Voice of the expert
“Jeans are the most commonly returned garments purchased online, and the majority of denim returns are style or fit related. Some of these issues can be linked to seam slippage, which leads to consumer dissatisfaction with the quality or aesthetics of the product. With LYCRA® Anti-Slip fiber, consumers can have super stretch jeans that last longer, while maintaining optimal fit and shape.”
