The Weather Is Not Cold. The Cotton Business Is Cold.

Thousands of down clothing and 40 percent off new cotton padded clothes 12% off.

Yesterday, on the third floor and six floor of a large shopping mall on West Street, we saw all kinds of new models.

Besides winter clothing, sales of quilts, velvet underwear, sweaters and electric heaters are also affected by many factors such as temperature, price and so on, which reduce the interest of customers.

Ms. Zhu, who has worked hard in the clothing industry for nearly 10 years, told reporters that the sales of cotton padded clothes were not bad in late October when it was cold. Since November, the temperature has not dropped significantly.

"When the purchase price is affected by the rising cotton prices, the wholesale price is very high, and now the retail price is not going to drop too much, otherwise it will lose money, and now we only look forward to a cooling down weather."

She said.

Ms. Ho, a brand clothing store in Tumen, said there were only more than 200 items of down coats in the store, so far less than 1/4.

"It's hard to sell. Customers can't get in at the door. This year's sales cycle is short and it doesn't cool down. It's not comparable with the same period last year."

Reporters learned that, because the 2012 lunar new year in January, earlier than in previous years, this year sales of winter clothing is shorter than last year.

The industry believes that with the advent of low-temperature weather, sales will improve.
