This blog explains that while DRIBBLE maintains ready stock for select products listed on its website, it also manufactures a wider range of sportswear and cottonwear items on demand. Due to limited stocking capacity, some products are produced only through planned orders with minimum quantities and adequate lead time. Buyers are encouraged to share their design, quantity, budget, and delivery requirements so the team can assess feasibility. To ensure smooth production and timely fulfillment, DRIBBLE recommends placing custom or large orders at least one to two months in advance and contacting the team directly for personalized support.
