Woven Elastic with Black Nickel Finish for Gloves
This woven elastic is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the black nickel finish surface, the 10# Gauge and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps gloves 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 a spec that lived in an email instead of a tech pack, or MOQ that was quoted per colourway rather than per style. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.

FAQ
Can you match a physical sample?
Yes. Send the reference and we reverse engineer the specification, then produce a counter sample for approval before any bulk commitment.
Which compliance documents do you provide?
Bluesign documentation is issued with the shipment. Test reports can be ordered against any additional standard you nominate.
How long does sampling take?
14 working days for the first sample, with 5 days per revision round. Plated or dyed-to-match items add a few days.
Do you hold stock for reorders?
Approved specifications are kept on file and, for repeat programmes, base material can be reserved against a rolling forecast.
