Reporter Cao Gang
"If the cashmere sweaters in the mall are two or three hundred dollars are genuine goods, Allah can only drink the northwest wind." At noon yesterday, the reporter in a city of cashmere clothing Co., Ltd., met the general manager Xie Cheng (a pseudonym), he is Talking about two businesses at the same time with the PHS. Winter is approaching and he is in the busiest time.
Some people likened cashmere to "soft gold," but "gold prices" made many ordinary people unable to understand. Xie Cheng said: "Gold sells silver for? Because there is copper inside."
Cheap trap cashmere sweater as sweater sells
"Cashmere Festival" "Special Offer" "30% Off", a block of billboard bullets landed in the door of major businesses.
In the store, cashmere sweater counters, customers are endless.
"Pure cashmere sweater, promotional price, 260 yuan a!" Salesperson's cries are full of temptation. There, "whole cashmere, 200 yuan / piece" label impressively, charm is difficult to stop. Both high-end nearly 2,000 yuan Products, there are also 200 yuan cheap goods, each counter is similar, and most claim to be "100% cashmere."
Are all cashmere, why is the difference so big? Can cashmere sweaters really sell sweaters?
"As long as you know the cost price of a genuine pure cashmere sweater, you will naturally understand the mystery." Xie Cheng counted an account -
Cashmere raw material prices, about 1,000 yuan per kilogram, to do a cashmere sweater, the average material 250 grams. This item will be 250 yuan.
After processing, dyeing and other processes, made into a garment, processing costs at least 50 yuan.
Together with the counter rental, business staff, even if you do not earn a penny, the cost price will have to be around 400 yuan.
For discount sales, the manufacturers explained nothing more than these: broken code, outdated style, clean inventory. Xie smiled slightly, some disapproved: "break code? Most situations are done look, anyway, the number you want is always Continuously. As for the old models and inventory, there are so many quantities and it will not be so cheap."
Xie Cheng suddenly asked: "Businessmen, who are willing to easily 'cut the meat'? Also cut at each counter?"
Cashmere ingredients to make real flowers through
Buying cashmere sweaters, many people are most concerned about prices. But as a result, they did not understand the depths of the traps until they jumped into the "low price trap."
Ms. Wang bought a pure cashmere sweater for 398 yuan and sent it for inspection. As a result, the cashmere content was 78%, and the wool content was 22%. It was unqualified. She heard several more exaggerated cases from the inspection department: the marked cashmere content was 60%. The actual test shrinks to 0.6%; the cashmere content is 72.8%, and the test result shows that the cashmere content is 0.
According to the “Management Measures for the Use of Natural Fiber Content Markers (Interim)†issued by China in 1996, pure cashmere products are allowed to contain not more than 5% non-cashmere animal hair fibers, and no other fibers are allowed. In other words, pure cashmere products The cashmere content should be at least 95%.
"For technical reasons, the amount of cashmere can not reach 100%, but there is an unwritten rule in the industry: as long as there is more than 95% cashmere, can be marked as 100%." ​​Xie Cheng revealed that less than 400 yuan cashmere sweater, very There may be insufficient ingredients. "There are many places where you can do things."
Doped
Mixed with wool or other chemical fiber components, the price is naturally cheaper than cashmere. Ordinary wool is about 100 yuan per kilogram, chemical fiber products are cheaper, and some are less than 10 yuan per kilogram. Substandard, the cost difference is 10 times, the profit space is amazing .
thin
Making a cashmere sweater generally requires 250 grams of raw materials. However, if you cut corners, you can make 200 grams or even 175 grams, or you can feel thin.
add
It is particularly soft, it is an important symbol to distinguish cashmere, but sometimes it is not. Add a lot of softener in the wool, it feels very soft and smooth feel. These softeners are not only cheap but also harmful to humans.
Concept game does not have "sheep cashmere" at all
Not long ago, Mr. Lee spent more than 500 yuan to buy a cashmere sweater. The salesperson said it was "sheep cashmere" and also told him that "sheep cashmere and cashmere are only different sources, there is no essential difference in performance."
