Customization & Development
Product Details
This sand-washed Modal scuba zip jacket combines a full front zipper, high stand collar and relaxed blouson shape with a fine vertical drop-needle texture. Angled shoulder panels direct the rib lines across the upper body, while the cuff and hem bands control the softer volume. Designed for coordinated athleisure, travel and elevated lounge collections, the style offers a refined alternative to a conventional smooth scuba track jacket.

Drop-Needle Texture with Modal Softness
280 GSM Scuba with Visible Vertical Structure
The 49.5% Modal content supports a smooth, soft hand, while polyester helps the fabric maintain body and dimensional stability. Five percent spandex provides moderate stretch and recovery through the sleeves, shoulders and hem. The drop-needle construction creates fine vertical channels that visually lengthen the body and distinguish the jacket from standard flat-surface scuba.
Sand Washing Without Flattening the Texture
Sand washing reduces surface shine and gives the Modal blend a more relaxed touch. The process should soften the garment without weakening the raised-and-recessed needle pattern. Approval needs to cover shade, hand feel, shrinkage and recovery after finishing, because excessive treatment can reduce the clarity of the vertical texture.
Aligning Texture Through Panels and the Front Zip
The shoulder and upper-body panels change the direction of the drop-needle lines, making seam matching a visible quality point. Both sides should mirror each other, with clean intersections around the neckline and armhole. Distorted rib direction can make an otherwise balanced jacket appear uneven.
The center zipper must lie flat without stretching the textured knit. Collar height, zipper top stop, pocket openings and hem-band tension should be checked together on the worn sample. Production control should also review sleeve volume, cuff recovery and finished body length before bulk manufacturing.
Built for Coordinated Athleisure Sets
This jacket can be paired with leggings, fitted flare pants, straight trousers or a matching drop-needle scuba bottom. Its soft hand supports travel and loungewear positioning, while the high collar and clean panel work give the piece enough structure for casual daywear. It is intended as a lifestyle layer rather than technical performance outerwear.

Buyer FAQs for Drop-Needle Modal Scuba
Can the vertical needle pattern vary between panels?
The direction may change by design, but left-right panels should remain symmetrical and follow the approved cutting layout.
Does sand washing affect the rib definition?
It can if the treatment is too strong. Wash intensity should be confirmed against texture clarity, stretch recovery and finished measurements.
Can matching bottoms be developed in the same fabric?
Yes. Matching pieces should use compatible fabric lots and be approved together for shade, stretch direction and wash response.
Locking Texture Direction Before Marker Planning
Review the approved sample for drop-needle alignment, sand-washed hand, zipper flatness, collar shape and band recovery. Sampling and ODM production can be coordinated with matching bottoms or related collection pieces. For quotation, provide the target quantity, size range, preferred colors, wash reference, branding details and technical files.
