Leather Patch with Glossy Enamel Coating for Swimwear
This leather patch is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the glossy enamel coating surface, the 12 mm Width and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps swimwear 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 MOQ that was quoted per colourway rather than per style, or a spec that lived in an email instead of a tech pack. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
