What is a Shaker sweater?
The name “Shaker” comes from the Shakers, a Christian sect that emerged in England in the 18th century.

They actively adopted a highly practical way of life, abolishing decoration and adopting the simplest possible items of clothing, which led to the general term for strong, simple sweaters.

BINGHAMTON KNITTING COMPANY
A long-established knitting factory established in 1927 in Binghamton, upstate New York, USA. Since its founding, the company has been committed to manufacturing the finest American-made knit products, and 100% of all processes, from sewing to finishing, are done in-house.

Cotton knit with a comfortable feel
The material used is a low-gauge knit fabric knitted from a blend of cotton and polyester. The beautiful knit with an uneven texture enhances the simple design.

It is characterized by a fabric with moderate fleshiness and elasticity, and its smooth dry touch is attractive because it does not feel prickly unlike wool. Despite its voluminous texture, it is light and comfortable, and can be worn casually like a sweatshirt.

* The blend ratio of cotton and polyester differs depending on the color, and only natural is 100% cotton.

Simple details
The neck is a crew neck design with a moderate opening. The cuffs and hem are ribbed for a crisp impression.

Whether worn alone or layered
The relaxed silhouette has plenty of room. The sizing makes it easy to use as a main item as well as an inner layer, and it can be coordinated with a wide range of outfits.
