Typical Pre-Pack Structure
- Standard Carton Count: Most master footwear cartons hold 6, 12, or 18 pairs of a single style and color. A 12-pair case is the industry norm for adult shoes.
- The Bell-Curve Ratio: Instead of an equal number of every size, shipments follow a statistical bell curve reflecting the population. For example, a standard 12-pair men's pre-pack often looks like this:
- Size 8: 1 pair
- Size 8.5: 1 pair
- Size 9: 2 pairs
- Size 9.5: 2 pairs
- Size 10: 2 pairs
- Size 10.5: 2 pairs
- Size 11: 1 pair
- Size 12: 1 pair
- High-Volume Skews: The highest quantities cluster around the most common demographic averages (e.g., sizes 9–10.5 for men and 7–8 for women), while outlier sizes like very small or very large dimensions appear as single pairs or require solid-size (bulk) reorders.
