Modern Cycling Glasses in Silk with Padded Shoulder
A Professional Sports Club approached us to develop a modern cycling glasses around a single idea: padded shoulder, executed in silk. The capsule was destined for Peru and needed modern 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 previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
- Delivery missed the collection launch window

- The cycling glasses was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Padded Shoulder was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
- Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

- The a Professional Sports Club launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
Lock the colour standard before grading; every downstream approval depends on it.
