Please recommend the most suitable fabric \ncomposition and GSM for this.\n*\tBack print: The large artwork shown in the reference image. I do not want \nthe colors to look too bright, saturated or heavy. I would prefer a slightly \nfaded \/ semi-transparent appearance, so the artwork blends naturally into \nthe black fabric and creates a more premium, subtle look.\n*\tFront: My Fear Code logo positioned on the right chest, as shown in the \nreferences.\n*\tLeft sleeve: The Fear Code logo should also be placed on the left sleeve.\n*\tThe remaining design details and overall aesthetic should follow the \nattached reference images as closely as possible.\n\nThe separate logo image I attached is the official Fear Code logo that \nshould be used for the chest and sleeve.\n\nAt this stage, I would first like to order only one prototype\/sample in size \nM. Could you please let me know the total development\/sample price for this \none T-shirt, including the printing and all necessary development costs?\n\nIf I am satisfied with the sample, I would like to proceed with a larger \norder and also develop additional T-shirt designs\/motifs with you.\n\nI understand the MOQs you mentioned for final production. For now, I would \nsimply like to develop and evaluate the first prototype before committing to \nthe production quantity.\n\nPlease also let me know if you need any additional measurements, artwork \nfiles or specifications from me in order to calculate the sample price.\n\nThank you very much, and I look forward to your feedback.\n\nGreetings\n\nKarolina Wnuk\n\n\n\n\n\nAm 14.09.2026 um 18:28 schrieb Matilde Azevedo \n:\n\n\n\nHi Karolina ,\n\n\n\n\nThank you very much for your contact.
