Above Tall was created to solve that problem by offering garments engineered specifically for tall silhouettes.\n\n\nOur first product is a premium oversized hoodie and jogger set with the following specifications:\n\n\n  *   100% pre-washed cotton fleece\n  *   Fabric weight: 380\u2013400 GSM\n  *   Double-layer hood\n  *   Oversized but structured fit\n  *   Designed specifically for tall proportions\n  *   Premium embroidery logos\n  *   Made in Portugal (target)\n\n\n\nAt the moment, the patterns are being developed by a professional pattern maker and will be finalized soon.\n\n\nI am currently looking for a Portuguese manufacturing partner who could:\n\n\n  1.  Produce a pre-production sample (prototype) of the hoodie and joggers\n  2.   handle bulk production after validation\n\n\n\nCould you please let me know:\n\n\n  *   If you are able to produce a prototype from patterns\n  *   Your MOQ for production\n  *   Estimated sampling cost\n  *   Estimated production lead time\n  *   Whether you can source premium 380\u2013400 GSM pre-washed cotton fleece\n\n\n\nI would be happy to share the patterns, technical details and visual references once they are finalized.\n\n\nThank you very much for your time, and I look forward to hearing from you.\n\n\nBest regards,\n\nSaliou\n\nFounder \u2013 Above Tall\n\n\nEnvoy\u00e9 de mon iPhone",

It's great that the tech packs are being finalized; we will await the files to proceed with a full analysis by our technical team.\n\nRegarding the fabric, sourcing a heavyweight French terry or cotton fleece in the 380\u2013400 GSM range is certainly possible. We can confirm the best options once we review your full designs.\n\nHowever, regarding the quantities, I must point out that our minimum production quantity is 200 units per style. For a hoodie and jogger, which are considered two separate styles, this would require an order of 200 hoodies and 200 joggers.\n\nFor quantities lower than this, we typically suggest a service that specializes in smaller batches, such as www.privatelabelclothes.com, which might be a better fit for your first production run. Otherwise, to proceed with us, we would need you to meet the 200-unit minimum for each item.\n\nTo continue with the project analysis on our end, I would just need a few more details:\n\n1. Location: What is your country?\n2. Timeline: What is your desired delivery date?\n3. Target Price: What is your target production price per style, for the hoodie and jogger separately?\n\n$$SYSTEM NOTE: The user provided links in the email body (www.privatelabelclothes.com,).
