Shank Button with Piece-Dyed Finish for Boots
This shank button is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the piece-dyed finish surface, the 8# Gauge and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps boots 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 compliance document that arrived after the goods were already shipped, or a zipper puller that broke under pull test at the warehouse. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.

FAQ
Which compliance documents do you provide?
CPSIA documentation is issued with the shipment. Test reports can be ordered against any additional standard you nominate.
What are the payment and delivery terms?
Standard terms are a deposit with the order and the balance before shipment, under EXW / FOB / CIF / DDP as agreed.
What happens if a bulk lot fails inspection?
The lot is reworked or remade at our cost. Inspection reports are shared before the balance payment is due.
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.
Send the reference sample or tech pack and we will come back with a costed specification, a sampling timetable and the compliance documents your market requires.
