Seersucker Fabric with Gunmetal Finish for Activewear
This seersucker 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 gunmetal finish surface, the 80 gsm and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps activewear 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 reorders that quietly changed supplier and changed the hand feel. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
