I am currently developing my\nown premium trail running apparel brand and am looking for a reliable\nmanufacturing partner for long-term cooperation.\n\nWe already have an established company in Slovenia, and our goal is to\nstart with one key product and gradually develop a wider collection of\ntechnical trail and ultra-trail running apparel.\n\nFor our first product, I am looking to develop premium baggy trail running\nshorts. The concept includes a lightweight, soft and breathable technical\nfabric, 4-way stretch, quick-drying properties, a relaxed approximately\nknee-length fit, and functional storage around the waistband.\n\nFor the initial launch, we are considering approximately 50\u2013100 pieces per\nstyle\/color, divided across different sizes.\n\nCould you please provide some information regarding:\n\n   -\n\n   Your MOQ per style and per color\n   -\n\n   Whether the MOQ can be split across different sizes\n   -\n\n   Whether you can develop the product from our concept, sketches and\n   specifications\n   -\n\n   Technical fabric options suitable for trail and ultra-trail running\n   -\n\n   Sample\/prototype development, costs and lead time\n   -\n\n   Estimated unit price range for an order of 50\u2013100 pieces\n   -\n\n   Production lead time after sample approval\n   -\n\n   Custom labels, logo printing\/embroidery and packaging options\n   -\n\n   Payment terms\n   -\n\n   Shipping options and estimated delivery time to Slovenia\n\nQuality, functionality and a premium finish are very important to us.\nAlthough we are starting with a relatively small first production, we are\nlooking for a long-term manufacturing partner as we plan to expand into a\nbroader trail running collection.\n\nI would be happy to send you our initial design concept and further details\nof the shorts.\n\nThank you and I look forward to hearing from you.\n\nBest regards,\nBla\u017eka\nSlovenia\n\n-- \nVes Bla\u017eka",
