Ripstop Nylon Fabric with UV Printing for Footwear
This ripstop nylon 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 uv printing surface, the 180 gsm and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps footwear 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 shade drift between the approved lab dip and the bulk lot, or reorders that quietly changed supplier and changed the hand feel. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
