Clothing that feels great on the tennis or padel court, but looks just as good off the court.\n\nI'm starting with premium performance T-shirts, with the ambition to gradually expand into a complete collection.\n\nRather than approaching you with fixed fabric specifications, I'm particularly interested in your expertise. I would love to hear which fabrics, fits and finishing techniques you would recommend to achieve a truly premium product.\n\nI'm also interested in learning more about your sampling process, minimum order quantities, production possibilities and approximate costs.\n\nAs FORTYFIVE is still in its early stages, finding the right partner is very important to me. I'm not simply looking for a manufacturer, but for a company that enjoys working closely with emerging brands and is interested in building a long-term relationship.\n\nI believe that good communication, mutual trust and attention to detail are the foundation of a successful partnership.\n\nYou can get a first impression of FORTYFIVE here:\n\nWebsite: https:\/\/www.fortyfiveclub.com \nInstagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/fortyfive.official\/\n\nI would love to hear whether you think FORTYFIVE could be a good fit for your company.\n\nThank you for your time. I look forward to hearing from you.\n\nKind regards,\n\nDennis Reekers\nFounder | FORTYFIVE\nTENNIS. PADEL.

            "content": "Hi,\n\nThank you for your quick response and your interest in FORTYFIVE. I really appreciate it.\n\nI'm happy to share some more information about where we currently stand.\n\n1. Designs\n\nI already have the initial design concept and original FORTYFIVE branding.\n\nThe first product will be a premium performance T-shirt with an athletic fit, a clean, minimal design and subtle black-on-black embossed branding.\n\nI have reference images available, although I would love to work with your team to further develop the technical specifications, particularly regarding fabrics, fit and finishing.\n\n2. Quantities\n\nI'm planning to start with one T-shirt design, potentially in different fabric options.\n\nAs FORTYFIVE is a new brand, I would prefer to begin with a relatively small initial production run and gradually increase quantities as the brand grows.\n\nCould you let me know your minimum order quantities for custom performance T-shirts?\n\n3. Desired delivery date\n\nI'm currently in the product development stage, so I don't have a fixed delivery deadline yet.\n\nMy priority is getting the quality right rather than rushing production.\n\nI would appreciate learning more about your typical sampling and production timelines.\n\n4. Target price\n\nAt this stage, I'm still exploring the best materials and manufacturing options.\n\nRather than setting a strict maximum price before understanding the possibilities, I would be interested in your estimated pricing for different quality levels and production quantities.\n\nMy goal is to develop a genuinely premium product at a commercially sustainable price.\n\nI'm very serious about building FORTYFIVE into a long-term brand, and I hope we can explore whether there's a good fit between us.\n\nThank you again for your time.\n\nKind regards,\n\nDennis Reekers\nFounder | FORTYFIVE\nwww.fortyfiveclub.com \n\n> Op 17 okt 2026, om 20:20 heeft Matilde Azevedo  het volgende geschreven:\n> \n> Hello Dennis,\n> \n> Thank you for reaching out and introducing FORTYFIVE.

Your focus on quality and building a long-term brand is commendable.\n\n1. **Designs:** Since you have reference images and are looking to develop the technical specifications further, we can certainly assist with that once we have a complete understanding of your project requirements. However, please note that we do not provide design services, so having a Tech Pack or a Physical Sample will be essential for moving forward.\n\n2. **Quantities:** For custom performance T-shirts, our minimum order quantity is 200 units per style. This ensures we can maintain the quality and efficiency of our production process.\n\n3. **Desired Delivery Date:** It's great to hear that quality is your priority. Our typical timeline for sampling is 6\u20138 weeks, and production takes approximately 10\u201314 weeks after order placement. Please keep in mind that factory closures in August and December may add additional time to the process.\n\n4. **Target Price:** Understanding your interest in exploring different quality levels, I would need a maximum target production price per T-shirt to evaluate the commercial viability. This helps us align with your budget expectations and provide the best options within your range.\n\nPlease let me know if you can provide a target price, and feel free to ask any other questions you might have.\n\nLooking forward to your response.\n\nBest regards,\n\nMatilde Azevedo  \nPortugal Textile | Portugal Shoes",
