Statement Grey Womens Jogging Suit in Cupro with Tonal Embroidery

A University Athletic Department approached us to develop a statement grey womens jogging suit around a single idea: tonal embroidery, executed in cupro. The capsule was destined for Norway and needed statement 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
• The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
• Fabric hand feel changed between production runs

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Cupro was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The grey womens jogging suit was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Tonal Embroidery 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 6-week window.
• Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
• The a University Athletic Department launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.

What we would repeat

Approve the hand feel on the actual bulk fabric — proto cloth always behaves differently.
