Quick answer
Ask which colors and sizes are available for the exact code, then request the chart, unit, measurement points, tolerance, material, and whether the dimensions describe the body, finished product, or packaging.

Identify the variant before asking for a chart
Start with the direct link and product code. Add the material or construction version because two visually similar listings may use different measurements, stretch, hardware, sole, or packaging.
If the source cannot tie the chart to the exact variant, keep the sizing field unresolved.
Ask for colors as named and pictured options
Request the current color names or codes and one recent reference image for the exact product. Screen color, lighting, white balance, and compression can alter appearance, so treat images as evidence with limits.
For mixed-color orders, ask whether MOQ applies per color and whether substitutions require approval.
Build a category-specific measurement sheet
| Category | Useful measurements | Method question |
|---|---|---|
| Wholesale clothing | Chest or width, body length, sleeve, shoulder, waist, rise, and inseam as relevant. | Garment flat, body recommendation, or another method? |
| Wholesale shoes | Internal length, size system, width, outsole, heel, and packed dimensions. | Which reference points and which size conversion? |
| Wholesale bags | Width, height, depth, handle drop, strap range, and opening. | Measured empty, filled, or including hardware? |
| Wholesale accessories | Length, width, diameter, circumference, fastening range, or device fit. | Which item version and tolerance? |
Record tolerance instead of demanding false precision
Textiles, flexible materials, manual measurement, and production methods can create variation. Ask what tolerance is stated, which point it applies to, and whether a sample or QC view can show the same method.
A range with a clear method is more useful than an exact-looking number with no reference points.
Use a compact size-and-color request
“For product [code/link] in [material/version], please confirm the current color options and size range. Could you send the matching chart with units, measurement points, and stated tolerance? Please also confirm whether the MOQ applies per color or size and whether sizes can be mixed.”
Keep price attached to the same product code
When you send a product code for price, repeat the material, color mix, size range, quantity, and included pieces. A price received for one variant should not be copied onto another variant merely because the photos look similar.
Save the chart with its source context
- Direct URL and product code.
- Material or construction version.
- Available color names or codes and check date.
- Size chart, unit, measurement points, and tolerance.
- MOQ rule for mixed colors and sizes.
- Reference photos and any missing evidence.
Use measurements in the next decision
Carry the selected variant into the MOQ comparison, request the same measurement points in QC photos, and include the chosen size mix when requesting a shipping estimate.
Common reader questions
How do I ask for available colors?
Name the exact code and material version, request the current color names or codes and reference images, and ask whether MOQ applies per color.
How do I ask for a size chart?
Request the chart tied to the exact code and version, with units, measurement points, method, tolerance, and body-versus-product basis.
How do I send a product code for price?
Repeat the material, color mix, size range, quantity, included pieces, and packaging basis so the reply stays attached to the intended variant.
Which measurements matter for wholesale clothing?
Use garment-specific fields such as chest width, length, sleeve, shoulder, waist, rise, or inseam and record the flat-garment or body method.
Which size details matter for wholesale shoes?
Record the size system, internal length, width, conversion basis, material or construction version, and packed dimensions.
Which dimensions matter for wholesale bags?
Record width, height, depth, handle drop, strap range, opening, empty-versus-filled method, and hardware inclusion.
Which measurements matter for wholesale accessories?
Choose the fields that control fit or compatibility, such as length, diameter, circumference, fastening range, or device dimensions.
How should a wholesale product code be recorded?
Save the exact code with the direct URL, material or construction version, color, size, date, and any source-specific punctuation.
