            "content": "Hello Portugal Textile team,\n\nI am the founder of SEKIZ, a new premium women's coastal lifestyle brand\nlaunching Spring 2027. We are building a small, considered collection of\ntechnical outerwear for women who sail, starting with a waterproof sailing\njacket.\n\nI am currently reaching out to a shortlist of manufacturers to find the\nright long-term production partner. SEKIZ is a small first run but we are\nbuilding a brand with multiple product categories planned across\ncollections, including a change robe, merino base layer, sailing trousers,\nand accessories are already in the pipeline for 2027 and 2028.\n\nOur sailing jacket is a technically complex garment. Key specifications\ninclude:\n\n\n   - 120GSM nylon shell, 2L PU membrane laminate, 10,000mm waterproof rating\n   - Fully taped seams\n   - YKK AquaGuard waterproof zippers in brushed gold\n   - Body-mapped interior lining: satin-weave polyester body and sleeves,\n   microfibre fleece collar and pocket bags, breathable mesh panels\n   - Two colorways\n\nA full tech pack is ready to share.\n\nBefore proceeding I would like to understand:\nYour experience with technical waterproof outerwear and PU membrane\nlaminate fabrics specifically:\n\n\n   1. Your minimum order quantity for a garment of this complexity.\n   2. Your fabric sourcing capability. We need to confirm colorway approval\n   from physical swatches before lab dips.\n   3. Your typical timeline from tech pack to first prototype.\n\nWe are aiming to sign with a manufacturer by June 20 2026 to meet our March\n2027 launch.\n\nPlease let me know if this is a project you would like to discuss further.\nI am happy to share the full tech pack under NDA.\n\nMany thanks,\n\nKathryn",
