Minimalist Belt Clips in Crochet with High-Low Hem
Minimalist Belt Clips in Crochet with High-Low Hem
A Ski Resort approached us to develop a minimalist belt clips around a single idea: high-low hem, executed in crochet. The capsule was destined for Brazil and needed minimalist finishing that reads designer on the rail while staying repeatable in bulk. This case study records the brief, the specification and the delivery.
The challenge
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point

- Crochet was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The belt clips was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- High-Low Hem was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
- Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The a Ski Resort launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not machines.
