            "content": "Dear Team,\n\nI'm developing a *mid-calf performance football sock* and am looking for a\nknitting partner to produce it. I'd be grateful for a quotation and\ncustomisation-feasibility answers against the attached specification.\n\nPlease find attached our *full product spec (*\nValu12_MasterSpec_V12-MS-001_updated) *and grip-placement drawing *\n(V12-TP-004)*, *as well as an AI mock-up, and logo.\n\nThe sock is technical, knitted-in 360=C2=B0 arch compression, a two-part gr=\nip\nsystem, an ankle X-strap inlay and a flat hand-linked toe. However, it has\nbeen deliberately engineered to run on *standard computerised circular\nmachines: one unified body yarn blend across all zones, with zone-to-zone\ndifferences achieved structurally (pile, denier, mesh, inlay) rather than\nby changing yarns.* There are only four programme exceptions to the blend.\n\nIn brief:\n\n   - *Style:* Mid-calf, anatomical L\/R pair. Phase 1 in optical white. Two\n   sizes =E2=80=94 Medium (UK 6=E2=80=939 \/ EU 39=E2=80=9343 \/ US 7=E2=80=\n=9310 \/ ~250=E2=80=93275 mm) and Large (UK\n   10=E2=80=9313 \/ EU 44.5=E2=80=9348 \/ US 11=E2=80=9314 \/ ~280=E2=80=93305=\n mm).\n   - *Construction:* Unified body blend with four programme exceptions\n   (arch band, toe, inner-plantar grip inlay, graduated cuff) =E2=80=94 see=\n =C2=A71a\/=C2=A71b\n   in Valu12_MasterSpec_V12-MS-001_updated.\n   - *Compression:* 360=C2=B0 knitted-in arch band, 15=E2=80=9320 mmHg on 1=\n40D elastane\n   (knitted-in, not external elastic).\n   - *Grip (two-part):* PU flocking (or Silicone) on the outer face =E2=80=\n=94\n   chevron pattern, full coverage on toe box, metatarsal and heel;\n   lateral-edge column; horizontal brake bars at back of heel; medial arch\n   clear =E2=80=94 plus an inner silicone-core grip yarn. *Please quote bot=\nh the\n   flocking and the silicone-fallback options.*\n   - *Performance minimums:* CoF =E2=89=A50.80 dry \/ =E2=89=A51.10 wet; gri=\np =E2=89=A580% CoF\n   retained at 30 washes with no delamination at 50 washes; OEKO-TEX STANDA=\nRD\n   100 on all materials.\n   - *Branding\/packaging:* No sewn-in collar label; Jacquard-knitted cuff\n   wordmark; recyclable kraft belly-band.\n\nPlease review the full spec and complete the *RFQ checklist (Section 7)*,\nincluding *tiered ex-works pricing at 500 \/ 1,000 \/ 2,000 pairs* (we're\nassuming an MOQ of ~500 pairs per size for first production) and sample\nlead times. We'd especially value your confirmation on the items that are\nhardest in this build: *in-house PU flocking (Q6\/Q7), the inner knitted-in\nsilicone-core grip yarn (Q8), the 360=C2=B0 knitted-in compression band\nincluding compression retained after washing (Q15), and the flat\nhand-linked toe =E2=89=A40.5 mm (Q22).* Please flag any deviations clearly.\n\nThank you for your time and consideration.\n\nBest regards,\nIon V. | VALU12\n\n$$SYSTEM NOTE: The user provided attached files (Valu12_MasterSpec_V12-MS-001_updated_6a3d320a129d2.pdf, Product_poster_v2_6a3d320a12c77.png, Valu_12_logo_6a3d320a13783.png).
