Elevated Long Men Board Short in boucle with Bow Detail
Elevated Long Men Board Short in boucle with Bow Detail
A Mining Company approached us to develop a elevated long men board short around a single idea: bow detail, executed in boucle. The capsule was destined for Taiwan and needed elevated 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 sample did not match the runway reference
- 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.
- boucle was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The long men board short 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
- 1,500 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Mining Company launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
Lock the colour standard before grading; every downstream approval depends on it.
