Put the decision in writing
State US or EU sizes, the requested size run and pairs per size. Identify the fit reference and any width requirement. A conversion chart alone cannot approve the last, internal length or heel hold; ask how the proposed sample will be checked.
Separate upper material, lining, closure and support construction from outsole material and surface use. Breathable mesh and a weather-oriented lining involve different priorities. Waterproof or traction wording requires exact-item test evidence under stated conditions; appearance is insufficient.
Give pair packaging, pack ratio, branding artwork, US destination and target timing. Ask the factory to confirm carton dimensions, weights, sample charges and freight exclusions. The same pair price can represent different landed procurement scope.
Build an assortment around the intended trail or walking use. Specify colorways and the pack ratio by size before accepting a supplier's standard carton. Record whether individual boxes, barcode labels or neutral packaging are needed.
Separate the existing shoe construction from requested logo, label and box changes. Ask which changes require a new sample or tooling decision. Keep artwork revision and sample approval distinct so a decorative proof does not approve fit.
Browse inquiry options, review how we source, or read the procurement brief. Catalog phrases identify search and inquiry scope; they do not establish a ranked factory, available stock or an approved model.
Start with your requirements
Send pairs by size, upper and outsole requirements, destination and expected approval sequence. An optional budget helps compare trade-offs; specify currency and whether it is per pair or the whole order.
High-end, mid-range, budget or undecided expresses your preference. Factory availability, MOQ, documents and delivery remain to be confirmed.
