Elastic Cord with Rainbow Iridescent Finish for Sneakers
This elastic 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 rainbow iridescent finish surface, the 12 mm Width and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps sneakers 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 MOQ that was quoted per colourway rather than per style. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
