Editorial Volleyball Compression Pants in Vegan Leather with Cut-Out Detail

Editorial Volleyball Compression Pants in Vegan Leather with Cut-Out Detail

A Private Clinic approached us to develop a editorial volleyball compression pants around a single idea: cut-out detail, executed in vegan leather. The capsule was destined for Italy and needed editorial 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

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 volleyball compression pants was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Cut-Out Detail 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 6-week window.
• Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
• The a Private Clinic 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.
