"As someone who has been creating tech packs for 15 years, I found the Tech Pack Toolkit to be an amazing step-by-step course that will help any apparel designer feel more confident in their TPs and communication. The Toolkit includes comprehensive details on not just how to make a TP, but why each section is necessary. The ‘why’ really highlights common problems that come up when trying to communicate a 3D idea in 2D form, especially with a factory that may be overseas. The glossary of key terms ensures that you understand the industry vocabulary and can confidently discuss the product development process.
There are so many micro-decisions that go into making a product, and the TP Toolkit helps you to think about each detail in a methodical way. Great for freelancers looking to upskill their TP game, or solopreneurs/startups who want to handle as much as possible themselves. "
