This hooded sweatshirt is made using an original brushed-back fleece fabric inspired by rare pin-striped hooded sweatshirts from the 1960s, and is woven entirely in Wakayama, Japan. Unlike typical striped fleece fabrics, this material uses a special "SZ yarn" not only for the surface thread but also in the inner yarns. This luxurious touch prevents excessive twisting of the stripe pattern and showcases the fine stripe pitch beautifully. The fabric is densely knitted and features a brushed-back fleece, providing a smooth and plush texture while enhancing fabric stability and insulation.
The 4-needle seam stitching is executed with a special vintage machine, showcasing exceptional skill and attention to detail. The sweatshirt features distinctive details such as a binder-style rib fabric around the hood opening, a kangaroo pocket stitched in a single pass using a 4-needle machine, 2-needle stitching on the shoulders, neck, and armholes, and 4-needle stitching at the sides and under the sleeves.
The dyeing process starts with a natural cotton heather slub jersey base, with the sweatshirts then dyed in Natural Kakishibu by hand, piece by piece. A combination of the irregular weave and texturally irregular fabric base results in a penetration of the natural dye in a variegated fashion, celebrating a range of Kakishibu dyed hues.
The sweatshirt boasts a regular fit with the right amount of room and balance to allow for layering. With each wear, the fabric's character will deepen, allowing the details and color to shine through.
