Scraped the <li> of a product detail in a website via BeautifulSoup of Python, but can't export it to csv

I'm having trouble with a crawler script that I created on Python. I'm grabbing the features and specifications (which are bullet points) for a list of product urls:

    import csv
    import requests
    from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
    
    url = 'https://www.academy.com/shop/browse/footwear/womens-footwear/womens-work-boots?&page_{}'
    
    def trade_spider(max_pages):
        data = []
        page = 1
        while page <= max_pages:
            
            current_url = url.format(page)
            source_code = requests.get(current_url)
            plain_text = source_code.text
            soup = BeautifulSoup(plain_text,'html.parser')
    
            for link in soup.findAll('a', {'class':'product-detail-container'}):
                href ="https://www.academy.com/" + link.get('href')
                name=get_single_item_data1(href)
                
                features=get_single_item_data5(href)
                specs=get_single_item_data6(href)
                
                entry = [name, features, specs] 
                data.append(entry)
    
            page += 1
        return data
    
    
    def get_single_item_data1(item_url):
            source_code = requests.get(item_url)
            plain_text = source_code.text
            soup = BeautifulSoup(plain_text,'html.parser')
    
            for item_name in soup.findAll('div', {'class':'flex-wrap flex-fill'}):
                print ('name:', item_name.string)
                return item_name.string
    
   def get_single_item_data5(item_url):
            source_code = requests.get(item_url)
            plain_text = source_code.text
            soup = BeautifulSoup(plain_text,'html.parser')
            
            for features in soup.findAll('li', {'data-auid':'feature-benefits-listing'}):
                print('features: ', features.string)
                return features.string
    
    def get_single_item_data6(item_url):
            source_code = requests.get(item_url)
            plain_text = source_code.text
            soup = BeautifulSoup(plain_text,'html.parser')
            
           
            for spec in soup.findAll('li', {'data-auid':'specifications_listing'}):
                print('specifications: ', spec.text)
                return spec.text
    
    row_data = trade_spider(1)
    row_headers = ['name','features', 'specs']
    
    with open('data.csv', 'w') as f:
        write = csv.writer(f)
        write.writerow(row_headers)
        write.writerows(row_data)
    
    print ()

The scraping works whenever I print out the results, but when it comes to saving them into a csv file, only the first bullet point gets printed.

Desired sample output:

Name: Lace Up Work Boots

Features: Steel toes safeguard your feet Suede uppers provide durability 5.5" boot height Meets ASTM F2413-11 I/75 C/75 standards Goodyear welt construction EVA insoles offer cushioning

Specifications: Activity: Work Steel toe: Yes Safety Toe: Steel Gender: Women's Material: Suede Boot height (in.): 6" and Under Slip Resistant: Yes Waterproof: No Electrical hazard (EH) rated: No

But instead I'm only getting as of now:

Name: Lace Up Work Boots

Features: Steel toes safeguard your feet

Specifications: Activity: Work

Any help?

You can use this example how to grab data from the items and save them to CSV:

import csv
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup


url = "https://www.academy.com/shop/browse/footwear/womens-footwear/womens-work-boots?&page_{}"


def grab_data(url):
    soup = BeautifulSoup(requests.get(url).content, "html.parser")

    title = soup.h1.get_text(strip=True)
    features = [
        f.get_text(strip=True)
        for f in soup.select('[data-auid="feature-benefits-listing"]')
    ]
    specs = [
        f.get_text(strip=True)
        for f in soup.select('[data-auid="specifications_listing"]')
    ]

    return title, features, specs


with open("data.csv", "w") as f_in:

    csv_writer = csv.writer(f_in)
    csv_writer.writerow(["Name", "Features", "Specifications"])

    for page in range(1, 2):  # <-- adjust to your page count
        soup = BeautifulSoup(
            requests.get(url.format(page)).content, "html.parser"
        )
        for a in soup.select("a.detail-card"):
            u = "https://www.academy.com" + a["href"]
            title, feats, specs = grab_data(u)
            print(title)
            print("*** Features:")
            print(*feats, sep="\n")
            print("*** Specifications:")
            print(*specs, sep="\n")
            print("-" * 80)

            csv_writer.writerow([title, " ".join(feats), " ".join(specs)])

Prints:
