Sourcing board

Two children's shops, restocking for the new school term. Boxed size runs suit us better than loose pairs — a mixed box per model is fine. Leather and textile both work; we need the size run stated per box before we commit.

Growing demand for respectful footwear in our stores and parents ask for it by name. Wide toe box and a genuinely flexible sole are the two things we are judged on. Happy to start with one model across the full size run.

Multi-brand store, two locations. Prefer mixed-size packs S–XXL, classic colours plus one seasonal. Need an invoice with the full EU trail and delivery before the season set.

Buying for a younger floor. Logo-forward pieces that photograph well online sell fastest for us. Article codes and photographs needed before we commit; can repeat quickly if sell-through holds.

Alpine town, season starts early for us. Heavier weights and muted colours move best. Would take a mixed series across two or three models rather than depth in one.

Seasonal buy, sells from October to February. Adult and children's both. Boxed assortments are fine; we mainly need to know what the size split inside a box looks like.

Classic town shoe for an older customer. Real leather upper matters, the sole less so. Would confirm a first test order the same week if photographs and the size run check out.

Two stores, distressed and clean washes both sell for us. A mixed series of 10 per model is fine. Stock on hand matters more than price — the season is already running.

Basics wall in two stores, we reorder this every quarter. Mixed S–XXL packs per colour, nude and black are the two that never sit. Need the size split inside a pack written down before we commit.

Till-point buy, sells year round. Plain and patterned both. A box per size run is easier for us to handle than loose pairs — tell us how many pairs a box holds.

Men's floor, we sell a shirt with a jacket. Plain and micro-pattern, classic collar. Article codes and photographs before we order; we can repeat within the season if it moves.

Season starts in October here and lined boots go first. Real leather is a plus but a good sole matters more to our customer. Would take a mixed size run across two models.

Buying early for next summer. Flat and low-wedge both work; comfort sells better than fashion for our floor. Boxed assortments are fine if the size split is stated.

Lightweight padded pieces for the transitional weeks, then heavier from November. Muted colours move best. Delivery date matters more than depth — we would rather have two models on time than four late.

Younger floor, matching sets outsell separates for us. Need the top and bottom priced as a set and the size run stated. Photographs that show the logo clearly help us pre-sell online.
