Designer Wool Coats in Vegan Leather with Covered Buttons
A Promotional Products Company approached us to develop a designer wool coats around a single idea: covered buttons, executed in vegan leather. The capsule was destined for Colombia and needed designer 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- The sample did not match the runway reference

How it was built

- Vegan Leather was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The wool coats was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Covered Buttons 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
- 1,500 pieces delivered inside the 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Promotional Products Company 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.
