Heat Transfer Vinyl with Matte Black Coating for Footwear
This heat transfer vinyl is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the matte black coating surface, the 25 mm Width 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 an interlining that bubbled after the first press, or lead time quoted without the plating or dyeing sub-process. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