The result was less than one week old. The clothes were balled up in a large area and there was a prickle sensation close to the skin. Mr. Li was puzzled: "Is it that the cashmere sweater of the sheep is a cashmere sweater?"
"In fact, there is no 'sheep velvet' and 'sheep velvet' is an ordinary sheep's wool. This is a term used by someone to play with concepts and make them out." Xie Cheng frankly said, "In the early years, there was a colleague who made a fuss about this concept. I was so timid and I didn't play."
According to the relevant national standards, cashmere refers specifically to cashmere. In order to keep out the cold, the goat grows a layer of fluff on the surface of the skin in the winter and falls off automatically in spring. Only goats have cashmere, and sheep only produce wool without producing cashmere.
"The so-called 'sheep velvet' is at best more fine than ordinary wool, and it is far from a grade for cashmere products." Xie Cheng revealed that usually a goat produces 200g of cashmere per year, while a sheep produces 2-3% of hair every year. In kilograms, the price difference between the two is 10 times. Each piece of wool sweater weighs about 500 grams, and the price is based on the price of the item; cashmere sweaters generally weigh 200 grams to 300 grams each and are priced in grams.
Authentic cashmere sweaters also play a role in quality problems
The value of the thousand cashmere sweater, began to play after the purchase of 1 month. After testing, it has indeed reached 95% of the amount of cashmere, other indicators are also qualified.
Why is cashmere sweater playing faster than a sweater? Isn't it a quality problem?
"A lot of people think that as long as the ball is played, it is a quality problem. In fact, it's normal to have a little ball. Some people think that cashmere sweaters are more expensive than sweaters. They should be more wearable than sweaters. In fact, cashmere sweaters themselves are Cardigans are easier to play."
Xie Cheng introduced that cashmere sweaters are characterized by fine fibers, soft and smooth. In order to give full play to these characteristics, the process has been specially added to the velvety process. The fibers in the yarn are “shrinked†out and covered on the tissue surface of the cashmere sweater. Feel is softer. Therefore, it is necessary to have a layer of fluff on the surface of the cashmere sweater. "It can be imagined that as long as it is in contact with and rubs against the cashmere sweater, the fluff on the surface will become entangled with each other and become a small ball. In general, with Handcuffs will be dropped on the line, which will not affect the wearing effect. "Xie Cheng said," Pills on cashmere sweaters, national standards, to achieve 3 as qualified products. However, as far as I know, some small manufacturers use OEM processing methods , does not have a quality control system, the quality of the product itself is indeed a problem."
1400 yuan for a difficult inspection of rights protection
After a quality problem arises in a cashmere sweater, how can it be safeguarded? A key step is naturally sent to the relevant departments for inspection and delivery. There are not many people who know to go to the "Shanghai Branch of the National Quality Supervision and Inspection Center for Wool Textile Products"; even if they know there is cashmere The authoritative organization of products, people who are willing to spend money to test once, even less.
Currently testing a cashmere sweater, it costs about 1400 yuan. "A cashmere sweater bought less than 500 yuan, the inspection will spend 3 times the price, and few people are willing." Xie Cheng also revealed that inspection is mainly in The number of scales contained in the fibers was observed under a microscope to distinguish between cashmere and wool. The cashmere scales were significantly less than wool. “Some manufacturers have mastered the technique of stripping scales. On the surface, the number of scales is quite large, which makes testing more difficult. The process is also affected by human factors. The results of the inspections of the same sample by different inspectors are often not completely consistent. Even the maximum error is 20%."
If consumers do not purchase branded cashmere sweaters, but purchase raw materials in cashmere yarn stores and then entrust processing, it is even more difficult to protect their rights and interests. "The cashmere yarns are sold as a conglomerate or stock, lacking a clear sign, and containing a full amount of cashmere. With a business mouth. In the shopping certificate, specifications, colors and weight, but it is not to write cashmere content, so you have no way to complain. "Xie Cheng said.
