Low-Profile Slide Manufacturer — L1045

Rectangular buckles, low sole profile for brand collections

Low-Profile Slide Manufacturer — model L1045, developed for footwear brands, wholesalers and importers.

L1045 combines two rectangular buckles with a low-profile backless shape. It gives men’s buyers a hardware-led option without the visual weight of a deep platform sidewall. The straightforward upper layout is suited to a development brief that prioritises proportion and a consistent trim finish.

Keep the low-profile outline central when developing hardware and colour options for this slide.

Construction review: rectangular buckles, low sole profile

Compare the distance between the two straps with the exposed forefoot area. Each buckle should be assessed for placement as well as finish, because even a small change can alter the balance of the top view. Confirm the final material specification during sampling; the visual reference alone does not establish it.

Material specification for L1045

For L1045, start material development with the approved shape and your target specification. Send the preferred upper finish, interior requirements and intended positioning with the sample request. The relevant comparison point is how the proposed material works with rectangular buckles, low sole profile; approve that relationship on a finished sample before settling the order specification.

Colours and variant specifications

L1045 is listed in Soft Black. Choose the colour SKUs for your sample request and keep each material specification attached to its own code. Physical swatches and the approved sample establish the final colour reference.

EU / US sizing and custom development

Size reference: BGLL1045DU2BT5

US sizes are approximate; confirm fit with samples.

Need EU 45, 46, 47 or another size outside the listed range? Shark Imperator supports custom size development, including new lasts and outsole moulds where required. We can adjust last shape, width, instep volume and toe allowance to your target market’s fit requirements. Send your size chart, foot measurements or reference last for assessment. Extended sizes are custom development options, not existing stock; tooling cost and development timing are quoted separately.

Private-label development for L1045

Start by confirming the upper and sole requirements, then compare buckle finishes against the agreed material samples. Our team can review branding on the strap surfaces and discuss custom packaging, with the final sample bringing material selection, strap proportions and the chosen hardware together for review by your buying team.

Shark Imperator works with footwear brands, wholesalers and importers on OEM, ODM and private-label projects. Send your technical drawing or marked-up reference with the changes you want to this model. Logo method and placement, hardware, material substitutions and packaging are reviewed against the selected construction before the sample specification is agreed.

Sample review for L1045

For the development sample, review two rectangular buckles, open toe and low-profile backless shape as a complete construction. Mark the points to retain and the points to change on the L1045 reference image. This keeps the sample team working from the same version of the design and lets your buyers compare the revision against a defined brief rather than an unrelated catalogue sample.

Order planning and production terms

Confirm the agreed specification and schedule with your quotation. Delivery terms, freight, packaging requirements and any buyer-requested inspection or testing should be stated in the enquiry. Production timing does not include international transit.

Discuss your L1045 project

To develop L1045, send the selected colour SKUs, quantities by size, destination market and a marked-up reference showing your proposed changes. Use rectangular buckles, low sole profile as the design reference when describing the revision. Include logo artwork and packaging references where available. Our team can review the brief, arrange sample development and prepare an OEM/ODM quotation.
