Boutique Pro Club Men Pullover Hoodie in Merino Wool with Fringe Trim
Boutique Pro Club Men Pullover Hoodie in Merino Wool with Fringe Trim
A Gym Chain approached us to develop a boutique pro club men pullover hoodie around a single idea: fringe trim, executed in merino wool. The capsule was destined for Belgium 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
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
- Decoration durability failed after two washes

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Merino Wool was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The pro club men pullover hoodie 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.

Result
- 900 pieces delivered inside the 10-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The a Gym Chain 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.
