Statement Soccer Athletic Uniform in Mohair with Contrast Topstitching

Statement Soccer Athletic Uniform in Mohair with Contrast Topstitching

A Trade Show Exhibitor approached us to develop a statement soccer athletic uniform around a single idea: contrast topstitching, executed in mohair. The capsule was destined for Turkey 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

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

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Mohair was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The soccer athletic uniform was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Contrast Topstitching 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

• 120 pieces delivered inside the 10-week window.
• Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
• The a Trade Show Exhibitor 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.
