Order-stage decisions

Choose timing around footwear risks

Earlier workmanship visibility and finished-goods assortment checks answer different questions.

During production

Earlier review may help when repeated stitching, assembly or finish issues could affect more pairs.

Before shipment

PSI may review selected finished pairs, assortment, labels and packing when a suitable lot is ready.

At loading

Loading observation provides package and quantity information with limited access to individual footwear.

Boundaries

Visual checks, sampling and specialist tests

Visual and basic onsite checks do not prove material composition, restricted-substance compliance, sole bond strength, slip resistance, abrasion performance, chemical safety or certification.

Dimensions depend on an agreed method, suitable conditions and buyer tolerances.

Sampling cannot guarantee every pair or every size and colour in the shipment.

Findings relate to accessible goods and references at the inspection time.
