A tool allows a user to create new designs for apparel and preview these designs in three dimensions before manufacture. Software and lasers are used in finishing apparel to produce a desired wear pattern or other design. Based on a laser input file with a pattern, a laser will burn the pattern onto apparel. With the tool, the user will be able to create, make changes, and view images of a design, in real time, before burning by a laser. Input to the tool includes fabric template images, laser input files, and damage input. The tool allows adding of tinting and adjusting of intensity and bright point. The user can also move, rotate, scale, and warp the image input.

A structure has spaces that can accommodate at least two International Organization for Standardization compliant shipping containers. The structure has studs, joists, and rafters connected together above, besides, between, and in front of the spaces for the shipping containers. The structure provides for an attractive outdoor retail space with shading, allowing for signage, decorations, product display, ergonomics, and other retail design features. In an implementation, the structure is for a mobile retail space that is tailored for customizing and manufacture of the customized apparel, especially the laser finishing of products like jeans. The mobile retail space can be relocated to and deployed easily at various events, such as sports events and music festival venues.

A system and a method for laser marking a graphic on an object. The system includes: a laser system for producing a laser output; element(s) for moving the laser output on a surface of an object; a controller for controlling the laser system and the moving element(s), and for processing control information including a plurality of vectors, where for each vector the controller is configured to set a vector speed and a vector laser power according to a marking intensity value of the corresponding vector group such that at least two vectors within one of the vector groups have with respect to each other different vector speeds and vector laser powers, and a laser output's speed that is set according to the at least two vectors remains different than zero when the laser output travels along two trajectory parts which correspond to the at least two vectors.

An ink jet composition according to the present disclosure contains a flameproofing agent and resin particles. The resin particles are preferably urethanic resin particles. It is preferable that a urethanic resin making up the urethanic resin particles is a urethanic resin containing a crosslinking group and the crosslinking group is one or more selected from the group consisting of a blocked isocyanate group and a silanol group. The urethanic resin making up the urethanic resin particles preferably has a polycarbonate skeleton.

A system allows a user to create new designs for apparel and preview these designs before manufacture. Software and lasers are used in finishing apparel to produce a desired finishing pattern or other design. The system provides three-dimensional previews of their designs on a mannequin or other surface, using light projection techniques.

A fabric processing method of the present disclosure includes an attaching step of attaching a carboxylic anhydride to a fabric containing cellulose, and an esterification step of esterifying a hydroxyl group of the cellulose, in which, in the esterification step, the carboxylic acid is introduced into the cellulose through an ester bond. A molecular weight of the carboxylic anhydride preferably is 1000 or less.
