This is a first-party, anonymized project reference—not an independent customer testimonial. The page separates what is visible in the sample, what was recorded for production review, and what is not publicly evidenced.
- 01
Problem
The product used a zip-front construction with large artwork, contrast hood fabric, sleeve print details, and multiple trim decisions. The risk was zipper alignment, pocket symmetry, artwork placement, and fabric shade consistency.

- Check front zipper alignment and pocket symmetry before approving the bulk sample.
- Match the light contrast hood panel shade to the approved sample image.
