At\nthis stage, we are not asking for a full prototype yet \u2014 our priority\nis to review existing physical samples and understand which\nconstruction could be the right base for a later development phase.\n\nOur product direction is a premium mid-crew or crew technical sock for\nlong active days: lightweight, breathable, dry-touch, durable, with a\nclean black or white base and a large simple SOK logo in one\ncontrasting flashy color.\n\nWe are looking for existing samples close to:\n\n1. lightweight running \/ performance sock;\n2. breathable upper mesh construction;\n3. fast-drying polyamide, recycled polyester, Coolmax or equivalent\ntechnical yarn;\n4. stable midfoot \/ arch support;\n5. flat or seamless toe;\n6. reinforced heel and toe;\n7. premium handfeel, not bulky;\n8. example of large knitted \/ jacquard branding if available;\n9. example with silicone \/ grip application if available.\n\nCould you please let us know whether you can send or sell a small\nsample pack of existing models close to this direction?\n\nFor each relevant sample, could you please also share:\n- composition and yarn references;\n- machine gauge \/ needle count if available;\n- approximate pair weight;\n- toe seam type;\n- available branding techniques and limitations for a large SOK wordmark;\n- MOQ per style \/ color \/ size;\n- indicative unit price range at 1,000 \/ 2,000 \/ 5,000 \/ 10,000 pairs\nif available;\n- sample cost and shipping process;\n- approximate sample and production lead times.\n\nIf samples and construction are relevant, we can then send a more\nprecise product brief for prototype development.\n\nBest regards,\nAdrien",

            "content": "Hello Adrien,\n\nThank you for reaching out and providing detailed information about your project with SOK. I understand that you are currently in the evaluation phase for your technical sock project and are interested in reviewing existing samples.\n\nAt this stage, we focus on gathering the necessary commercial details to evaluate the viability of potential projects. To proceed, I would need some additional information from you:\n\n1. **Quantities:** What is the total quantity you are considering for production per style and color? Please note that our minimum order quantity for socks is 1,000 units per style and color.\n2. **Target Price:** What is your maximum target production price per pair?\n3. **Desired Delivery Date:** What is your desired delivery timeline for the production?\n\nRegarding your request for existing samples, please note that we first need to complete the project details before any sample dispatch can be confirmed. Once all the project details are fully gathered and confirmed, we can discuss the next steps.\n\nPlease provide the missing details, and we can continue from there.\n\nBest regards,  \nMatilde Azevedo",

Quantities\nFor a first production run, we would likely consider:\n- 1,000 pairs per style \/ color, aligned with your MOQ;\n- 2 colorways to start: black base and white base;\n- therefore around 2,000 pairs total for a first run, depending on\nfinal construction, price and sample validation.\n\nIf the product performs well, we would then consider larger repeat orders.\n\n2. Target price\nFor a premium but simple technical sock, our initial target would be\naround \u20ac2.50\u2013\u20ac4.00 per pair ex-works, depending on:\n- yarn composition;\n- technical construction;\n- needle count;\n- branding method;\n- packaging;\n- final quantity.\n\nIf this range is not realistic for the type of construction we\ndescribed, please let us know what price range would be more\nappropriate.\n\n3. Desired delivery date\nWe do not have a fixed production deadline yet. A realistic target for\na first production run would be Q1\/Q2 2027. For now, our priority is\nto review relevant existing samples and understand which construction\ncould be the right base before moving to a prototype or production\norder.\n\nThe product direction remains:\n- mid-crew or crew technical sock;\n- lightweight, breathable, dry-touch;\n- stable midfoot \/ arch support;\n- flat or seamless toe if possible;\n- reinforced heel and toe;\n- clean black or white base;\n- large simple SOK wordmark in one contrasting color.\n\nCould you please let us know, based on these details, whether Portugal\nTextile has existing reference samples close to this direction?\n\nBest regards,\nAdrien",

Based on your target price range of \u20ac2.50\u2013\u20ac4.00 per pair, I would like to ask if there is any flexibility to increase your budget per unit, as this will help us ensure that the technical specifications and quality you are aiming for can be met.\n\nRegarding your interest in existing samples, we first need to gather all the project details before confirming any sample dispatch.
