Parisian Grip Sports Gloves in Velvet with Asymmetric Closure
A Shopify DTC Brand approached us to develop a parisian grip sports gloves around a single idea: asymmetric closure, executed in velvet. The capsule was destined for Saudi Arabia 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
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point

- Velvet was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The grip sports gloves was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Asymmetric Closure was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
- Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.
Result

- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The a Shopify DTC Brand launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
