Chic Boys Elastic Waist Jeans in Organic Denim with Raw-Edge Detailing
A Surf School approached us to develop a chic boys elastic waist jeans around a single idea: raw-edge detailing, executed in organic denim. The capsule was destined for Russia and needed chic 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
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- The sample did not match the runway reference
