Hemp Fabric with Powder Coating for Sneakers
This hemp 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 powder coating surface, the 160 gsm and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps sneakers 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 shade drift between the approved lab dip and the bulk lot, or elastic that lost recovery after three washes. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
