Parisian Funky Socks For Kids in Merino Wool with Gathered Sleeves
Parisian Funky Socks For Kids in Merino Wool with Gathered Sleeves
A Fast-Growing Startup Label approached us to develop a parisian funky socks for kids around a single idea: gathered sleeves, executed in merino wool. The capsule was destined for Poland and needed parisian 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- The sample did not match the runway reference

What we would repeat
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not machines.
