Modern Softball Pitcher Cap in Sequined Knit with Gathered Sleeves
Modern Softball Pitcher Cap in Sequined Knit with Gathered Sleeves
A Logistics Provider approached us to develop a modern softball pitcher cap around a single idea: gathered sleeves, executed in sequined knit. The capsule was destined for Turkey and needed modern 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
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Decoration durability failed after two washes

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Sequined Knit was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The softball pitcher cap was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Gathered Sleeves 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
- 2,400 pieces delivered inside the 6-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
Approve the hand feel on the actual bulk fabric — proto cloth always behaves differently.
