Founded in 2015, we specialize in designing and producing running shoes, hiking boots, ski boots, casual footwear, and sandals for brands worldwide.

Our Competitive Advantages

🏭 Large-Scale Modern Factory

Our 15,000-square-meter manufacturing facility in Putian features multiple production lines capable of producing 500,000 pairs per month. Unlike smaller workshops, our factory offers consistent quality, reliable delivery, and the capacity to scale with your brand's growth. We invest continuously in equipment upgrades and process optimization.

🎨 International Design Team

With 30+ professional shoe designers based in Japan, Shanghai, and Italy, we offer design capability that most Chinese factories cannot match. Our designers understand global fashion trends, technical performance requirements, and the commercial realities of different markets. This makes our ODM service particularly powerful for brands that want original, market-ready designs.

💰 Low MOQ, Startup-Friendly

Our minimum order quantity of just 600 pairs per color is among the lowest in the industry for custom footwear. This makes us the ideal partner for startups, DTC brands, and established companies testing new product lines. You can launch multiple styles and colorways without the risk of overstock.

🎁 Free Design & Free Samples

We offer complimentary design services and free samples when you meet our MOQ. This zero-upfront-cost approach lets you see and feel the quality before committing to a production run. Most competitors charge $200–500+ per sample — we believe in earning your business through demonstrated quality.

🌍 Proven Global Track Record

We are the designated strategic partner of Arc'teryx for design, development, and mass production. Our clients span Europe, the United States, Japan, South Korea, and China. This diverse client base means we understand different market requirements, quality standards, and regulatory compliance across regions.

🔬 1,400m² R&D Center

Our dedicated research and development center in Putian enables us to develop new materials, test construction methods, and prototype innovations. We stay ahead of industry trends in midsole technology, sustainable materials, and manufacturing processes, passing these capabilities directly to our clients.

📋 Complete Supply Chain Service

From initial concept to delivered product, we handle every step: design, material sourcing, prototyping, production, quality control, custom packaging, and logistics. This end-to-end service eliminates the need to coordinate multiple vendors, saving you time and reducing the risk of miscommunication.
