Brand Support & Sourcing
Shoe brands rarely buy shoes alone. The footbed, the box, the shoe bag and the socks are part of what the customer opens — and part of what your team has to source. As a footwear manufacturer, we have developed and produced all four for our footwear clients: custom insoles, packaging, sports bags and sports accessories, made in specialist factories in our network and shipped with your shoes — one manufacturer and supplier instead of four.
What is DOING Brand Support & Sourcing?
DOING is an OEM/ODM footwear manufacturer in Quanzhou, China that also manufactures complementary products for its footwear clients — custom insoles and footbeds, footwear packaging, sports bags and sports accessories. They are made in specialist factories in DOING’s network, checked by DOING QC and shipped together with the footwear order.
Product lines
Four complementary lines, coordinated with your footwear
Custom Insoles & Footbeds Manufacturer
The footbed is the part of the shoe your customer feels first.
EVA insoles · PU foam insoles · Cork footbeds · Ergonomic footbeds · Removable comfort insoles · Custom moulded footbeds

Packaging is where a footwear brand meets its customer before the shoe does.
Custom shoe boxes · Branded dust bags · Tissue paper · Hangtags & labels · Shoe packaging inserts · Retail packaging sets

A shoe bag or a gym duffel extends a footwear collection into a range.

View sports bags →Custom Sports Accessories Manufacturer
Socks, spare laces and shoe-care items are the small products that complete a footwear range — and the add-on sales a retail customer actually takes home.

One partner, coordinated sourcing, consistent quality
One partner
One contact for your shoes and the products that go with them — one set of samples to approve, one inspection plan, one shipment schedule.
Coordinated sourcing
Items are specified against your footwear: footbeds to your lasts, boxes to your size run, shoe bags to your pair dimensions — so they fit the first time.
Consistent quality
Complementary items go through the same pre-shipment inspection discipline as our footwear, with your approved samples as the reference.
How it works
From brief to one shipment
- Brief — Send the items you need, quantities, target market and any artwork, drawings or reference samples.
- Specification — We turn the brief into a written spec per item — material, construction, size, colour, branding and packing — and confirm it with you.
- Sampling — Samples are made by the supplier best suited to the item and reviewed by our team before they are sent to you.
- Approval — You approve the samples; the approved sample and spec become the reference for production and inspection.
- Production & QC — Production is followed by our team, with inspection against the approved sample before goods leave the supplier.
- Consolidation & export — Where schedules allow, items are packed and shipped with your footwear order, with one set of export documents.
Who makes what
Manufacturer, factories and one accountable supplier
We are a footwear manufacturer that also manufactures the complementary products our footwear clients need. Here is exactly who does what — buyers deserve to know who is accountable.
| Footwear | Own factory in Quanzhou plus a selected partner network (China), partner factories in Vietnam, Bangladesh, Cambodia and Myanmar. |
|---|---|
| Insoles, packaging, bags, accessories | Developed and produced for our footwear clients in specialist factories in our network — insole, packaging, bag and sock factories. |
| Specification, sampling review, QC, consolidation, export | DOING team — for every item, whichever factory makes it. |
Insoles, packaging, bags and accessories have been developed and produced for our footwear clients as a complementary service. They are manufactured in specialist factories in our network — dedicated insole, packaging, bag and sock factories — while DOING runs development, sampling, quality control and shipment, so you deal with one manufacturer and supplier for your footwear and everything that goes with it.
FAQ
Brand support — buyer questions
Do you manufacture insoles, packaging, bags and accessories?
Yes. We have developed and produced all four lines for our footwear clients as a complementary service. They are manufactured in specialist factories in our network — insole, packaging, bag and sock factories — rather than on our shoe lines, and DOING runs development, sampling, quality control and shipment.
Can I order these items without ordering shoes from you?
Yes. Most clients order them together with their footwear because sampling, inspection and shipping are combined, but stand-alone orders are welcome too — tell us the item, quantity and market and we will quote it.
What are the minimum order quantities?
They depend on the item, material and branding method — a printed shoe box and a knitted sock have very different set-up costs. We confirm MOQ per item after reviewing your specification rather than quoting a generic number.
Can these items ship together with my footwear?
Yes, where the production schedules line up. Consolidating complementary items into the same shipment as your footwear usually simplifies documentation and freight; we plan the timing at the specification stage.
Do you offer sportswear?
Not on this site at the moment. Our brand-support range covers insoles and footbeds, footwear packaging, sports bags and sports accessories.
