Product Overview

Key Design Features

1. The openings go through the band. Air passes, because the cut-outs are actual holes. A printed or embossed pattern looks similar in a photograph and does nothing for the foot; this is the difference worth stating plainly to a buyer.

2. The frame carries the load, not a single strap. Two rails run along the band with a cross rail between them, so the pull is spread across the frame instead of sitting on one narrow line across the instep.

3. Square studs read as light, not as dots. A round stud gives one highlight; a four-sided stud has four faces, so it catches shop lighting as the pair moves and reads brighter at the same size.

4. Each stud sits on a flat square base. The stud is a moulded four-sided piece seated on a square base rather than driven through as a point, so the band takes the load on a flat face instead of on a pin hole.

5. Studs follow the rails. The studs run along the frame lines rather than being scattered, which keeps the cage geometry readable instead of breaking it up.

6. One colour, used deliberately. Black gloss is what makes the stud contrast work. A second tone would need its own stud and lining decision, not just a colour change.

Why Importers Choose This Product

The cage is what separates it from a plain black slide. Black slides are the most crowded shelf there is. The openings and the stud lines give the pair a silhouette that reads from across an aisle.

It is a first-price-point item with a hardwear look. No buckle, no lining, no heel: the cost sits in one mould and the studs.

Single colour keeps the order simple. One colourway means one colour approval, one carton plan and no ratio negotiation.

It photographs on white. Gloss black with gold studs holds contrast better than a matte finish in the lighting most listings use.

It answers an open-air season. Real cut-outs suit hot, humid markets where a solid band is the complaint.

Factory Overview

Recommended Markets

West and Central Africa — gloss black with gold studs is a standing seller, and the open frame suits a hot season.

Middle East — the studded frame reads as evening wear indoors, which is where the volume sits.

Southeast Asia — real cut-outs matter in humid markets, where a solid band is the usual complaint.

Latin America — the silhouette photographs well for online listings and for street-market display.

Resort and cruise retail — a single black colourway is easy to merchandise without a colour wall.

Packaging

Standard — one pair per poly bag, 30-40 pairs per export carton.

Stud protection — a soft sleeve over the band face keeps the studs from pressing into the pair above.

Gloss protection — pairs are wrapped individually, because gloss black marks against itself in a carton.

Carton marking — size, colour and item number stencilled as agreed.

Hang tag — buyer artwork applied at packing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the openings real holes?

Yes. They go through the band, so air passes and the skin under the band can dry. This is the one point where the pair differs from a band with an embossed pattern, which looks similar in a photograph.

Are the studs sharp?

They are four-sided studs on a square base with a low point, not spikes. They do not press into the foot, because they sit on the outside of the band face. They can still catch a fine knit or a bag strap.

Where will the band fail first?

At the inner corners of the openings, if anything. A sharp corner concentrates stress, which is why the corners are checked for a clean radius and why a worn sample should be inspected there before anywhere else.

Does gloss black show wear?

More than any other finish. Fingerprints show immediately, and the fold line across the instep turns lighter as the band creases. Matte finishes hide this; gloss does not. It is the trade for the stud contrast.

Will the gold wear off the studs?

Plating wears from the highest point, which on a four-sided stud is the tip. It is not a permanent finish, but it sits away from the foot and away from the ground.

Can the band be adjusted?

No. The cage is fixed, so the fit is set by size alone.

Does the cage fit narrow or wide feet?

The frame spreads load more evenly than a single strap, which suits a higher instep better than a thin band. It is not a wide-fit last, so a buyer serving a broad fit should check the sample on a wearer first.

Is there more than one colour?

No. Black is the only colourway in the current run. A second tone is a development enquiry, because the stud and lining decision changes with it.

What sizes are available?

EU 36-41. 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. Printed on the footbed or the sole side.

Will the footbed print wear?

It sits under the heel, so the heel area goes first. A gloss footbed shows the print loss more than a matte one.

What is the minimum order quantity?

1,800 pairs in one size range. Because there is only one colour, no colour ratio has to be agreed.

What is the lead time?

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

Can I get a sample first?

Yes, and check two things on it: the four inner corners of the openings, and the gloss under a side light rather than straight on. The sample fee is refundable against the bulk order.

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.

Is the sole hard or soft?

It is a thin, flat moulded PVC outsole. It is a flat, not a cushioned footbed, and the pair is built to be light rather than soft underfoot.

How do I keep the gloss looking new?

Wipe with a damp cloth and avoid solvent cleaners, which dull the surface. Pack pairs individually in store so they do not scuff against each other.
