Effortless Quick Dry Surf Rash Guard in Mohair with Raw-Edge Detailing
Effortless Quick Dry Surf Rash Guard in Mohair with Raw-Edge Detailing
A Logistics Provider approached us to develop a effortless quick dry surf rash guard around a single idea: raw-edge detailing, executed in mohair. The capsule was destined for Chile and needed effortless 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Mohair was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The quick dry surf rash guard was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Raw-Edge Detailing 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
- 400 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Logistics Provider 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.
