Statement Mens Black Down Jacket With Hood in Ribbed Jersey with Raw-Edge Detailing

Statement Mens Black Down Jacket With Hood in Ribbed Jersey with Raw-Edge Detailing

A Gym Chain approached us to develop a statement mens black down jacket with hood around a single idea: raw-edge detailing, executed in ribbed jersey. The capsule was destined for India and needed statement 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

• Delivery missed the collection launch window
• Decoration durability failed after two washes
• Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Ribbed Jersey was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The mens black down jacket with hood 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

• 240 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
• Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
• The a Gym Chain 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.
