Case Study: Custom Jeans Sports Jacket for a Corporate Procurement Team in Qatar
Jeans Sports Jacket for a Corporate Procurement Team in Qatar
A Corporate Procurement Team approached us with a jeans sports jacket requirement for Qatar. 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
- Packaging that arrives crushed and unsellable
- Color drift between lab dips and bulk fabric
- Suppliers who disappear once the deposit is paid

What we specified
| Product | Jeans Sports Jacket |
|---|---|
| Client type | A Corporate Procurement Team |
| Market | Qatar |
| Order volume | 1,200 pieces across 2 colourways |
| Base fabric | Recycled Nylon |
| Decoration | Hangtag and Packaging |
| Size range | XS-3XL |
| Sampling rounds | 2 |
| Delivery window | 8 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
How it was resolved
- We rebuilt the tech pack around Recycled Nylon and locked shrinkage allowance before grading.
- Decoration was moved to Hangtag and Packaging 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
- 1,200 pieces delivered inside the 8-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.
