Girls Denim Bomber Style Jacket for a Ski Resort in Australia
A Ski Resort approached us with a girls denim bomber style jacket requirement for Australia. 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
- Suppliers who disappear once the deposit is paid
- Minimum order quantities far above what a growing brand can absorb
What we specified
| Product | Girls Denim Bomber Style Jacket |
|---|---|
| Client type | A Ski Resort |
| Market | Australia |
| Order volume | 3,000 pieces across 4 colourways |
| Base fabric | Lace |
| Decoration | DTG Digital Printing |
| Size range | 2-12Y |
| Sampling rounds | 2 |
| Delivery window | 6 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
How it was resolved
- We rebuilt the tech pack around Lace and locked shrinkage allowance before grading.
- Decoration was moved to DTG Digital Printing 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
- 3,000 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
- Unit cost held within 4.5% of the original quotation.
- Return rate linked to fit or workmanship stayed under 1.0%.
- The specification is now on file, so reorders reproduce the approved sample.
What we would repeat
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not from machines.
