            "content": "Hello,\n\nMy name is Tauno and I\u2019m currently developing a new performance and\ncalisthenics apparel brand called MEGIN, based in Estonia.\n\nFor our first product, we are looking for premium men\u2019s tapered technical\ncargo pants designed for both calisthenics training and casual\/streetwear\nuse.\n\nAt this stage, I would prefer to begin with an existing style or base\npattern that your company already manufactures rather than developing a\ncompletely new garment from scratch. I would like to order samples first,\ntest the product thoroughly, and then potentially make modifications for\nour final MEGIN version.\n\nThe main features I\u2019m looking for are:\n\n\u25cf 4-way stretch woven fabric\n\n\u25cf Ideally nylon\/elastane, approximately 180\u2013220 GSM, although I\u2019m open to\nyour recommendations\n\n\u25cf Premium quality and durable construction\n\n\u25cf Tapered\/slim athletic fit\n\n\u25cf Elastic waistband with drawstring, so no belt is required\n\n\u25cf Elastic ankle cuffs \u2014 very important for handstands and inverted\ncalisthenics movements\n\n\u25cf Full unrestricted hip and leg mobility\n\n\u25cf Cargo\/side pockets with a clean, modern appearance\n\n\u25cf Secure zipped pocket for phone\/keys\n\n\u25cf Black and charcoal\/grey initially\n\n\u25cf Private-label branding available later\n\n\nCould you please let me know:\n\n1. Do you already manufacture similar cargo pants or have existing styles I\ncould review?\n\n2. Could you send photos or catalogues of the closest available designs?\n\n3. Can I order 1\u20133 unbranded samples for testing?\n\n4. What is the sample price?\n\n5. What is your MOQ? Is the MOQ per style, colour, or size\/colour?\n\n6. Approximate pricing at 50, 100 and 250 units?\n\n7. Can an existing design later be modified, such as the fabric, pockets,\nwaistband, ankle cuffs or fit?\n\n8. What are your normal sample and production lead times?\n\n9. Approximate shipping time and cost to Estonia?\n\nThe first production run will intentionally be relatively small while we\ntest the market, but the goal is to establish a long-term manufacturing\nrelationship and scale production if the product performs well.\n\nThank you, and I look forward to hearing from you.\n\nBest regards,\nTauno\nMEGIN\nEstonia",

            "content": "Hello Tauno,\n\nThank you for reaching out and providing detailed information about your brand MEGIN and the cargo pants you wish to develop.\n\nTo assist you further, I need to gather some specific details:\n\n1. **Tech Pack or Physical Sample:** Do you have a Tech Pack or a Physical Sample for the cargo pants you want to develop?\n\n2. **Quantities:** What is the total quantity you intend to produce per style and per colour?\n\n3. **Desired Delivery Date:** What is your desired delivery date for the first production run?\n\n4. **Target Price:** What is your maximum target production price per style?\n\nRegarding your questions:\n\n- We do manufacture a range of products, including trousers, and can potentially work with existing styles or patterns. However, I need to confirm the specific details of your project to provide accurate information.\n\n- The MOQ for trousers is typically 200\u2013300 units per style, with a minimum of 100 units per colour.\n\n- Sample costs and production pricing depend on the specific design and complexity, which our technical team will evaluate once we have the complete project details.\n\n- Our standard lead times are approximately 6\u20138 weeks for sampling and 10\u201314 weeks for production after order placement.\n\n- Shipping is managed on an Ex-Works basis, meaning you would handle the shipping and insurance from our facility.\n\nOnce I have the above details, I can better assess your project and guide you on the next steps.\n\nLooking forward to your response.\n\nBest regards,\n\nMatilde Azevedo",

            "content": "Hello Matilde,\n\nThank you for the quick response.\n\nAt this stage, I do not yet have a Tech Pack or physical sample, as I would\nideally like to start from an existing cargo\/trouser style that you already\nmanufacture and then make modifications after testing the sample.\n\nFor the first production run, I am aiming to keep the quantity relatively\nsmall while testing the market. Ideally, I would be looking at around\n50\u2013100 units total, potentially starting with one colour only, most likely\nblack.\n\nWould it be possible to work with one of your existing styles or patterns\nat a lower MOQ than the standard 200\u2013300 units?\n\nIf so, could you please send me photos or a catalogue of any existing\ntechnical\/stretch cargo pants or similar trousers you currently manufacture?\n\nRegarding delivery date, I am still in the product development stage, so I\ndo not have a fixed deadline yet.\n\nFor pricing, I would prefer to first see the available styles and\nspecifications before setting a maximum target price. If possible, an\nindicative price range for 50, 100 and 200 units would be very helpful.\n\nThe main goal at this stage is to find the right base product, order a\nsample, test it thoroughly, and then potentially make modifications before\nmoving into production.\n\nThank you again and I look forward to hearing from you.\n\nBest regards,\nTauno\nMEGIN\n\n\nOn Thu, 27 Aug 2026 at 20:27, Matilde Azevedo \nwrote:\n\n> Hello Tauno,\n>\n> Thank you for reaching out and providing detailed information about your\n> brand MEGIN and the cargo pants you wish to develop.\n>\n> To assist you further, I need to gather some specific details:\n>\n> 1. *Tech Pack or Physical Sample:* Do you have a Tech Pack or a Physical\n> Sample for the cargo pants you want to develop?\n>\n> 2. *Quantities:* What is the total quantity you intend to produce per\n> style and per colour?\n>\n> 3. *Desired Delivery Date:* What is your desired delivery date for the\n> first production run?\n>\n> 4. *Target Price:* What is your maximum target production price per style?\n>\n> Regarding your questions:\n>\n> - We do manufacture a range of products, including trousers, and can\n> potentially work with existing styles or patterns.
