Designer Jeans Sports Jacket in Satin with Asymmetric Closure
A University Athletic Department approached us to develop a designer jeans sports jacket around a single idea: asymmetric closure, executed in satin. The capsule was destined for Norway and needed designer 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
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Satin was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The jeans sports jacket 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
- 400 pieces delivered inside the 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The a University Athletic Department launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not machines.
