What is manufacturing on demand?
Superior to print on demand - manufacturing on demand means we have the resources to take your product vision to the next level with all-over print areas, custom tags, thread colors, and even unique alterations to product styles to make them truly stand out. We print, cut, sew, and garment wash each order as they are placed.
The SKYOU order process:
All you have to do is learn the digital 3D design tool and publish your designs. We take care of the rest. This is a typical order’s process:
- Design your product with SKYOU app
- Publish it to your Shopify store
- Your customer purchases the product
- The SKYOU app receives purchase order and customer info and begins manufacturing
- The SKYOU team manufactures the order for you within 5-7 business days of
purchase, then ships to your end customers in the USA in 3-5 business days or 10-30 business days for international orders. (We correct & cover any carriers’ shipping errors. Our goal is to make
shipping/receiving stress free).
- We automatically mark the order as fulfilled in your shop and transmit a tracking number back to Shopify
You decide profit!
You set your products’ prices. We only charge you a fair base price to cover manufacturing costs for each individual product. So, you can set the price at any number at or above the base price to create a custom profit margin. Keep your customer’s (wallets) in mind when you do this, be fair!
EXAMPLE: You want to sell custom sweatshirts. You set your price for your customers at $35.00 because our price is $21.00. Subtract our price from yours and you get a profit of $14.00.

About us
We’ve built out a retail quality on-demand manufacturing platform that allows for super high quality one offs, and products previously only available with large MOQ's (all over print cotton garments, shoes, backpacks, lunchboxes, etc.). Our largest differentiator is our quality, we actually manufacture each product we make from scratch -- printing onto white rolls of fabric, and then cutting and sewing into final form. Since we're making from scratch, you can print all over any of our products, and our patent pending tech also allows for graphics to match over seams with +/- 1mm accuracy.
Our CEO/founder started Timbuk2, the original mass customization bag company. We've also worked with all the big shoe manufacturers setting up and running their custom shoe programs (Nike, Reebok, Puma, Adidas, etc.). Our team also worked at the largest print on-demand manufacturers (Zazzle and Cafepress). Suffice to say we have lots of experience in this industry helping large multinational brands, on-demand leaders, and as innovators in the space. SKYOU is a combination of all that knowledge, built into an easy to use platform that ships big brand quality direct to consumer.
SKYOU reviews
The design tool is a bit of a learning curve but I'm okay with that. My issue is the long delays in customer service responses. It can take hours or even next day. If you have an urgent issue. Patience is key. There also seems to be confusion (a bit) because of it. There are also a few bugs, for some reason I can't see my order screen which makes it difficult to follow what is happening. I have yet to try the shirts or other items as we need to get the hoodies going first. Hopefully the order screen will be fixed soon so I can monitor my orders. Otherwise, they are very good folks and I really do love the design capabilities! It's a creative person's dream.
I absolutely LOVE this app, so user friendly! Great products, great service! Highly recommended :)
Very good support... I had a request and they anwserd really quick and detailed.
The app I find very user friendly. Has great designing capabilities. I ordered 2 samples on May 24 and received both items on June 12. Received 13 business days later which is great. Another bonus is that the items come with no other signs of branding, the tag has no branding just care instructions, size etc. I was able to send a question during the start up and received a timely response. This app is really good for printing patterns. I was hesitant at first because there were not very many reviews but I am glad I gave this app a go and will continue to use it.
Top quality products, top quality prints, top notch support and customer care, way more possibilities on designing and printing compared to other PODs.
The SKYOU app allowed us to simplify our shipping costs for worldwide shipping. As a partner, they allow provide a total service from design help to production and fulfilment. The integration between our store and the their design tool is simple and easy to use.
The generator to put your designs on your products is extremly lagging and way too time consuming, if I add up the amount of time I would spend waiting because of how slow it is, I would have wasted at least 1 hr everyday doing nothing.
I cannot access the app anymore as it's telling me to create an account even though I have already.
Will be removing this.
Dont bother
Like this app a lot. The products do come from China so it does take some time to get to your customers.
I'm crazy about Skyou! I just got my first sample item from them. The hoodie I designed is beautiful, it's 100% cotton, and made to last. Every seam is double-stitched and finished, and the fabric is soft and has a nice hand. Colors are vibrant and printing is sharp. They have a 3D designers tool that's was a bit of a learning curve, even for someone who's been working in Adobe CC for 25 years. It's a little pokey in my office, mainly I think because my internet speeds aren't the highest. It does, for all that, give you an amazing amount of control. I gave my artwork a lot of leeway for mis-matching along the seams, but I really didn't have to, the resulting printed item was dead on. A fabulous find, all around, a POD printer that with control and accuracy, and prints on cotton to boot. I'll be filling my store with Skyou.
SKYOU - I wish I had found you sooner! This is tool is filled with awesomeness. Once I figured out how everything worked and got familiar with it (which only took a couple of hours), I was able to do some really nice things in terms of design and creativity. I had been frustrated with the limitations of so many somewhat similar providers - though I know that I do SKYOU a disservice by saying "similar providers". They're not similar providers. There is no one even close!
The 3D model which shows what you're working on as if it's on a human and working in real-time while you make changes to the design is pure genius.
It's so powerful and so much that you can do with it that you have to be careful what you're doing, but once you know how it works - I promise you will love it if you like to create really nice stuff that you design and put into your shop quickly and efficiently. Great job people at SKYOU! I hope you get bought for a bajillion dollars!
