Who provides shoe samples before I place a bulk order?
We do. Sampling comes before bulk as standard: samples are 1-5 pairs per style, produced in 7-14 days from a design, tech pack or reference shoe, and the sample fee is credited against your bulk order once you proceed, so a confirmed order samples effectively for free. Air-freight sample delivery is typically 3-5 days worldwide.
The sample is where fit, last, upper, materials, colourways and logo placement are locked, and it becomes the quality reference for the full production run. That is why we recommend a sample for any new style rather than ordering blind. Once the sample is approved, bulk runs go out at the tiered MOQ of 10 / 50 / 100 pairs, with OEM from 200 pairs per style, and we can supply material swatches alongside the sample if you need them.
