Elevated Tapered Mens Sweat Pants in Crochet with Monogram Hardware
A Yoga Retreat Brand approached us to develop a elevated tapered mens sweat pants around a single idea: monogram hardware, executed in crochet. The capsule was destined for Peru and needed elevated 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
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point

- Monogram Hardware was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.

What we would repeat
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not machines.
