Sherpa Fabric with Powder Coating for Caps
This sherpa 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 powder coating surface, the 110 gsm and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps caps 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 a spec that lived in an email instead of a tech pack. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
