That gives us the unique ability to not only design and create cutting edge products, but also revisit older products we have made for re-production. Think of "Monster Garage." That's us. So yes, we can re-produce whatever we made, regardless of how much time has gone by.
However, doing small replacement orders is rarely profitable. If everyone placed nothing but small orders of a couple pieces each, we would be dead as a doorknob and have to close shop. So you need to help us by placing orders of 6 pieces or more, or by paying higher prices as quantities go down. Obviously one piece is going to be the most expensive. The reason is that setting up each job is expensive. It takes the same amount of time to set-up to produce one unit as it does to make fifty. We earn our living by running larger orders.
The next issue, is that each of our products is made here in the USA. While we fight to keep our prices affordable, the manufacturing costs are fifty times higher here in California than in other parts of the world where our competitors make theirs. But I like manufacturing here at home. It gives me greater control over the quality of our products and I can make design changes on the fly. And finally, it bothers me that America continues to outsource jobs overseas. I believe that manufacturing here is simply, the right thing to do. It's not about increasing shareholder profits by sending American jobs overseas. It's about keeping American jobs at home, and understanding we need to take care of each other.
Thanks so much for your question. I will come on again, and give you tips on what we will need from you to make those Replacement Uniforms.

Jonathan,
I was asked if you can get other color pants besides what you have on the site, is that possible?
