TAIGA TAKAHASHI LOT.603 SWEAT SHIRT

The sweatshirt takes root in the origin of American sportswear before the 1950s when synthetic materials became a mainstream. Like LOT.601 T-shirt, the item is characterized by direct cutting lines and a flat shape. Backgrounds of details forgotten in today's apparel production like V gussets, added on the front and back of the neck to stop sweat, is understood by reconstructing the process in earlier times.
The tubular jersey cotton was manufactured by a hanging knitting machine in Wakayama. The use of American cotton achieves a dry, unique texture in the fabric. Hanging knitting machines were introduced to Japan during Taisho era (1912 – 1926). The one in Wakayama is now the world's only machine from that period still in operation. While it lacks efficiency because it can only knit a meter per hour, the slow process creates unique texture with moderate unevenness as if the surrounding air is woven into the texture.
MUD DYED BROWN and SUMI DYED BLACK are carefully dyed one by one using "mud dye" and "Indian ink dye", the traditional Japanese dyeing techniques. Unique expressions characterize the craftwork, as each sweatshirt looks different from others.HAND DRAWN SUMI was Inspired by marbling works created with sumi ink by Kamisoe, a karakami workshop based in Kyoto, we hand-painted our original tubular jersey with sumi ink to capture the subtle nuances of brushstrokes crafted by a Yuzen dyeing artisan. Each piece is truly one of a kind, as the hand-drawn brushstrokes and variations in shading differ slightly from item to item.
