Your concept for a premium heavyweight embroidered T-shirt sounds exciting.\n\nTo provide you with accurate information and proceed with your project, I need to gather a few more details:\n\n1. **Tech Pack or Physical Sample**: Do you have a Tech Pack or a Physical Sample that you can send us? This will help us understand your design specifications better.\n\n2. **Quantities**: Could you please confirm the total quantity you intend to produce per style? Our minimum order quantity for T-shirts is strictly 200 units per style.\n\n3. **Target Price**: What is your target production price per style? This will help us align with your budget expectations.\n\nRegarding your questions about pricing, sample costs, and lead times, I must clarify that accurate pricing can only be provided after our technical team analyzes your Tech Pack or Physical Sample and confirms the final quantities. The cost of a sample depends entirely on the complexity of each specific design.\n\nOnce I have these details, I can better assess your project and guide you on the next steps. Thank you for considering Portugal Textile for your manufacturing needs.\n\nLooking forward to your response.\n\nBest regards.",

            "content": "Hi Matilde,\n\nThank you for the response. I am very interested in moving forward with\nPortugal Textile for III.\n\nI do not currently have a finalized Tech Pack or physical sample, but I am\npreparing a Tech Pack now with the garment measurements, embroidery\ndimensions and placement, color references, labels, and other\nspecifications.\n\nBefore I finalize it, I wanted to clarify a few things.\n\nI saw that Portugal Textile offers a 280 GSM heavyweight oversized T-shirt.\nIf possible, I would prefer to begin with your existing premium oversized\nsilhouette and customize it for III rather than develop an entirely new\nT-shirt pattern from scratch, assuming the fit and quality are appropriate.\n\nThe collection currently consists of:\n\n*PLATO* \u2014 washed charcoal\n*ARISTOTLE* \u2014 deep olive\n*SOCRATES* \u2014 stone\n\nAll three would use the same base garment construction and fabric. The\ndifferences would primarily be garment color, chest embroidery, and a small\nembroidered text detail on the sleeve.\n\nRegarding the 200-piece MOQ, could you please clarify whether each of these\nwould be considered a separate \u201cstyle\u201d?\n\nFor example, would producing Plato, Aristotle, and Socrates require *200\nunits of each design (600 total)*, or could the 200-piece order be divided\namong the three versions because they share the same garment construction?\n\nI would also like to complete and approve a sample before committing to the\nfull production order.\n\nFor production pricing, my initial target is approximately *\u20ac18\u2013\u20ac22 per\nunit*, depending on the final fabric, garment wash\/dye, embroidery, labels,\nand finishing. Quality is more important to me than reaching the lowest\npossible price, so I\u2019m open to your technical team\u2019s recommendation if that\nrange is not realistic for the specifications.\n\nMy target garment is:\n\n   - Approximately 280\u2013300 GSM\n   - 100% premium cotton\n   - Relaxed \/ slightly oversized fit\n   - Structured silhouette\n   - Substantial ribbed collar\n   - Garment-dyed or garment-washed finish\n   - Small premium embroidered philosopher name on the chest\n   - Small embroidered phrase near the sleeve hem\n   - Custom III neck label and care label\n\nIf your 280 GSM oversized T-shirt would be a good starting point for this\nproduct, please let me know and I can build my Tech Pack around that\nsilhouette.\n\nI can also send the visual mockups of the collection now if that would be\nuseful to your technical team.\n\nThank you,\nMason\nIII\n\nOn Tue, Aug 11, 2026 at 10:44\u202fAM Matilde Azevedo \nwrote:\n\n> Hello Mason,\n>\n> Thank you for reaching out and sharing details about your brand *III* and\n> your vision for the first collection.

            "content": "Hello Mason,\n\nThank you for the detailed information about your collection. It's great to hear that you're considering using our existing 280 GSM oversized T-shirt as a base for your designs.\n\nRegarding your question about the MOQ, each design (Plato, Aristotle, Socrates) would indeed be considered a separate style. Therefore, you would need to produce a minimum of 200 units per style, totaling 600 units for all three designs.\n\nAs for your target price range of \u20ac18\u2013\u20ac22 per unit, I appreciate your focus on quality. Our technical team will review your specifications and provide recommendations to align with your budget and quality expectations.\n\nSince you are preparing your Tech Pack, please feel free to send the visual mockups of the collection. This will be useful for our technical team to understand your vision better.\n\nOnce you have finalized your Tech Pack, we can proceed with the next steps, including sample development. Please let me know if you have any other questions or need further clarification.\n\nLooking forward to your Tech Pack and mockups.\n\nBest regards.",
