RYFT / OBSIDIAN HANG TAG / HT01 / R01 / 12 OCT 2026

SEND THE COMPLETE ZIP TO THE TAG MANUFACTURER.
Status: ready for quotation and sampling; not a released purchase order.

1. Read RYFT-Hang-Tag-Manufacturing-Guide.pdf (10 pages).
   It specifies the proposed 50 x 90 mm tag, RF at 30 x 35.91 mm,
   recessed blind deboss, duplex black board, gray rear print, cord,
   manufacturing sequence, QC, packing, RFQ and approval requirements.

2. Use artwork/*.svg for native outlined production geometry.
   Each SVG has a 50 x 90 mm physical artboard and an upper-left mm origin.
   The RF trace is derived from the approved symbol raster; manufacturer
   must approve its reproducibility before tooling. Do not redraw the mark.
   SVGs import into Illustrator and compatible vector prepress applications.
   Color-coded cut/punch strokes are technical guides, never printed.

3. RYFT-Hang-Tag-1to1-Artwork.pdf is a 4-page vector separation reference.
   Media: 56 x 96 mm; TrimBox: 50 x 90 mm; 3 mm surrounding bleed allowance.
   Print at 100% / actual size, never fit-to-page. Confirm the TrimBox scale.
   Page 1: CUT + PUNCH spot colors - technical tooling only.
   Page 2: BLIND_DEBOSS spot - black positive shapes mean recessed relief.
   Page 3: RYFT_GRAY spot - black positive shapes mean opaque muted gray ink.
   Page 4: FRONT APPEARANCE PROOF ONLY - never output as a printing plate.
   Rear appearance is supplied separately as 05-REAR-COMPOSITE-PROOF.svg.
   Factory creates its own imposition, mirrored die and press-specific files.
   All pages read upright from the face; do not mirror consumer-facing copy.

4. artwork/rear-variants/ contains 24 proposed outlined size/color plates.
   Proposed sizes: XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL.
   Proposed colors: ONYX, OXBLOOD, SILVER, WHITE.
   All use the same black tag/gray ink. Confirm the actual garment assortment.
   Fill and release SKU-ORDER-TEMPLATE.csv with final quantities before order.
   Empty barcode fields do not authorize adding a barcode to the artwork.
   R02, product title and collection are taken from the selected mockup;
   confirm they match the actual garment master data before production.

5. RYFT-Tag-Smaller-Logo-Mockup.png is a visual reference, not tooling art.
   Created with the built-in image-generation tool; prompt saved in
   mockup-generation.json. Vector dimensions govern manufacture.
   references/ includes original selected tag, authoritative symbol raster,
   and a silhouette trace comparison. Keep these for visual verification.

6. BOM.csv, specification.json, REAR-COPY.json and ARTWORK-MANIFEST.json
   support quoting, prepress and revision control.
   RFQ-TO-MANUFACTURER.txt is a ready-to-copy supplier inquiry.
   No inquiry has been sent. No manufacturing order has been placed.

BEFORE BULK RELEASE
Confirm factory capability, actual stock/caliper, opaque gray drawdown,
relief trial, final cord length/caps/knot and attachment method. Approve
front/rear proofs and at least five physical pre-production tags plus one
attached garment sample. Sign and retain the golden sample; complete the
release record and final SKU quantities. Any deviation requires a marked
proof and approval before production. Mockups do not approve material feel.

Manufacturing tolerances and checks in this pack are proposed RYFT
requirements. Machine settings and material certifications are not invented
or pre-approved; the selected factory must document its actual parameters.
