| Topic | Options | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Leather | Genuine or PU | Genuine looks and ages better; PU cuts cost and is easier to color-match. |
| Footbed | Cork or EVA | Cork reads premium and molds to the foot; EVA is lighter and cheaper. |
| Packaging | Printed box or gift sleeve | On a premium pair the box is part of what the customer buys. |

|---|---|---|
| Upper | Full-grain or split leather | Full-grain ages best; split keeps cost down |

| Outsole | TPR or stitched rubber | A stitched rand is a premium tell |
| Hardware | Buckle or adjustable strap | Antique or matte finish |
| MOQ | 500 pairs per style | Leather samples take 10-14 days |
