Below, we&#8217;ve put together a collection of different links for you with more information on the reasons behind the price adjustments.<\/p>\n<h2>More background on the product price changes<\/h2>\n<p>Cotton prices are up: Global consumption is expected to reach record levels this year, exceeding available supply.
