Co-Design Stage 2: Colors and Patterns

Co-Design Stage 2: Colors and Patterns

by Dallas Moore November 10, 2017 0 Comments

STAGE 1 CO-DESIGN COMPLETE

Thank you to everyone who helped during the first Co-Design project. You are helping us build a brand that will deliver 100% the performance and 50% the price of comparable brands. (click here to learn how we deliver Wholesale-To-Consumer pricing)

During the first Co-Design project, we worked together to refine the basic designs and established the ideal balance between performance and price that best suits the needs of your families. The most popular designs will be shown in the Stage 2 Co-Design project, which starts this weekend!


CO-DESIGN STAGE 2 - View the winning designs & vote for your favorite colors / patterns!

Now that we have refined the basic product designs and desired performance levels, it is time for the fun part... to fill them with colors and patterns.

The What: Vote for the colors and patterns your family wants for the Winter 2018 product line.

The When: November 10th - 13th. (We are aiming to have this project ready for you to start on Friday evening, but it may not be ready until Saturday morning) We had to keep this project short so we could maintain our product development timeline.

The How: Everyone that was registered on our website before November 10th will be sent an email containing a link to the project. If you are not on that list, it is not too late. Register at the bottom of the page to have the link sent to you.

WHY WE CO-DESIGN

In addition to kicking off the second stage of Co-Designing, I wanted to share just one example that shows why we believe so strongly in the Co-Design process. Our assumption was that kids and their parents would prefer a crew neck for their baselayers. To our surprise, the vast majority of families voted for a 1/4 zip neck configuration (around 70% for both the Boys and Girls). Well we listened, and that’s what we are going to make!

 

 

Stay tuned for more updates as we continue moving through the product development process. Thank you all for your input!

Size Guides

SHRED DOG size guides are based on body size not garment measurements. Please note that all SHRED DOG products are designed to layer, therefore each product is cut and sized to accommodate the appropriate layers underneath it. 

In general, we have found that one size larger than the child's age is typically what most families choose to allow more room for growth. But to be sure, it is always best to measure.

Measuring Tips

To get the best fitting products please take a few minutes to measure your kid following these simple steps. For all measuring use a flexible tape.

  1. Chest - Measure horizontally across the fullest area of the chest
  2. Waist - Measure horizontally around the narrowest part of the waist, (which is about 2 inches above the belly button)
  3. Hip - With feet together measure around the fullest point of the hip,  keeping the tape measure horizontal 
  4. Inseam - Without shoes on, measure from front crotch straight down to the floor and reduce 1/2" 
  5. Height - Measure from floor straight up to the top of the head
  6. Sleeve Length - Measure from center back across shoulder point and down the arm to the wrist
