Fabric swatches, matched by AI and shipped to your door
Stop guessing from screen colors. SwatchFree collects actual mill color cards for the fabrics you shortlist and ships them worldwide. AI finds the match; you confirm it by touch.
The actual cloth, not a photo
Every Swatch Box contains real mill color cards sourced directly from the supplier. You see true color, feel the hand, and check the exact GSM and weave before production.
Mill color cards
Physical cards cut from the same roll as bulk production, labeled with composition, exact GSM, width and mill origin.
Cut samples 1–10 m
Order larger pieces for wash tests, drape checks and prototype sewing. A free color card is included when available.
Worldwide shipping
Express shipping to your studio or factory is included in the Swatch Box fee. No surprise logistics bills.

Fabric swatch questions
Who is SwatchFree best for?
Indie brands and apparel designers who need real mill color cards before bulk, want a transparent Swatch Box fee with worldwide shipping included ($69 for up to 5 swatches or $119 for up to 10 swatches), and are shortlisting up to 10 fabrics per box.
When is SwatchFree not the right fit?
