    How to choose the first style for sampling

    • Start with the buyer’s use case: gym, cycling, tactical, winter, motorcycle, golf or general protection.
    • Decide which function matters most: grip, breathability, protection, warmth, padding, fit or appearance.
    • Use a real product base first, then customize logo, color, material, stitching and packaging.
    • Keep the first sample round focused: one main style, clear material direction and two or three color options.
