BUYING GUIDE / BEFORE A COMMERCIAL STEP
Ask what
changes the answer.
Keep commercial questions visible.
Request written confirmation of what the quotation includes: material references, tooling or sample costs, proposed minimums, packaging, terms, destination, lead-time basis and validity. None of these items has a demo default.
- What is included in the quoted sample and what is excluded?
- Which material substitutions or revisions change the quotation?
- What must be approved before a proposed production timetable begins?
Make comparison like-for-like.
Compare proposals against the same material and construction brief. Record differences explicitly rather than treating visually similar shoes as equivalent products.
- Are upper, lining, bottom and reinforcement references the same?
- Which fit, test, destination and packaging assumptions differ?
- Who owns any unresolved evidence and what is the next gate?
Frequently asked questions.
Can this site send my brief to a supplier?
No. The brief is generated locally as a text record marked NOT SENT. There is no endpoint, inbox, account or upload service.
Are the materials and colours approved options?
No. They are conceptual directions. Actual material availability, composition, feasibility and colour must be confirmed with physical references and an actual supplier.
Where are the prices, minimums and lead times?
They are deliberately unconfirmed. Invented numbers would conceal decisions that belong in a real supplier proposal.
Does the site establish fit, comfort or performance?
No. Generated images and material descriptions cannot establish those outcomes. Physical review and appropriate evidence remain necessary.
