Unfortunately, our minimum order quantity for underwear is 1,000 units per style and per color. Your request for 150 units is below our minimum, and we are unable to accommodate orders of this size.\n\n2. Regarding fabric options suited for sauna use, I cannot confirm specific materials at my level. Our technical team would need to review your requirements to determine suitable options.\n\n3. For pricing, we provide accurate quotes only after our technical team analyzes your Tech Pack or physical sample and confirms the final quantities. Could you please provide your target production price per style?\n\n4. As for the sewn insert-pocket construction detail, our technical team would need to review your design specifications to confirm feasibility.\n\n5. We can ship to Geneva, Switzerland, but please note that our shipping terms are Ex-Works, meaning you would manage and pay for shipping and insurance.\n\nIf you are able to meet our minimum order quantities, please let me know, and we can proceed with gathering further details.

While I was initially targeting Q2 2026, I'm willing to\nadjust the timeline if it means working with the right manufacturing\npartner and maintaining quality standards. Portuguese manufacturing has an\nexcellent reputation, and getting the product right is more important than\nrushing the launch.\n\n*Regarding the physical sample:*\nI don't currently have a physical sample to send, as that is what we were\nhoping to optician via the samples. I think I should work on my end to\ncreate detailed tech packs. Would that work?\n\n*Regarding pricing:* The target price I mentioned (~$12) was for the\ngarment production cost only (not including packaging or shipping).\nHowever, I'm still researching production costs for technical underwear\nwith cooling features, so this is a preliminary estimate.\n\nGiven the technical requirements (silver-infused nylon, secure internal\npocket for removable cooling insert), what would you estimate as a\nrealistic production price at:\n\n   -\n\n   500-1,000 unit run\n   -\n\n   2,000-5,000 unit run\n\n*Design clarification:* The cooling technology uses a removable PCM pouch\nthat the user inserts into an internal pocket in the underwear. The design\nis straightforward:\n\n   -\n\n   Internal pocket in the pouch area(below scrotum) with a *top opening\n   only* (no closure mechanism needed - no snaps, zippers, or elastic)\n   -\n\n   Opening sized to fit the cooling insert (approximately 14x12cm)\n   -\n\n   Gravity keeps the insert in place during wear\n   -\n\n   User can remove the insert for washing the underwear and recharging the\n   cooling pouch\n\n*Key questions to move forward:*\n\n   1.\n\n   Do you have experience working with *silver-infused or antimicrobial\n   technical fabrics* (as opposed to organic fabrics)? This is essential\n   for the product.\n   2.\n\n   Can your facility create this *simple internal pocket design* -\n   top-opening construction without any closure mechanisms?\n\n3.
