Capsule Long Men Board Short in Vegan Leather with Raw-Edge Detailing

Capsule Long Men Board Short in Vegan Leather with Raw-Edge Detailing

An Independent Boutique Brand approached us to develop a capsule long men board short around a single idea: raw-edge detailing, executed in vegan leather. The capsule was destined for Belgium and needed capsule 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
• Delivery missed the collection launch window
• The sample did not match the runway reference

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Vegan Leather was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The long men board short was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Raw-Edge Detailing 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

• 120 pieces delivered inside the 10-week window.
• Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
• The an Independent Boutique Brand 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.
