these are too pink, can we make them a more red toned - 'red heat' instead.

this back paint won't be visible trough the tooling because it's pigmented

Julia

ah, I want it to look like the cotton candy is suspended in the tooling

in that case lets do a yellow.

we could either do a marbled effect, which would be unpredictable between shoes or we could do a cubic dip that allows us to control the pattern

Julia

can we order a smaple of both

Jonathan

no the lead time is too long we need to choose one, I think that the candyfloss will be more consistent across the pack if it's a cubic dip

Costing Vamp

The pricing of the vamp suede is misaligned by a factor of 3x from the previous costing.

Costing Vamp

Hi Bart, on the CBD for this sample the costing of the vamp synthetic seems unusually high. Is this a mistake?

Hi Nikita, this is because of an error in our system, we will resolve that.

Tounge

6 Jan 2025

The foam in the tounge is adding extra thickness to the upper which is making it uncomfortable. It’s failed the fit and wear tests.

Tounge

Sven

Can we chang it to a slightly softer foam?

Tounge

AI

The last foam that was used ina tounge with this last in the past was 3mm FoamEasy Prime. This cost $1.10, a significant increase on the $0.6 currently in use for this component.

I think that it would look better with no foam anyway, this doesn't really align with the sleek sillouette of the shoe.

We can cahnge to Liningtex super lining, it's no additional cost and will fix this issue.

hello, this vamp is very firm, did you use a different reinforcement?

vamp softness

Bart

the pink base synthetic requires more layers of ink to achieve an effective screen print so this is making it firmer

vamp softness

15 Jan 2025

julia this needs to have fewer colurs or have a paler base colour

julia

for the visuals of the pack we need to keep the darker pink and the many colours can we use a digital print

vamp softness

16 Jan 2025

AI

The use of a digital print will reduce the grip coating on this model

that’s ok because it’s a liited edition collectors model

This was just an issue to meet the ETD for this sample. Will be more secure next time.

ok perfect

Claude

It's very important to the eppearance of the pack to keep the print crazy and multi coloured

vamp softness

17 Jan 2025

Yes that should be ok, however this is a cost increase so we wil need to switch to

vamp softness

17 Jan 2025

Claude

How much woul it be roughly?

vamp softness

17 Jan 2025

AI

The previous 3 digital prints on the vamp cost $2.17. The screen prints currently cost $1.70

That works with the rest of the CBD to keep us under Target Cost

Tooling Colour

the client is asking for a single colour tooling as they are trying to keep a very sleek look that aligns with their new marketing rollout

Julia

Did they have a prefrence on darker or lighter? Can we order a smaple with Gum 20 and Gum 30? That way we can see which looks best?

Tooling Colour

30 Jan 2025

No, the factory has a full sample room right now and the lead time would be too long on both toolings being fully assembled. They have to reset the entire injection molding line to change the colour.

Stitching

In this sample the toe box stitching is very uneven, why is this?

Stitching

Bart

This was a mistake from the sample room, we needed to hit the ETD and so did not have time to fix after there was an error.

Stitching

19 Feb 2025

Ah I understand, let me chcek with the PLM on this to see if we need a new sample with correct stitching for the client confirmation sample.
