Melton Wool Fabric with Yarn-Dyed Finish for Sportswear
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 yarn-dyed finish surface, the 140 gsm and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps sportswear 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 compliance document that arrived after the goods were already shipped. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
