For full disclosure have\nbeen in talks with another supplier in China that may not be able to\nproduce what we're looking for. So, on my own, I'm was reaching out just to\nsee if it's even possible, and get a feel for what things might cost if we\nbrought production to Portugal, which would be my personal preference.\n\nIt sounds like we may not be able to meet your minimums. Were hoping to\nsplit the 1,000 units of each style into 4 colorways for our first run. If\nthis is not possible, let me know. I have physical samples I could send.\n\nRegarding the timeline, we are not focused on speed, we prioritize getting\nit right more than anything. That being said, launching them in early fall\nor sooner would be ideal.\n\nOur target price largely depends on the production cost per unit. But we\nthink the price will fall somewhere between $35 and $40 USD.\n\nObrigado!\nJake\n\n\n\n\n\nOn Wed, Mar 25, 2026 at 11:51\u202fAM Matilde Azevedo \nwrote:\n\n> Hello,\n>\n> Thank you for contacting us.

So our focus with you is on\nbuilding the right long-term partnership for run two and everything that\nfollows. That's the starting point for all of the questions below.\n\n*On process and timing*\n\nWe'd love to understand the typical flow from first sample to production,\nand roughly how long each stage tends to take. Being transparent: our\ncurrent run has dragged on much longer than we expected, and realistic,\nwell-managed timelines are something we're now paying very close attention\nto as we plan ahead.\n\n*On an in-person working session*\n\nIf we flew out with our prototypes and spent a week on the ground, would\nsomeone be available to work with us specifically during that time? In your\nexperience, is a week enough to dial in fit, construction, and details to\nthe point of being production-ready?\n\n*On factory capacity*\n\nHow full are the factories at the moment? Hypothetically, if we approved\nsomething today, what's a realistic timeline for going into production on a\nrun of 12,000\u201315,000 pieces?\n\n*On quality references*\n\nAre there any brands you currently manufacture for that we could order\npieces from, just to get a tactile sense of the quality coming out of your\nfactories? Fully understand if that isn't shareable \u2014 but if it is, it\nwould be really helpful.\n\n*On cost (very rough)*\n\nI know you can't quote anything without going through the sampling process\n\u2014 which is totally understandable and fair. As a directional reference\nonly, would you be able to share roughly what a high-quality brand might\npay to produce 1,000 pieces of a boxer brief with you? Only coming back to\nthis because it would help us start building out a comp on our end as we\nplan ahead.\n\nLet me know if any of these need more context from me. Any insight at this\nstage is genuinely valuable \u2014 thank you!\n\nBest,\nJake\n\nOn Tue, Jun 16, 2026 at 10:45\u202fAM Matilde Azevedo \nwrote:\n\n> Thank you, Jake.

I appreciate your transparency, and I\u2019m glad to assist you as you explore production options in Portugal.\n\nRegarding your questions:\n\n1. **On process and timing:** The typical flow from the first sample to production generally includes the following stages:\n   - **Sample Development:** 6-8 weeks for initial samples.\n   - **Production Approval:** Once the samples are approved, production typically takes 10-14 weeks.\n   - Overall, you should expect a total cycle of about 5 months from sample approval to finished goods, accounting for any holidays.\n\n2. **On an in-person working session:** While I cannot arrange meetings or visits at this stage, I can assure you that our technical team is very experienced in working closely with clients. A week can be sufficient to dial in fit and construction details, but it would depend on the complexity of the designs and the number of adjustments needed.\n\n3. **On factory capacity:** Currently, our factories are operating at capacity, but we can accommodate new orders. If you approved a project today, a realistic timeline for going into production on a run of 12,000\u201315,000 pieces would still align with the standard cycle of approximately 5 months.\n\n4. **On quality references:** While I cannot disclose specific brands we manufacture for, I can assure you that we uphold high standards of quality. If you have specific quality benchmarks in mind, I can guide you on how to achieve those standards.\n\n5. **On cost (very rough):** I understand the need for directional pricing.

First 4 colors was fine, and then it was not \npossible. You mentioned that once I agreed to the MOQ, then we'd move to the \nstage of us shipping our samples for the tech team to evaluate.\n\nCan you provide with clarity what the actual process is here?\n\nThanks,\nJake\n\n$$SYSTEM NOTE: The user provided attached files (image001_6a86d8560bf9f.png, image002_6a86d85611f35.jpg, image003_6a86d85611f8a.png, image004_6a86d85611fc8.jpg, image005_6a86d8561200b.jpg).
