Elevated Puffer Jacket in Satin with Chunky Chain Strap
A Coffee Roaster Chain approached us to develop a elevated puffer jacket around a single idea: chunky chain strap, executed in satin. The capsule was destined for the Netherlands and needed elevated 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 sample did not match the runway reference
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- Decoration durability failed after two washes

How it was built

- Satin was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The puffer jacket 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.

- 2,400 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Coffee Roaster Chain 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.
