Sculptural Grip Sports Gloves in Organza with Gathered Sleeves
Sculptural Grip Sports Gloves in Organza with Gathered Sleeves
A Beauty Salon Chain approached us to develop a sculptural grip sports gloves around a single idea: gathered sleeves, executed in organza. The capsule was destined for the Philippines and needed sculptural 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 would repeat
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not machines.
