Although the market performance of down jackets continues to improve, and the price of judging brands is also rising, has down jackets entered an era where the more expensive the better?
Among the cost of down jackets, down accounts for more than 30% of the cost of down jackets. The data shows that the price of national standard 90 white duck down rose from 270,000 yuan/ton to about 390,000 yuan/ton, an increase of 45%. Coupled with factors such as labor, oil prices, and limited production and electricity, directly squeeze the brand's profit margins.
A deputy manager of a down jacket brand said: "The overall production cost of a garment has to be increased by nearly 50%, which is the highest in the past ten years."
Rising costs have forced companies to increase their efforts in product innovation and research and development to open up new blue oceans in the market. In this full-category women's clothing brand run by designer Wei Wei, the down jackets she designed once became a hot product in the autumn and winter category.
Wei Wei said that in the past, down jackets were the first to keep warm, but now they try more divergent designs. Down jackets have higher design requirements than ordinary ready-to-wear garments. From the design of the pattern to the control of the amount of down, it brings a lot of challenges to the designer: "For example, for a piece of clothing 190 grams of cashmere, how much specific weight needs to be allocated to each piece, This thing has been calculated."
