Vantage Apparel Launches New Website With Decorated Order Technology

Vantage Apparel, Avenel, N.J., announced the launch of its all-new, redesigned vantageapparel.com, which offers enhanced features for customers, including a new design tool that lets distributors add decorated apparel orders to their shopping cart.

With assistance from a third party research agency, Vantage underwent many months of gathering feedback from customer focus groups, referencing best-in-class design, usability and workflow practices from some of the top apparel retailers in the world.

“It was extremely important to reimagine the experience of ordering apparel in the promo industry," said Rob Watson, chief experience officer for Vantage. “Not only was it paramount to enhance the look and feel of the site, but it also needed to have superior back-office tools for distributor partners to track orders, access their invoices, and also create a reorder with one click.”

Other features of the new VantageApparel.com include:

All New Redesign

The new, modern design takes impeccable use of its fresh look to highlight new, enlarged product images.  No more clicking through small thumbnails on the product page for more images—all product image views and colorways are always shown. The top navigation menu is expertly organized so you’ll find all the great features and services Vantage offers, and may even discover new ways to shop.

New Design Tool

This new feature allows distributors to upload artwork and see it visualized on the garment in real-time. The new Design Tool uses Vantage’s proprietary design technology to showcase all logo placement areas for each garment, includes live inventory and even calculates the number of stitches in seconds—giving you a final decorated garment price before adding the finished design to your shopping cart.

Inspiration Gallery

This is a great destination to rev up your creativity to customers. The Inspiration Gallery showcases great decoration ideas across all decoration methods. Make sure you check it out before your next project.

Mini-Catalog Tool

Create a curated collection for your customer and quickly send a mini-digital catalog for them to review. Each mini-catalog is saved for you to come back to, make edits or resend to other customers.
