Vintage-Inspired Joma Training Wear in Crochet with Bow Detail
Vintage-Inspired Joma Training Wear in Crochet with Bow Detail
A Hotel Group approached us to develop a vintage-inspired joma training wear around a single idea: bow detail, executed in crochet. The capsule was destined for Hong Kong and needed vintage-inspired 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

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Crochet was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The joma training wear was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Bow Detail 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
- 600 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Hotel Group 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.
