Sculptural Mens Hunting Jackets in Genuine Leather with Bow Detail

Sculptural Mens Hunting Jackets in Genuine Leather with Bow Detail

An Influencer-Led Brand approached us to develop a sculptural mens hunting jackets around a single idea: bow detail, executed in genuine leather. The capsule was destined for South Africa and needed sculptural 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
• The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
• Delivery missed the collection launch window

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Genuine Leather was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The mens hunting jackets was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Bow Detail 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

• 2,400 pieces delivered inside the 10-week window.
• Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
• The an Influencer-Led Brand 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.
