Case Study: Custom Embroidered Girls Denim for a Ski Resort in the Philippines
Embroidered Girls Denim for a Ski Resort in the Philippines
A Ski Resort approached us with a embroidered girls denim requirement for the Philippines. The brief was specific: a defined look, a hard launch date and a unit cost that had to survive shipping and duty. This case study records what was specified, what went wrong in sampling and how the bulk order was delivered.
The challenge
- Unclear responsibility when a defect shows up after washing
- Minimum order quantities far above what a growing brand can absorb
- Inconsistent sizing between production runs

What we specified
| Product | Embroidered Girls Denim |
|---|---|
| Client type | A Ski Resort |
| Market | the Philippines |
| Order volume | 2,000 pieces across 6 colourways |
| Base fabric | Mohair |
| Decoration | Care Label |
| Size range | XS-3XL |
| Sampling rounds | 4 |
| Delivery window | 6 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
How it was resolved
- We rebuilt the tech pack around Mohair and locked shrinkage allowance before grading.
- Decoration was moved to Care Label after strike-off tests showed better wash durability.
- A pre-production sample was approved and retained as the golden reference.
- Production ran with in-line inspection and a mid-run photo report.
- Cartons were packed to the client's own barcode and size ratio specification.

Result
- 2,000 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the original quotation.
- Return rate linked to fit or workmanship stayed under 1.5%.
- The specification is now on file, so reorders reproduce the approved sample.
What we would repeat
Approve a pre-production sample from the actual bulk fabric. Proto cloth behaves differently in cutting and washing.
