Parisian Boys Elastic Waist Jeans in Metallic Thread with Chunky Chain Strap
Parisian Boys Elastic Waist Jeans in Metallic Thread with Chunky Chain Strap
A Yoga Retreat Brand approached us to develop a parisian boys elastic waist jeans around a single idea: chunky chain strap, executed in metallic thread. The capsule was destined for Italy and needed parisian 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes

How it was built

- Metallic Thread was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The boys elastic waist jeans was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Chunky Chain Strap was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
- Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

Result
- 240 pieces delivered inside the 10-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Yoga Retreat Brand 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.
