Jersey Knit Fabric with Gunmetal Finish for Activewear
This jersey knit fabric is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The fabric construction is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the gunmetal finish surface, the 360 gsm and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps activewear consistent across seasons instead of drifting with whatever the mill happens to have in stock.
The usual reason buyers come to us is not price. It is shrinkage that only showed up after the first wash, or a spec that lived in an email instead of a tech pack. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
