Avant-Garde Professional Volleyball Shoes in Vegan Leather with Fringe Trim

Avant-Garde Professional Volleyball Shoes in Vegan Leather with Fringe Trim

A Professional Sports Club approached us to develop a avant-garde professional volleyball shoes around a single idea: fringe trim, executed in vegan leather. The capsule was destined for Portugal and needed avant-garde 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
• Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
• The sample did not match the runway reference

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Vegan Leather was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The professional volleyball shoes was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Fringe Trim 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

• 1,500 pieces delivered inside the 12-week window.
• Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
• The a Professional Sports Club 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.
