Plus Size 3/4 Sleeve Tunic for a Golf Club in Canada
A Golf Club approached us with a plus size 3/4 sleeve tunic requirement for Canada. 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
- No reliable way to track a order once it enters production
- Minimum order quantities far above what a growing brand can absorb
- Packaging that arrives crushed and unsellable
What we specified
| Product | Plus Size 3/4 Sleeve Tunic |
|---|---|
| Client type | A Golf Club |
| Market | Canada |
| Order volume | 5,000 pieces across 6 colourways |
| Base fabric | Faux Shearling |
| Decoration | Distressed Finish |
| Size range | 2-12Y |
| Sampling rounds | 3 |
| Delivery window | 12 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
How it was resolved
- We rebuilt the tech pack around Faux Shearling and locked shrinkage allowance before grading.
- Decoration was moved to Distressed Finish 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
- 5,000 pieces delivered inside the 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the original quotation.
- Return rate linked to fit or workmanship stayed under 2.0%.
- 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.
