Shock Cord with Yarn-Dyed Finish for Underwear
This shock cord is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the yarn-dyed finish surface, the 3# Gauge and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps underwear 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 cartons packed to the factory ratio instead of the buyer's size ratio. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
