Melton Wool Fabric with Chrome Plating for Shirts
This melton wool 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 chrome plating surface, the 360 gsm and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps shirts 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 reorders that quietly changed supplier and changed the hand feel, or a zipper puller that broke under pull test at the warehouse. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
