Coated Fabric with Silicone Wash Finish for Socks
This coated 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 silicone wash finish surface, the 280 gsm and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps socks 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 elastic that lost recovery after three washes, 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.
