The approach is good. I like the format of the swatch book. It shows both traditional swatches and fashion swatches, all fiber contents, examples are suitable for apparel use. The new edition of the swatch book would definitely be required.

    Unbelievable. I bought this for a Zep fan friend. The packaging awesome. The shipping only 2 days as seller had the shipping info the night I secured it and in the mail next day. Pictures were true. I still can't believe the price. But, best of all was my Zep fan friend joyfully, tearing asking...Where did you get these? Much, much thanks to this incredible seller start to finish but very best for bringing such happiness with this item. We Thank You and Wish U The Best!
