Taslan Fabric Sourcing Program for Footwear Manufacturers: Trousers
Taslan Fabric Programme for Footwear Manufacturers: Trousers
This programme covers the full path from a taslan fabric requirement to a repeatable bulk supply for footwear manufacturers. Instead of buying whatever a catalogue happens to stock, you specify the base material, the 360 gsm, the finish and the packing, and we hold that specification so every reorder matches the last one. It is built around trousers, which is where most of the specification detail sits.
The most common failure in taslan fabric sourcing is not price — it is drift. A base material changes mill, the shade moves, a plating bath changes and the item quietly stops matching the approved sample. We prevent that with a written spec, an approved counter sample and a golden sample retained at the factory.
What the programme covers
- Specification build from your tech pack or a physical reference sample
- Base material and finish options with costed alternatives
- Sampling, testing and approval against ISO 12947 Abrasion Resistance
- Bulk production with in-line inspection and photo reporting
- Packing, documentation and shipment under the agreed Incoterm
Recommended specifications
- Rubber — best balance of cost, availability and test performance
- Genuine Leather — used when strength and abrasion resistance come first
- Wood — used when strength and abrasion resistance come first
- TPU — best balance of cost, availability and test performance

FAQ
How long does sampling take?
7 working days for the first sample, with 3 days per revision round. Plated or dyed-to-match items add a few days.

Standard terms are a deposit with the order and the balance before shipment, under EXW / FOB / CIF / DDP as agreed.
What is the minimum order quantity?
Standard MOQ is 1000 per style per colour. Mixed colourways can be combined on the same spec if the base material is identical.
Which compliance documents do you provide?
ISO 12947 Abrasion Resistance documentation is issued with the shipment. Test reports can be ordered against any additional standard you nominate.
Tell us the item, the quantity and the delivery window. We will quote it with the sub-processes named, so the lead time you approve is the lead time you get.
