For overseas buyers: key parameters, MOQ, sampling, certification, logistics and settlement.
50+ years of sock-making with a complete chain — spinning, knitting, dyeing, boarding, packing and e-commerce logistics, all within the town. By end-2025: 188 hosiery enterprises, 2 above-scale, regional brand value above RMB 1.8bn. Fifth-generation machines with auto toe-closing give flat seams, richer patterns and same-day boarding and packing.
State: gauge (144N/168N/200N), yarn composition (combed/carded cotton, bamboo, blends and ratios), weight per pair, size range, sock type, finishing (jacquard, print, embroidery, anti-slip dots, antibacterial), packaging and number of colorways. More precision means a more accurate quote.
Usually 1,000–3,000 pairs per style/color; complex patterns or special yarns require more. Sampling takes 7–15 days (15–30 for complex). Sample fees are often credited to the bulk order — confirm in writing.
For Europe, request OEKO-TEX or equivalent test reports; for children's products check azo and formaldehyde limits. Leading factories hold basic EU/US/JP certification. Online video audits and on-site audits can be arranged.
Bulk orders take 25–45 days depending on volume and complexity; plan ahead in peak season. Shipments to Russia go by sea/rail to major hubs, or via cross-border e-commerce; transit time and cost depend on destination and volume.
Typically deposit + balance (e.g. 30/70), balance before shipment or against B/L copy. For Russia, settle through compliant banking channels in RMB or an agreed currency, with FX and risk terms stated in the contract.
① Comparing price only — very low quotes often mean downgraded yarn; ② no sealed sample — keep a signed confirmation sample; ③ vague specs cause shade and hand-feel deviation; ④ ignoring import-country labeling rules; ⑤ verbal agreements — put MOQ, price, lead time, quality standard and liability in the contract.
It varies: standard cotton socks usually start at 1,000–3,000 pairs per style/color; complex jacquard or special yarns require more. The platform matches your quantity with a suitable factory; consolidated orders are possible.
