Hawkshead Brewery approached us with a dual-purpose request: to create a bespoke range of garments that could serve as both team uniforms and retail items for their customers. Their vision was to combine practicality and style, ensuring that the clothing would reflect their brand identity while meeting high-quality retail standards.
The project presented several challenges. Tight timelines required initial production with local supply and decoration to meet immediate needs. Varied requirements meant some items requested were not available as local stock options, necessitating bespoke solutions. Additionally, the garments needed to achieve a retail quality comparable to well-known high-street brands, ensuring they were suitable for both functional use and customer appeal.
To address Hawkshead’s needs, we began by consulting closely with their team to design and develop the apparel range. Leveraging our expertise, we ensured each decision aligned with their brand identity and practical requirements.
For garments that were urgently required, we sourced high-quality stock items locally and customized them in the UK. Despite the time constraints, we ensured these items met retail standards, comparable to those of established high-street brands.
For specific items unavailable as stock options, we collaborated with one of our trusted Bangladeshi partners to create entirely bespoke garments. This approach enabled us to deliver on the unique requests without compromising on quality or design.
We meticulously selected materials and finishes to ensure the garments not only looked great but also felt premium. Every element, from fabric choice (organic cotton) to decoration techniques, was tailored to reinforce Hawkshead’s branding and appeal to both team members and customers.
The result was a versatile and high-quality range of retail hoodies and t-shirts that met Hawkshead’s dual-purpose goals. The garments have since been successfully used by their team and are available for customers to purchase, showcasing the brewery’s brand in style.
This project highlights our ability to navigate tight deadlines, leverage both local and international supply chains, and deliver bespoke and stock solutions that align with client goals. By employing a flexible, strategic approach, we ensured Hawkshead’s apparel was delivered on time, on budget, and to the highest standards.
Eisberg, the UK’s leading alcohol-free wine brand, partnered with cycling’s prestigious Tour of Britain to maximise brand awareness through high-profile sporting events. The client’s objective was to make a bold and lasting impact on both event attendees and television audiences, leveraging the growing popularity of cycling to increase their reach.
Our role was to design and produce a range of branded clothing and merchandise to support this campaign. This included t-shirts for crowd giveaways, technical cycling jerseys, and staff uniforms such as windbreaker jackets. Each garment needed to align with Eisberg’s branding while meeting the specific functional demands of the event.
The entry-level t-shirts were designed to be visually striking and cost-effective, ensuring they stood out when thrown into the crowd at race finishes. These t-shirts provided a splash of Eisberg’s branding throughout the event, creating an engaging interaction with spectators while amplifying brand visibility. For the technical cycling jersey, we prioritised performance features such as moisture-wicking fabrics, breathable materials, and a streamlined fit, ensuring it met the high standards expected by professional and amateur cyclists alike. Meanwhile, the staff yellow windbreaker jackets combined practicality and style, offering protection against unpredictable weather while maintaining a strong and cohesive brand presence.
The campaign proved to be a resounding success, with the merchandise playing a key role in Eisberg’s ability to make a bold impression on a relatively small budget. The visibility of their branding was magnified by extensive TV coverage, ensuring Eisberg stood out not only to event attendees but also to the broader television audience.
Eisberg reported significant ROI from this campaign, with the increased brand visibility contributing to their position as the UK’s number one alcohol-free wine. This collaboration highlights the power of carefully designed and strategically deployed branded clothing to create lasting impact.
