ABOUT US
WHO WE ARE
KBS Sportswear & Apparel is a family-owned business built on quality, design, and a deep love for sport. As athletes ourselves, we understand what great apparel feels like and that drives everything we do. We're committed to delivering innovative, high-quality gear that supports both your team and brand. Known for our unique designs, cultural awareness, and reliable service, we’ve earned a reputation for apparel that performs just as well as it looks.
OUR MISSION
Our mission is clear: to create high-quality, affordable apparel that gives athletes the confidence to perform at their best. We stand strong in our commitment to Culture, Community and Connection, always showing up for our people and communities. Everything we design is made to stand out, combining performance, bold design, and cultural pride. This is who we are, our apparel that’s always #madewithculture.
OUR APPROACH
On field apparel represents more than just the team wearing them – and to each their own reasons and motivation. For us at KBS, on field uniforms represents a fresh start, new beginnings, new journeys.
The phrase “Look good, feel good, play good” inspires our creative process and forms a core commitment we make to each client.
Off-Shore Production
At KBS Sportswear, we pride ourselves on delivering high-quality custom apparel through a streamlined and reliable production process. All of our apparel is designed in Australia and New Zealand, and manufactured through our long-standing partnerships with trusted factories in China. This collaboration ensures we can provide a full-service solution for all on-field and off-field garments, including sublimated and cut-and-sew products.
Our production capabilities allow us to produce up to 20,000 garments per week, supported by multiple production lines and a dedicated team of over 150 skilled staff.
Our standard production timeframe is 5–7 weeks from the date of payment and final artwork approval.
Australian Production
We’re proud to now offer locally made production through our new and improved manufacturing facility right here on the Gold Coast just 20 minutes from our head office. This has been a massive game-changer for us at KBS, allowing us to deliver faster turnaround times for urgent orders and support teams and clubs across both Australia and New Zealand with last-minute requests. Being able to manufacture in our own backyard gives our clients peace of mind, knowing we have full control over quality and timelines. Local production turnaround ranges from just 1–3 weeks, making it the perfect solution for those tight deadlines when time really matters.
