Our focus is on understated design, excellent materials, refined fits and construction quality \u2013 products designed for the golf course, but equally relevant beyond it.\n\nFor our initial collection, the main products we are currently developing are:\n\nSignature Polo \u2013 premium compact piqu\u00e9, approximately 230\u2013245 gsm, structured collar and placket, relaxed tailored fit\nQuarter Zip \u2013 premium, clean and understated layering piece\nGolf Trouser \u2013 slightly higher rise, room through seat and thigh with a refined taper and stretch for golf\nHeavyweight Hoodie \/ Sweatshirt \u2013 approximately 430\u2013460 gsm, substantial and structured with a premium handfeel\nWe are also developing a technical Performance Polo, approximately 180\u2013200 gsm, using a premium matte performance fabric with stretch, moisture management and excellent breathability. We would be interested to understand whether this is also within your manufacturing network.\n\nAs we are currently pre-launch, our initial production quantities will likely be around 100\u2013200 pieces per style\/colour, with the intention to scale as the brand develops. We are therefore looking for a partner who is comfortable working with an emerging premium brand through the development and sampling stage, rather than simply providing standard private-label products.\n\nCould you please let me know:\n\nWhether these products and initial quantities would be suitable for your production network.\nWhether you can support fabric sourcing, pattern development, grading and sample development from our specifications\/tech packs.\nWhat premium piqu\u00e9, jersey, fleece and stretch-woven fabric options you would recommend for this type of collection.\nYour typical sampling process, sample costs and lead times.\nYour approximate production lead times and MOQs.\nWhether you could share examples of comparable premium apparel you have developed or manufactured.\nIf there seems to be a good fit, I would be happy to arrange a short video call and share more detailed product specifications and references.\n\nAs the brand is currently in pre-launch development, we are deliberately keeping the full brand concept confidential until we have identified the right manufacturing partners.\n\nI look forward to hearing from you.\n\nBest regards,\n\nFredrik Mollberg\nCo-Founder\nSweden",

Please note that our minimum order quantities for general clothing are typically 200\u2013300 units per style.

Great however if you can let me know which of the items you can develop.\n\nNo need to quote the full collection at this stage.

Tech Pack and Reference Garments: Please prepare and send us the detailed Tech Pack along with any physical reference garments you have.
