Printed Label with Rainbow Iridescent Finish for Socks
This printed label 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 10# Gauge and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps socks 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 a zipper puller that broke under pull test at the warehouse. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
