Case Study: Custom Plus Size Arm Shaper for an Amazon Private Label Seller in India
Plus Size Arm Shaper for an Amazon Private Label Seller in India
An Amazon Private Label Seller approached us with a plus size arm shaper requirement for India. 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
- Suppliers who disappear once the deposit is paid
- Color drift between lab dips and bulk fabric
- Long lead times that miss the selling season

What we specified
| Product | Plus Size Arm Shaper |
|---|---|
| Client type | An Amazon Private Label Seller |
| Market | India |
| Order volume | 500 pieces across 4 colourways |
| Base fabric | Flannel |
| Decoration | Custom Button |
| Size range | 2-12Y |
| Sampling rounds | 3 |
| Delivery window | 5 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
How it was resolved
- We rebuilt the tech pack around Flannel and locked shrinkage allowance before grading.
- Decoration was moved to Custom Button 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
- 500 pieces delivered inside the 5-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
Approve a pre-production sample from the actual bulk fabric. Proto cloth behaves differently in cutting and washing.
