Pants: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $7.00 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $3.90 at volume, on a typical 45-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point, not a binding quote. Your spec and quantity set the final price.

What moves the price
For pants, the drivers are chamois type, compression level, leg gripper, fabric weight, seam construction, suspender material, insulation type, waterproof rating — the spec them differently and the same item lands at either end of the band.
Mid-range custom performance pants are priced mainly by fabric composition and weight, construction complexity, and decoration method; moisture-wicking, compression, thermal lining, and private-label trim add cost. Real supplier routes that fit this product are factory-direct OEM/ODM activewear makers with MOQ-based tiered quotes, plus wholesale distributors for lower-risk blank or lightly customized pants; the factory-direct route is typically the only realistic path at 5,000+ units. Published wholesale examples for performance pants/joggers and related compression bottoms show material-dependent pricing in the broad $5.60-$8.20 range at 500+ units and lower at higher volumes, with custom-label and premium fabric upgrades pushing the price upward
