I\u2019m a college athlete, and the brand was inspired by my own\ndifficulty finding sports bras that provide enough support while still\nlooking cute.\n\nI found your company through the CFDA Production Directory and would love\nto learn more about working with you. I\u2019ve attached my tech packs and\npatterns for four initial styles: a sports bra, shorts, a fitted tank, and\na mock-neck sweatshirt.\n\nI\u2019m looking to begin with fabric sourcing and sampling, with the goal of\nmoving into production once the fit and materials are approved. I\u2019m\nconsidering approximately 150 units per style in black for the first run,\ndepending on pricing and minimums.\n\nFor the bra, shorts, and tank, I\u2019m interested in performance nylon\/spandex\nblends and have some fabric swatches I like that I can send. For the mock\nneck, I\u2019m looking for sweatshirt material that minimizes lint transfer onto\nclothing underneath.\n\nCould you please review the attachments and let me know:\n\n   -\n\n   Whether these styles are a good fit for your capabilities, particularly\n   the high-support sports bra with adjustable straps, a hook-and-eye closure,\n   and a planned size range of 32A\u201340F.\n   -\n\n   Your experience developing and producing band-and-cup-sized sports bras,\n   including fuller cup sizes.\n   -\n\n   Whether you can work with my existing patterns and tech packs, and any\n   associated review or adjustment fees.\n   -\n\n   Your sourcing, sampling, fit revision, and grading costs, including what\n   is included in each.\n   -\n\n   Your production minimums per style, color, and size, and whether the bra\n   quantity can be split across band\/cup sizes.\n   -\n\n   Estimated production unit costs, including fabric, trims, labels, and\n   sewing. If firm pricing requires approved samples, a preliminary range\n   would be helpful.\n   -\n\n   Any additional development, setup, or ongoing project management fees.\n   -\n\n   Your current timeline for sourcing, sampling, and production.\n\nPlease let me know if you need any additional information to prepare an\nestimate. I\u2019d be happy to schedule a call to discuss the project.\n\nThank you!\n\nAlexa Maser\nFounder, CORE FORM ACTIVE LLC\n\n--\nUnsubscribe",

Your focus on supportive and functional activewear is inspiring, and we're glad you found us through the CFDA Production Directory.\n\nTo proceed with evaluating your project, I need to gather some specific information:\n\n1. **Quantities:** You mentioned approximately 150 units per style.

Would you be able to meet this minimum?\n\n2. **Target Price:** Could you please provide your maximum target production price per style? This will help us assess the commercial viability of your project.\n\n3. **Desired Delivery Date:** What is your desired delivery timeline? Please note that our minimum project cycle is at least 5 full calendar months from the current date.\n\nRegarding your questions about our capabilities and costs, I can confirm that we have experience in developing and producing activewear, including sports bras with various features.

Here are the additional details for CORE FORM:\n\n   1.\n\n   Quantities: I would consider 200 units per style, depending on final\n   pricing and total development costs.

Please let me know whether they are realistic for my designs\nand identify any additional charges.\n\n   3.\n\n   Delivery timeline: I am targeting a spring 2027 launch and can work with\n   a five-month project cycle. Does that timeline include sourcing, sampling,\n   fit revisions, and bulk production? What delivery date would be realistic?\n\nMy tech packs and base-size patterns are already completed, and I am\nlooking for support with fabric and trim sourcing, sampling, and\nproduction. For the bra, shorts, and tank, I am interested in a\nnylon\/spandex blend. For the mock-neck, I want sweatshirt material that\nminimizes shedding onto clothing underneath. I also have fabric swatches I\nlike and can send them as references.\n\nI would like to begin with sourcing and sampling before committing to bulk\nproduction, particularly to evaluate the sports bra\u2019s fit and support.\nCould you confirm whether you can accommodate the planned 32A\u201340F size\nrange within the 200-unit minimum?\n\nI would appreciate an estimated breakdown of sourcing fees, pattern review\nor adjustments, sampling, grading, and production costs, including which\ncosts are charged separately.\n\nThank you!\nAlexa Maser\nCORE FORM ACTIVE LLC\n\nOn Tue, Oct 13, 2026 at 8:20\u202fPM Matilde Azevedo \nwrote:\n\n> Hello Alexa,\n>\n> Thank you for reaching out and sharing details about CORE FORM.
