered hat and a laser-engraved tumbler.
Black and Classic Navy carry the deepest stock; Pine and Smoke can sell through at some warehouses, so we confirm stock before your order goes in.
How We Decorate Perform Fabric
| Placement | What we recommend |
|---|---|
| Left chest | Embroidery, about 3–4 inches wide. The standard corporate look on every quarter-zip and zip hood. |
| Right chest or sleeve | A small second logo, department name or a website in embroidery or screen print. |
| Upper back | Screen print or DTF for event and trade-show pieces. |
| Pant | Small embroidered logo at the left hip, kept clear of the pockets. |
| Premium option | A sewn-on laser-engraved leather patch on the chest for client gifts. |
Stretch fabric needs a little more care than fleece. We keep logos to a moderate stitch count, use a stabilizer that holds the fabric flat while it stitches, and favor tone-on-tone or one or two thread colors for a clean, expensive look. Screen printing and DTF both work well on the cotton face; see screen printing vs embroidery vs DTF if you are deciding.

- Client and holiday gifts: a premium layer keeps your logo in rotation for years. See corporate gifts.
