Editorial Custom Family Sweatshirts in Genuine Leather with Crystal Embellishment

A Mining Company approached us to develop a editorial custom family sweatshirts around a single idea: crystal embellishment, executed in genuine leather. The capsule was destined for Spain and needed editorial 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

• Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
• Decoration durability failed after two washes
• Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Genuine Leather was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The custom family sweatshirts was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Crystal Embellishment was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
5. Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

Result

• 2,400 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
• Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
• The a Mining Company 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.
