Case Study: Custom Peaky Blinders Peaked Cap for a Corporate Procurement Team in Spain
Peaky Blinders Peaked Cap for a Corporate Procurement Team in Spain
A Corporate Procurement Team approached us with a peaky blinders peaked cap requirement for Spain. 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
- Long lead times that miss the selling season
- Inconsistent sizing between production runs

What we specified
| Product | Peaky Blinders Peaked Cap |
|---|---|
| Client type | A Corporate Procurement Team |
| Market | Spain |
| Order volume | 3,000 pieces across 3 colourways |
| Base fabric | Slub Cotton |
| Decoration | Debossing |
| Size range | 2-12Y |
| Sampling rounds | 4 |
| Delivery window | 8 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
How it was resolved
- We rebuilt the tech pack around Slub Cotton and locked shrinkage allowance before grading.
- Decoration was moved to Debossing 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 8-week window.
- Unit cost held within 4.5% 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
Lock the colour standard before grading. Once a shade moves, every downstream approval has to be redone and the calendar slips.
