I wanted to reach out with the full picture of what\nwe're building, since we're looking for a long-term manufacturing partner\nrather than a one-off order.\n\n*The brand:* SOTAVENTO is a premium streetwear-luxury line targeting\ncustomers who already own high-end accessories and expect that same quality\nin their everyday clothing \u2014 think Chrome Hearts-adjacent design language\napplied to elevated basics, built around a custom compass-star motif that\nruns across the whole line. We're finishing design on our first collection\nand preparing for a pilot production run before scaling into a full ongoing\nline.\n\n*What we're looking for from your team:*\n\n   1. An overview of your production capabilities and how you typically\n   work with a new brand from initial samples through to ongoing small-batch\n   and scaled production\n   2. Details on your fulfillment\/warehouse service \u2014 specifically: minimum\n   order volume to qualify, per-unit pick\/pack fees, storage costs, whether\n   you integrate with e-commerce platforms like Shopify for order syncing,\n   return handling, and whether shipping covers the US\/international or is\n   Europe-only\n   3. Any other services your group offers that could support a growing\n   brand (tech pack development, branding, etc.) \u2014 happy to hear what's\n   available\n\nWe're building this as a real long-term brand, not a single drop, so we're\nespecially interested in a partner who can grow with us across production\nand fulfillment as we scale. Once we've connected, I'm glad to share full\nspecs and tech packs for the pieces we're developing.\n\nLooking forward to hearing from you.\n\nBest regards,\nSebastian",

            "content": "Hi Matilde,\n\nThanks for the quick response. Here are the details:\n\n*Product category:* Hoodies, sweatpants, and jeans =E2=80=94 a premium stre=\netwear\nline.\n\n*Styles\/quantities:* For this pilot stage, we want to start with just 1\nstyle per category (hoodie, sweatpants, jeans) =E2=80=94 possibly 2, but mo=\nst\nlikely just 1 to start. Longer-term, our plan is to grow to 4 styles each\nacross the hoodie, sweatpants, and jeans categories, so we're looking for a\npartner who can scale with us as that expands. The hoodie and sweatpants\npilot style is also planned across two colorways (charcoal and a\nbeige\/recolor variant). Could you provide tiered pricing at 50, 100, and\n250 units per style so we can compare against volume? We're not locked into\na specific quantity yet.\n\n*Tech pack:* Yes =E2=80=94 I've attached our tech packs for the hoodie+swea=\ntpants\nand the jeans, covering fabric, construction, measurements, and graphics\nspecs.\n\n*Target price:* We don't have a fixed cap =E2=80=94 we'd rather see your st=\nandard\nquote based on the specs in the attached tech packs, then work from there.\n\n*Delivery date:* No fixed hard deadline =E2=80=94 this is our first pilot r=\nun, so\nwe're flexible, but happy to hear your standard lead time from sample\napproval to delivery.\n\nOne additional question: the jeans have custom silver-tone hardware =E2=80=\n=94 a\ncompass-star engraved shank button, plus silver rivets and stud details on\nthe leather star patches. Can your team produce custom silver hardware like\nthis in-house, or would that need to be sourced separately and supplied to\nyou?\n\nUnderstood on fulfillment and tech pack\/branding not being offered =E2=80=\n=94 that's\nfine, we'll handle those separately. Appreciate the confidentiality note as\nwell.\n\nLooking forward to your quote.\n\nBest,\nSebastian\n\nOn Wed, Sep 23, 2026 at 4:44=E2=80=AFPM Matilde Azevedo \nwrote:\n\n> Hello Sebastian,\n>\n> Thank you for reaching out and sharing details about SOTAVENTO.

Could you confirm if you are able to meet these minimums?\n\nAs for the custom silver-tone hardware for the jeans, we do not produce custom hardware in-house. You would need to source these separately and supply them to us.\n\nRegarding the delivery timeline, our standard lead time from sample approval to delivery is approximately 5 full calendar months. Since you mentioned flexibility, this timeline should work well for your pilot run.\n\nPlease let me know if you can adjust the quantities to meet our minimums, and if you have any flexibility regarding the target price per style. Once we have these confirmations, we can proceed further.\n\nLooking forward to your response.\n\nBest regards,  \nMatilde Azevedo",
