Our clients, who previously worked with wool fabrics, are now transitioning to more value-aligned alternatives and have selected polyester wool-like fabric in melange colors. We are arranging expedited shipping to a garment factory in Bangladesh for sample development.

White wool-polyester loop pile fabric tends to reveal the base layer easily and is prone to staining, which presents certain challenges in production.

Double-faced woolen-style checkered fabric: a client inquired about the lack of a shiny effect on the surface. I recommended applying a brushing finish to achieve a subtle sheen and a smoother hand feel.

Currently, most of our clients' orders require the use of recycled polyester. Moreover, European clients demand traceability—meaning the recycled polyester raw materials must include tracer agents. Making false claims is becoming increasingly difficult.

Our initial samples utilizing printed sherpa fabric have resulted in some really attractive designs.

Herringbone knitted fabric featuring a dual-sided construction: herringbone pattern on one side and a needle-punched solid color effect on the other.

One is piece dyeing, the other is top dyeing. The customer opted for top dyeing, primarily due to concerns about color fastness. This reminded me of a recent composite sherpa fabric order where the fabric had to be completely remade because of poor staining fastness.

Full wool herringbone sample handover — the client finds the handfeel too rough. I explained that this sample was made with 58/60s wool skein. For a softer handfeel, bulk orders can use 64s wool skein, though the cost would be higher.

Textured Jacquard Knit Fabrics, showcasing intricate patterns and tactile craftsmanship.

One is needle punching, the other is smooth brushing. They offer different hand feels, with the smooth brushing fabric commanding a higher price.

For fabrics made of 100% polyester or polyester/wool blends, customers have requested adding acrylic fiber to the composition. They believe this can improve the handfeel and enhance pilling resistance.

Brushed fabric, primarily composed of polyester. Thrilled to share that the sample garment turned out great!

100% wool knitwear, crafted from premium quality materials that are soft and comfortable to the touch.

Clients request samples almost daily, but only a few actually place orders. Yet, we keep pushing samples forward—it’s all about the funnel principle. Consistent filtering is how we eventually strike gold.

When clients find double-faced wool coating too expensive and request a switch, I recommend single-faced wool coating as a cost-effective alternative—offering competitive pricing.

The client requires the 100% polyester looped fabric to have consistent loop shape, size, and flatness compared to the original sample. It's quite a stringent requirement. After analysis, we believe the original sample appears so flat likely due to compression from being rolled.

Made with fine-gauge Merino wool—used sparingly yet effectively blended with other fibers in a single jersey construction, offering a soft-to-the-touch feel and completely free from any coarseness.

Melange fabric, with a weight of over 400 GSM, ideal for outerwear.

Plaid flannel with wool blend, but clients find it pricey? We can adjust the composition to reduce wool content.
