Broad-Strap Slide Manufacturer — A1626

Broad leather panels and open heel for brand collections

Broad-Strap Slide Manufacturer — model A1626, developed for footwear brands, wholesalers and importers.

A1626 translates a broad overlap-panel upper into a backless slide with a low sole profile. The simple architecture gives men’s brands room to work with top-grain cow leather finishes. It can complement a backstrap sandal in the same range while offering a clearly different rear construction.

Develop a broad-panel leather slide with a restrained profile and a clearly planned branding location.

Construction review: broad leather panels and open heel

Review the strap overlap from above and the amount of sole visible below it. Keep proposed branding outside the hidden panel area and compare both strap edges before approving production.

Material specification for A1626

Upper choices for A1626 include top-grain cow leather and cow split leather; select the exact colour SKU when requesting a sample. The exposed strap areas make surface and edge finish important approval points. Compare the material where it bends, overlaps or meets hardware, then retain the chosen finished panel with the colour reference. Any proposed material change should be checked on the strap layout rather than accepted from a small swatch alone. Outsole specification: rubber. Specify the required surface treatment; a split-leather grade does not itself establish a suede finish.

Colours and variant specifications

A1626 is listed in Yellow, 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.

Extended sizes are custom development options, not existing stock; tooling cost and development timing are quoted separately.

Private-label development for A1626

A material-led development brief can compare how your chosen colours and logo treatment work on each leather option. We can review the overlap line and strap proportions before sampling, with the selected material, branding and packaging recorded as one coordinated direction for your brand.

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.

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.
