Contemporary Men'S Camouflage Wetsuit in Washed Linen with Contrast Topstitching
Contemporary Men'S Camouflage Wetsuit in Washed Linen with Contrast Topstitching
A Boutique Fitness Studio approached us to develop a contemporary men's camouflage wetsuit around a single idea: contrast topstitching, executed in washed linen. The capsule was destined for Kenya and needed contemporary 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 previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Delivery missed the collection launch window

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Washed Linen was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The men's camouflage wetsuit was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Contrast Topstitching 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
- 120 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Boutique Fitness Studio 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.
