However I can share detailed reference images of the styles we are developing. Would this work as an alternative while we progress through sampling?\nOn MOQ \u2014 we can work with 200 units per style. Could you please confirm your per unit pricing for 200 units in 95% Lenzing Modal \/ 5% Spandex or 95% Bamboo Viscose \/ 5% Spandex at 200-220 GSM with OEKO-TEX certification? Understanding the cost per unit will help us confirm quantities and proceed.\nLooking forward to hearing from you.\nKind regards,\nSimran\nSent from my iPhone\n\n> On 18 May 2026, at 7:57\u202fpm, Matilde Azevedo  wrote:\n> \n> Hello Simran,\n> \n> Thank you for your prompt response and for providing the details about your brand, Esemti.\n> \n> Since you do not have a Tech Pack or physical sample at this stage, I would like to ask if you have a physical sample (an actual garment) that you can ship to our office in Portugal.
