We are currently\ndeveloping a quality-focused wellness brand centered on wearable terry\ngarments for sauna use, specifically skirts and tops designed for comfort,\nlightness, and breathability in high-temperature environments.\n\nThe concept is based on lightweight, soft, cotton-based terry fabrics\n(potentially cotton\/linen blends, approx. 220\u2013300 GSM), with a focus on a\nrefined, less bulky construction while maintaining a soft and comfortable\n\u201ctowel-like\u201d feel. The first products include a wrap skirt as well as a top\nspecifically designed for sauna use.\n\nWe are looking for a development-oriented partner with strong expertise in\nterry fabrics and construction, ideally supporting both fabric\nselection\/development and garment production.\n\nAt this stage, it would be helpful to understand:\n\n\u00b7       your experience with similar terry or wearable products\n\n\u00b7       your capabilities regarding sourcing or developing lightweight\nterry fabrics\n\n\u00b7       your sampling process and typical lead times\n\n\u00b7       your MOQ for sampling and initial production\n\nIf relevant, I would be happy to share further product details and initial\nconcepts in the next steps.\n\nKind regards,\nDebora Hientz\nThe Sauna Edit\ncontact@thesaunaedit.de",

Our website is\ncurrently in development, and the domain has already been secured.\n\nThe initial development includes two styles: a wrap skirt and a top. The\ntech packs and mock-ups are fully completed and can be provided together\nwith the collection overview as attachments. Physical samples are not\navailable yet\n\nBased on our intended positioning and quality we want to reach, an ideal\nproduction target would be around =E2=82=AC20=E2=80=9335 per piece, dependi=\nng on fabric,\nconstruction, trims, and MOQ. I would be grateful if you could advise\nwhether this range is realistic for the attached styles and provide an\nestimated quotation per style.\n\nRegarding the timeline, I would like to start with sampling as soon as\nfeasible. The final delivery date can be discussed depending on your\nsampling and production lead times.\n\nKind regards,\nDebora Hientz\n\n\nAm Fr., 8.
