Luxe Breathable Tactical Pants in Crochet with Crystal Embellishment
A Uniform Supplier approached us to develop a luxe breathable tactical pants around a single idea: crystal embellishment, executed in crochet. The capsule was destined for Austria and needed luxe finishing that reads designer on the rail while staying repeatable in bulk. This case study records the brief, the specification and the delivery.

- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
