From the lens of a startup apparel brand, we would not have seen such success without TEG.
I've been working with TEG for over a year now and have only incredible things to say. From the lens of a startup apparel brand, TEG and their personnel have a seamless process, immense knowledge, and unparalleled professionalism. Most notably, their garments & pieces crafted are the pinnacle of the industry, bar none. Their quality and attention to detail is unmatched, regardless of piece, fabric, or style. I'll undoubtedly continue to work with Jennifer and all the tenured industry professionals at TEG for many years to come. We would not have seen such success without TEG!

TEG is one of the best clothing manufacturers for startups and have really helped us grow both as a brand and a business.
We have been working with TEG over the past few years and have been really happy with our experience. It has been an absolute pleasure to work with the entire team there. They have proven to be one of the best clothing manufacturers for startups and have really helped us grow both as a brand and a business. The quality of their work is a given but we have been equally impressed by the fact that they have proven to be true business partners- and that has been invaluable.

The Evans Group is not just a partner; they’re a true ally in our design journey.
Working with The Evans Group has been an absolute pleasure. As new designers navigating the industry, their support has been invaluable. Their expertise and encouragement helped us get our feet wet with confidence, turning our ideas into reality. We truly couldn't have made it this far without their unwavering support and dedication. The Evans Group is not just a partner; they’re a true ally in our design journey. Eden has helped us tremendously navigating all of our various projects. Alicia is an AMAZING designer who turned our vision into reality, and we are so grateful to have worked with her. And of course Gery!

"We had the pleasure of working with TEG during the development process of our sweatsuit company. They went above and beyond every step of the way. We worked with Arturo Vera for sourcing, and he was extremely helpful, helping us select the best materials and twills, and recommending things we hadn't previously thought of. As we are not located in LA, he went to the different suppliers, Facetiming us and showing us different options, and organizing all of our sample requirements. We also worked with Gery Petrov for our pattern development. We were amazed by his knowledge and experience and he made us feel comfortable from the moment we first spoke to him. We went to LA to complete the fitting for our first sample and he was extremely attentive to all of the changes we wanted to make (although there were not many as he completely brought our vision to life). Even after our project was completed with TEG, Gery and Arturo have been extremely helpful with any follow up questions we have had, jumping on phone calls and quickly responding to emails. We absolutely loved working with TEG and we will definitely be working with them again in the future!"

"Our experience with TEG has been wonderful. Everyone has strong communication skills, are detailed, and have taken great care of us throughout our project. Eden was lovely and so responsive, providing all the information we needed to make our decision to work together. Alicia, our designer and who sourced our fabrics, and Gery our pattern maker are exceptional. They exceeded our expectations and I look forward to every meeting. We work together very well and couldn't be happier with our experience and samples. We constantly talk about how much we enjoy working with them and seeing our vision come to life. They are the best team! I would recommend them to everyone."

“I have had the honor of working with The Evans Group (Teg) out of Los Angele for a little over a year. I cannot express how wonderful the team has been. As an emerging designer, I appreciate all of the different options they have to get you up and running. The encouragement they provide along the way is unmatched. I love that the team has given me the ability to have confidence in my decisions and that they also encourage me to do things (once I am comfortable) on my own. I recently completed the "By your Side" mentorship program with Jennifer Evans. It was a dream to work with her. She is an industry expert with a wealth of knowledge! It was the best business decision I never knew I had to make! There are many reasons I would recommend Teg, but one of the most important is their attention to detail and quality of work. They hold their team to high standards which leads to quality work. When you choose Teg, you are not only choosing to have your work done by a team of experts, but you also have the backing of the best clothing manufacturers for startups in the industry. I cannot wait to continue to build out my journey with them. THANK YOU”

"I have consulted with owner, Jennifer Evans, on several occasions to get help with my clothing brand. I am a new designer looking for guidance in all areas. The Evans Group in downtown la is a fantastic resource for assistance on everything from design concept to production ready. She has a top-notch staff with countless connections and resources, making them one of the best clothing manufacturers for startups. Jennifer is extremely intelligent, personable, and knowledgeable of all aspects of this industry. She is very generous with her time with new designers like me before a contract is ever signed. I recommend Jennifer and this company very highly."

“I am a co-founder of retail consulting company, rāv collective, and worked with Teg on behalf of a client of ours. With over 15 years in the industry, the Teg team was one of the strongest development and production teams we've worked with - they are a dream! The project consisted of development and production of a small capsule. The Evans Group, as a top-notch clothing manufacturer, was so communicative, detailed, and thorough! Another quality that I was impressed by was how transparent they were throughout the process. Their customer service was some of the best we've experienced - they showcased the true meaning of partnership. The quality and craftsmanship of their work was also great. They truly know and love what they do. I would highly recommend Teg to any small business. We hope to work with them again in the future!”

“I found Teg after several failed attempts at development and production. Because of my experiences in the fashion world, I was very cautious. The Evans Group, as a trusted clothing manufacturer, has taken the time to build trust with me, and even though I chose to start with only two garments, I have felt important and valued by all the team members I've worked with so far. I received my first two garment samples and was blown away by the quality of the construction and fit. I don't take such compliments lightly as a seamstress myself! I have since added services and look forward to further building the collection. Thank you, Jennifer, Alicia, and Walt! Working with you all has been a pleasure, and I'm excited to continue what we've started. I can advise anyone getting started in this business that patience is one of the most valuable assets. It takes time if the quality is important to you. I highly recommend Teg to any serious designer or brand.”

“The TEG team is absolutely wonderful. I’m so grateful I found a factory who provides such a hands on and knowledgeable service. The pattern makers are extremely talented and everyone at TEG is patient and responsive. I feel so confident and relaxed knowing I’m working with TEG. There are a lot of difficult and problematic factories out there and I can confidently say you’re in great hands with TEG. They’re ethical, easy to work with and provide exactly what I need plus more. They've executed my vision beautifully and I fully trust TEG to help develop and produce my collections. I'm truly so grateful to work with TEG!!”

"I am very glad to have found The Evans Group and to have been able to work with them on my projects! From the get-go they were very professional trendsetters, always responding to my emails in a timely manner and making sure all my questions/concerns were answered. Alex did a fantastic job in making sure my production run went smoothly. I felt very comfortable working with Gery on my pattern changes and he did a great job in making sure the garment came out how I wanted. Also want to give thanks to Noah for consistently being on top of all correspondence and making sure everything was shipped out and received properly. I will definitely talk positively about my experience working with TEG, known for their expertise in custom costumes, and would love to work with them again!"

"I've worked in the apparel industry for 12 years. This group is one of the most talented I've worked with. They work hard to bring your design vision or creatives to life. The patternmaker, Gery, is probably the best I've ever worked with. His background in men's tailoring, as well as design, means that his patternmaking skills are those of a true artist in a creative director (and there really is an art to achieving beautiful fit in a garment). The sewing team also goes above and beyond to meet our deadlines, and the garments are always sewn perfectly. I wouldn't work with anyone else but Teg, known for their expertise in custom costumes, at this point."

From design consult, to sourcing, to pattern-making and sample sewing, they have led me through every step with knowledge, professionalism, and a true sense of passion for our industry.
