The safest first order is not the largest range. Build a focused padel collection, sample the highest-risk products first, and keep enough flexibility for staff, members, tournaments and retail.
Player apparel, coach or staff uniforms, tournament merchandise and pro-shop retail may all have different quantities. List each use case separately so a supplier can recommend realistic production routes instead of forcing one MOQ across the whole project.
For a new club range, start with a small core such as one technical top, one bottom, one cap or visor and one optional lifestyle item. Fewer SKUs make sampling, color approval and stock planning easier.
Prioritize items where fit, fabric feel or print placement matters most. A technical top or fitted bottom usually deserves more attention than a simple accessory because a poor fit can affect the whole launch.
Confirm fabric, fit, color, logo size, decoration method, labels and packing during sampling. Treat the approved sample as the reference for bulk production and future reorders.
Staff apparel is usually a known need, while retail demand is uncertain. Keep the retail range tighter on the first order and use repeat-order planning rather than overbuying every color and size.
Share products, approximate quantity per item, player versus staff quantities, retail plans, logos, target date, delivery country and whether you expect repeat orders. This gives the supplier enough context to recommend the lowest-risk structure.
