PRODUCT QUALITY
Product quality is key, and this will be determined by the fabric used and the ability of the seamstress. As the manufacturer we have complete control over the entire process, resulting in high quality products and peace of mind for you as the customer. We benefit from extensive experience of working with other suppliers who use a variety of fabrics.
This knowledge has allowed us to select what we believe is the best fabric in terms of quality, durability and design for our range.
Our modern, technical fabrics draw moisture away from the body. Being made of high-tech polyester, they absorb very little water from the outside in comparison to more traditional fabrics, such as cotton. The wicking fabric draws sweat and moisture from the skin, keeping the wearer cool. These fabrics are designed for colour fastness and durability.
Ethical Statement
Nite & Day Clothing believes that business should be conducted with total respect for people and the environment. We adopt a rigorous selection process for garment manufacturers and fabric suppliers, ensuring only those that are totally committed to exceeding our ethical standards become appointed suppliers.
We have never purchased from a supplier that we haven’t inspected and approved personally. We employ local agents and staff based in our garment factories whose sole focus is to ensure total compliance of our ethical standards for suppliers and to test fabric and finished garments prior to despatch.
