Product Overview

Key Design Features

1. Panelled toe, not a toe post. The front of the foot sits under a solid panel. Nothing runs between the toes, so there is no break-in period and no post to wear through.

2. The lattice is one moulded piece. The openings are formed in the mould, not assembled from strips. There are no cut ends to fray and no joints to split.

3. Aired through the holes. The pierced pattern moves air across the top of the foot, which is what keeps a closed front wearable in heat.

4. One strap, one buckle. The single instep strap adjusts at the side. Fewer components than a multi-strap slide, so the pair stays light on the shelf and on the foot.

5. Wavy trim on the strap. A soft scalloped edge along the bottom of the strap breaks the straight line and sits against the foot without a hard corner digging in.

6. White midsole with a gold edge. The contrast line separates the upper from the sole at display distance, which makes the pair read as a finished shoe rather than a moulded basic.

7. The pattern hides wear. A plain vamp shows scuffs and creases at the flex point. A pierced panel breaks up that surface, so road marks sit inside the openings instead of on a flat face.

Factory Strength

Established 2006 — 20 years in moulded footwear.

Facility 30,000㎡ in Wuchuan, Guangdong.

Workforce 500+ workers across moulding, assembly and packing.

Capacity 3,000,000 pairs per month.

Export record shipped to 100+ countries.

Defect rate under 0.5% on final inspection.

Mould control — the lattice pattern is cut into the tool, so every pair from that tool carries the same opening size and spacing.

Edge line — the gold line on the midsole is applied and checked against a limit sample, because a wandering line shows badly on a white sole.

Why Importers Choose This Product

It widens the wear occasion. A panelled front takes the pair beyond poolside into the shop floor, the office and the school run. One style covers more of the week, which raises the sell-through per pair.

It stands apart on a crowded wall. Most slides in this price band are flat open-toe vamps. The pierced front reads differently from arm's length, before a customer picks anything up.

Low component count. One strap, one buckle, one moulded panel and one sole. Assembly time is short, so the cost sits in the tool rather than in labour.

The white sole sells the pair. The contrast midsole and gold line lift the perceived value without adding material cost.

Four colours on one tool. Black, cream, coffee and pink all run from the same mould, so a mixed order carries no extra development charge.

No toe post to fail. The most common failure point on a classic flip-flop is the post pulling out of the sole. This construction has no post, so that warranty claim does not exist on this style.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a closed-toe shoe?

The toe is covered by a panel, but the panel is pierced. The foot is visible through the openings and the shoe is open at the heel and sides. It is a slide with a panelled front, not a closed shoe.

Is the lattice woven or moulded?

Moulded. The openings are formed in a single PVC piece, not assembled from woven strips. There are no loose ends and nothing to unravel.

What is the minimum order quantity?

1,800 pairs, made up of one size range and three colors.

What is the lead time?

15-25 days after deposit, depending on colour split and packing.

Can I get a sample first?

Yes. The sample fee is refundable against the bulk order.

Does the white midsole show dirt?

Yes, faster than a dark sole at the edge. It wipes clean, but on a market or street surface the white line picks up dust before the upper does. A black midsole is available for buyers who would rather not deal with it.

Will the gold edge line wear off?

The line sits on the midsole edge and takes abrasion on kerbs and stairs. It is applied to last, but the edge of a sole is a wear surface, and the line will dull there over time.

Is the buckle adjustable?

Yes. The side buckle adjusts the single instep strap across a normal range for each size.

Can the strap fit a wide foot?

The strap adjusts, but a wide forefoot is limited by the fixed toe panel rather than by the strap. Buyers with a wide-foot customer base usually size up.

Does it rub between the toes?

No. There is no toe post on this construction, so there is nothing between the toes and no break-in period.

Can I wear it with socks?

You can, but the pierced panel grips a sock and the openings print through. It is designed for bare feet.

How do I clean the lattice?

Rinse and work a soft brush across the openings, then dry away from direct sun. Do not use a hard brush on the pierced panel.

How many colours are available?

Four: black, cream, coffee and pink. All four run on the same mould.

What sizes are available?

EU 36-41 as standard. Other runs are reviewed against mould availability.

How heavy is a pair?

Around 400 g for the standard run, confirmed against your specification on order.

Can you print my logo?

Yes. The footbed takes a print, and the sole side can be debossed.

What are the payment terms?

30% deposit, 70% against copy of shipping documents.

What is the price term?

EXW Wuchuan as standard. FOB and CIF are quoted on request.

How many pairs fit in a 20GP?

1,800 to 3,600 pairs, depending on whether the order ships in poly bags or inner boxes.

Can I mix colors in one container?

Yes, at agreed ratios across the four colourways.

Is the upper real leather?

No. It is PVC, so it wipes clean, takes no rain marks and needs no conditioning.

Will colors match between orders?

Upper colour is held against an approved standard swatch, and each batch is checked before packing.

What is the defect standard?

AQL 2.5 on major defects, with the finished defect rate held under 0.5%.
