Here are the answers to your questions:\n\nQuantities: At this stage, we would like to order 1 sample of each of the three designs we've shared (the prototypes in their original two-tone colorways) \u2014 this is for sample evaluation only, not a bulk order yet. Once we select the winning design based on quality and fit, we plan to proceed with an initial production order of 100 units. After that, our plan is to add 2-3 additional color variations to that same style before considering a second model \u2014 so we're looking for a partner who can support this gradual, repeat-order approach.Desired Delivery Date: 6-8 weeks for the samples works for us. Please let us know once you have a more specific timeline once the Tech Pack is reviewed.Target Price: We'd prefer to see your quotation based on the attached specification first, so we can evaluate real production costs. As a general guide, our planned retail price point is \u20ac100-120, so the quoted production cost should support a healthy margin at that range.\n\n\nCould you share your full neoprene color range (a catalog, swatch chart, or photos)?Regarding foam type: as noted in the attached spec, we require 100% CR (chloroprene rubber) neoprene, not SBR. Could you confirm this is available, ideally before we proceed to sampling?\n\nThank you again, looking forward to your reply.\n\nBest regards,\nMishelSent from my iPhoneOn 11.

A few points to confirm:\n\n1. Samples: We would like to order one sample of each of the three designs we shared (not one sample overall)we attached again 3 photos , so we can compare them side by side and decide which design to move forward with for the initial production order.\n\n2. Sampling process: We understand your standard policy is one sample per style before the bulk order. However, since this would be a brand-new custom design, would it be possible to have at least one round of revision on the selected design before committing to the 100-unit production order? This is a fairly standard step for new custom designs, since first samples often need small adjustments (handle fit, stitching, etc.), and we'd like to avoid finding issues only after a full production run.\n\n3. Target price: Based on our overall business planning, a production cost in the range of \u20ac30-38\u20ac per unit would allow us to move forward comfortably. If your quotation comes in above this range, please still share it \u2014 it may be justified by quality \u2014 but this is our general guide for now.\n\n$$SYSTEM NOTE: The user provided attached files (image0_6aa3d15e00084.jpeg, image2_6aa3d15e001a1.jpeg, image3_6aa3d15e0029d.jpeg).
