Boutique Men Windbreaker Jacket in Merino Wool with Fringe Trim
A Boutique Fitness Studio approached us to develop a boutique men windbreaker jacket around a single idea: fringe trim, executed in merino wool. The capsule was destined for Canada and needed boutique 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 sample did not match the runway reference
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point

- The men windbreaker jacket was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Fringe Trim was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
- Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

- The a Boutique Fitness Studio 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.
