Rib Knit Fabric with Yarn-Dyed Finish for Trousers
This rib knit 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 320 gsm and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps trousers 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 elastic that lost recovery after three washes. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
