Idea to Production
AD Option 1:
Without a clear path to navigate the gap between design and production, many projects fail to take flight. To support our expertise in soft goods design, we’ve carefully curated our staff, equipment, and offerings with our clients in mind. Our soft goods design process includes includes conceptualization, developing specifications, fabricating rounds of prototypes, conducting supplier and material research, and providing manufacturing support through production. This unique strength is leveraged with our expertise in other areas to efficiently integrate soft goods design with hard components.
Our experts continue to grow deep relationships with domestic and international vendors to help clients realize product solutions. We have designed and implemented countless products for Foreign and Domestic production from small entrepreneurial projects to large scale products requiring global supply chains. Our sewn solutions are not only innovative but are designed for manufacturing, which helps reduce costs, time and complications associated with factory hand off.

Wearables Development
Whether to protect, collect data, or enhance experiences, wearables are impacting nearly every industry with immense potential. These cross-disciplinary development efforts require a unique mix of specialties: soft textiles, hard goods, electrical components, conductive yarns and thoughtful construction. Putting the user at the center, we help clients innovate in new ways. Learn More.
Hard & Soft Goods Integration
Hard and Soft Goods integration combines hard goods components with fabrics and foams. This process brings together numerous facets of product development including materials science, traditional plastic/resin molding techniques, design, engineering, sewing, welding, and lamination. Bringing these materials together to create beautiful, functional items is our specialty. Learn More.
3D Digital Knitting
Our production STOLL flat knitting machines (both 7.2- and 18-gauge machines) allow us to create an intricately detailed 3D shape, tension, and fiber within a design. The result? Isolated individual performance features through stitches and yarn that conventional knitting methods cannot provide. From compression garments to conductive textiles, this emerging category opens a wide range of possibilities and can reduce labor cost and scrap material. Learn More.
Sourcing to Implementation
From domestic factories to multi-national fabric mills, we can help craft the perfect sourcing and implementation strategy. We help clients navigate the complex world of testing standards, develop global supply chain solutions and work within standards (ISO13485 & Berry Compliant). Learn More
