Seasonal shirting, overshirts and fashion bottoms with washed and pigment finishes, where the finish has to be repeatable lot to lot.
Pigment and garment-dyed finishes give menswear its character, and they are also the least stable thing in the production process. Shade moves between lots, and crocking and wash-down behaviour vary with the base fabric.
We approve these finishes against shade bands rather than a single swatch, test crocking and colour fastness on the finished garment, and keep the base fabric fixed - changing the base changes the finish, however identical the recipe looks on paper.
Fabric, trim and test lead times mapped against the delivery date at development, so a late approval does not quietly become a late shipment.
Sets, linings and contrast panels approved together against one standard, because a matched two-piece that does not match is unsellable.
Fit approved on the production fabric, not on a substitute - viscose and crepe hang nothing like the handloom sample.
Print, embroidery and applied detail proven at bulk speed and bulk cost before the style is confirmed.
Send a reference garment or a tech pack and we will come back with the factory, the fabric route and a costing.
