This sweatshirt was born from the origins of American sportswear, before the widespread use of synthetic materials in the 1950s. Like the Lot. 601 Tee Shirt, it features a direct cut and flat shape. By reconstructing the design, we can understand the background of craftsmanship that has been forgotten in modern times, such as the sweat-stopping V-gusset at the front and back neck. The round-body fleece lining is made on a loopwheel knitting machine in Wakayama. The use of USA cotton results in a fabric with a unique, dry texture. Loopwheel knitting machines, introduced to Japan during the Taisho era, are currently the only machines in operation in the world, located in Wakayama Prefecture. While extremely inefficient, with a knitting capacity of only one meter per hour, the slow process results in a fabric with a unique texture and just the right amount of unevenness, as if air is woven into it.
