Design and materials
Build the mockup, confirm available wool, leather and trims, prepare embroidery files, trace patterns and cut the components.
XTEXTILE CASE STUDY · ARTIST PROJECT
ÑENGO FLOW 72 HOURS.
Two 1-of-1 varsity jackets designed, engineered and produced in Lima—then delivered hours before Ñengo Flow stepped onto the National Stadium stage with Bad Bunny.
An exceptional, capacity-dependent project. The 72-hour timeline is not a standard production lead time.

THE CALL
Three days before the concert, the jacket did not exist.
Ñengo Flow's team reached Xtextile with logos and a fixed stage date—but no final garment, material combination or production-ready design. We had to turn an urgent creative direction into a real, coherent product without separating design from manufacturing reality.
The immovable deadline
The concert could not move. Every creative and technical decision had to protect the delivery window.
One brief. Zero room for delay.
Xtextile assumed the complete route from visual concept to finished garment, aligning the artist's identity with materials that were available and technically viable inside the window.
- Creative direction and mockup
- Material and color selection
- Logo placement and embroidery preparation
- Pattern, cutting and garment construction
- Finishing, review and delivery
THE 72-HOUR COUNTDOWN
Every day had one non-negotiable outcome.
Embroidery and construction
Execute the decorated panels, assemble the wool body, leather sleeves and custom rib, then continue sewing through the night.
Finish and delivery
Install snaps, clean, press, inspect, photograph and deliver both completed pieces only hours before the show.
PRODUCT ENGINEERING
A varsity jacket built for stage presence.
The result had to read as one deliberate object—not a collection of logos added to an ordinary jacket. Structure, contrast, color and embroidery were developed together.
01 · IDENTITY
A project-specific 1-of-1 label
02 · CONSTRUCTION
Wool body, leather sleeves and custom rib
03 · EXECUTION
Details prepared as part of the garment
Visual direction
Translate supplied logos into a balanced front, back and sleeve composition.
Material integration
Combine a structured wool body with leather sleeves and a custom knitted collar.
Textile adaptation
Prepare scale, color and placement so every graphic reads correctly in embroidery.
Quality under pressure
Keep construction, finishing and inspection inside an unusually compressed schedule.
THE EXTRA MILE
Requested one. Delivered two.
The original request was for one jacket. Xtextile developed and delivered two distinct 1-of-1 pieces, giving the artist's team a real choice before the appearance.
One of those jackets was selected for Ñengo Flow's performance with Bad Bunny at the National Stadium in Lima.
THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE PROJECT
From a direct conversation to a stage-ready garment.
A moment from the project in Lima with Xtextile founder César and Ñengo Flow. Behind the 72-hour execution was a close, human collaboration connecting the artist, his team and Xtextile's design and manufacturing operation.

THE RESULT
The jacket reached the moment it was built for.
On January 17, 2026, Ñengo Flow appeared as Bad Bunny's surprise guest during the second Lima show. The selected jacket moved directly from Xtextile's workshop into one of the country's highest-visibility live music moments.

The jacket, the artist and the live moment.
MORE THAN SPEED
Responding quickly did not mean improvising. This case demonstrates what an integrated design and production team can do when materials, capacity and a fixed cultural moment align. It does not mean that every custom project can—or should—be produced in 72 hours.
