The disclosure relates to a method for decolorization of a dye-colored synthetic polymer, which includes the steps of treating a dye-colored synthetic polymer, such as polyester, with a treatment composition at pH 6 or less, the treatment composition comprising sodium formaldehyde sulfoxylate, water, and a ketone. The resulting decolorized synthetic polymer is then separated from the treatment composition.

Delayed finishing of apparel products, such as by way of laser finishing, allows an operating model that reduces finishing cost, lowers carrying costs, increases productivity, shortens time to market, be more reactive to trends, reduce product constraints, reduces lost sales and dilution, and more. Improved aspects include design, development, planning, merchandising, selling, making, and delivering. The model uses fabric templates, each of which can be used to produce a multitude of finishes. Operational efficiency is improved.
