About the difference in shoe quality
The first "currency"
is the cheapest product on the market, a junk version, priced at more than 100, which can only be seen from a distance. It is produced by a small workshop, and the difference is obvious , the workmanship is very rough. The favorite of unscrupulous merchants.
The second type of "real standard"
is basically the craftsmanship of a small factory. The Putian shoes cost more than 200 yuan, which is just a product that just passes the passing line. The clothes are definitely adequate, but there is still a big gap between the appearance of the company and the pure appearance. A layman can still observe if they identify carefully, for example, the logo on the shoes is cut corners, the tailor's stitching is rough, and the foot feel is poor.
The third "corporate level"
I believe many people have heard of it. This is the Internet language created by Putian people. The workmanship is much better than the former, and the cost is also the Putian shoe version of about 200.300. As the name suggests, these qualities will be very close to the genuine products, or even on par with them. However, if you look closely, there will still be differences. The precision is not enough, the machine polishing is not refined enough, and they are mainly distributed to Taobao micro-business customer groups.
The fourth type of "pure original"
shoes has a higher degree of restoration. It is made from top domestic molds and purely imported materials. It will be made according to the materials, wiring and processes of the real shoes after disassembly.
The fifth type of "top pure original/original order
. As the name suggests, the highest version on the market, pure original imported molds. Pure original imported materials have reached the level of competing with original factory orders. These versions are customized from original shoe molds and are almost identical. Even the formal inspection channels are indistinguishable. These are the top versions of Putian shoes starting from 500.600.
Therefore: the shoe market is very chaotic, and it is important to find the right seller with good conscience.
Shoddy goods are used for greater benefits. There are a lot of people out there, and you can’t find a few out of 10,000. Who is not out for profit? The boss has a conscience and will give you good goods. The boss is unscrupulous and will send you junk goods. Most buyers are cheated. Good sellers don’t know how to cheat. Spending money on shoes will end up giving you a whole currency. I personally have nothing to say about this kind of sellers. I won’t criticize the Jianqian platform.
The supply of Putian shoes can be roughly divided into four categories. Local stores
1. Local stalls:
refers to direct delivery stalls from factories. You can find this Baidu or local sources, large and small stalls. According to the local estimate, there are about 2,000 stalls, and the wholesale stalls are estimated to be about 100-200. These stalls generally do not accept orders for dropshipping, but they can accept dropshipping orders for , basically. They mainly distribute goods to secondary stalls and do not sell directly to the outside world.
2. Wholesaler:
refers to the shoes sold by major factory stores, which are all put into wholesalers, and wholesalers distribute the shoes to various stores. Stalls.
3. Various micro-businesses:
forward pictures everywhere and report them to stalls and wholesalers. It is conceivable that if a pair of shoes sells for 500 to 600 yuan, the price difference from the middleman is too much. There are many.
4. Special factory channels:
Finally, Putian shoes are better. I have been working in major factories in Putian for many years and have strong personal connections, so I can directly connect with the factory and go to the factory to pick the goods in person. The shipment volume is small, and they are all top quality (there are no more than ten people like Putian, and the better Putian shoes are one)
Finally, I emphasize one point: those who say they are all factory-sourced are basically liars. The shoes produced by the factory are so big, it is not. Maybe I will ship them to you one by one, selling stock goods under the name of factory store.
is about the same. I have been doing this for many years. When I first started doing it, many people said I was stupid and didn’t have enough money. Grab it. Everyone buys , Mercedes-Benz, , and , BMW, and . I still go electric, but now that a few years have passed, my reputation for quality and repurchase status have been stable, and many of my peers have left. Because in addition to the pure original version, the lowest version is
, which is about the same. I have been doing this for many years. When I first started doing it, many people said that I was stupid and didn’t grab money.Everyone buys Mercedes-Benz or BMW, but I still go electric. But now that a few years have passed, my reputation for Sifang's quality and repurchase standing are stable, and many of my colleagues around me have come and gone. Because in addition to pure original version, we are also at the company level at the lowest level, and the market is very chaotic. For example, I will compare the products of many factories, and emphasize the factory. Before shipping, a dedicated person will repair the shoes, such as threads, overflowing glue, and shoes. If there are problems like glue on the body, stains, slight glue opening, etc., if it can be issued, there is no problem. In a simple word, I give you a high price, which is to pay for quality, service and after-sales. I also hope that my peers can see this. , the low price will indeed lead to two or three more pairs in the early stage, but what should be considered is the customer's after-sales service and your "zero" repeat customers. When you send it out, there will be a large proportion of after-sales or customer loss. A conscientious merchant will definitely choose the best quality among the many factory goods for you while ensuring profits, and will not pass off shoddy goods. There is a lot to say, but I just hope that everyone in the industry will be professional and down-to-earth to provide a pair of good-quality fake shoes to some friends who love shoes. Xiao Ming is also here to thank the new and old customers who have come along the way. Sincerely thank you
