Taiga Takahashi Lot.603 Sweat Shirt MUD DYED BROWN

The sweatshirt originates from the roots of American sportswear, dating back to the 1950s, when synthetic materials became widespread.
Like the Lot.601 Tee Shirt, it has a direct cut and a flat shape.
By reconstructing the design, we can understand the background of the craftsmanship that has been forgotten in modern times, such as the sweat-stopping details called V-gussets at the neck on the front and back.
The round-bodied fleece is made on a loopwheel knitting machine in Wakayama.
By using USA cotton, the fabric has a unique texture with a dry feel.
The loopwheel knitting machine, which was introduced to Japan during the Taisho era, is currently in operation only in Wakayama Prefecture.
It is very inefficient as only one meter can be knitted per hour, but by taking the time to do so, the fabric has a unique texture with just the right amount of unevenness, as if air has been knitted into it.
MUD DYED BROWN and SUMI DYED BLACK are dyed one by one using the traditional Japanese dyeing techniques of "mud dyeing" and "ink dyeing." No two pieces are the same, so you can enjoy their one-of-a-kind appearance.
HAND DRAWN SUMI was inspired by the ink-flowing works of Kamizoe, a Kyoto paper craftsman, and by hand-painting the ink, it expresses the subtle nuances of the flow of the brush strokes used by Yuzen artisans.
Because each sweatshirt is hand-painted, the brush strokes and color tones are slightly different, resulting in no two sweatshirts having the same pattern.
