RE MADE IN TOKYO JAPAN / Classic Sweat Zip Hoodie

Fusion of classic and modern
This stylish piece was created by inheriting the materials and details of vintage sweatshirt parkas with a universal look that evokes a sense of nostalgia.

The detailed sewing that can only be achieved by made-in-Japan sewing and the smooth, comfortable feel of carefully selected materials make this a very appealing item.

The material feel of old clothes and the unique modern design and silhouette are well blended to create a new standard parka.

Expression of vintage clothing texture
The fabric is made from an expensive cotton and rayon blend. It is knitted softly to give it a moderately thick and fluffy texture. It is characterized by a moist, smooth, and gentle feel, and has a high level of perfection that sets it apart from others.

Because it has been pre-washed, there is little worry about shrinkage after washing, and you can enjoy it in a stable size.

Comfortable fit and smart silhouette
The hood has a drawcord to adjust to your desired size. The front has a Universal double zip that can be securely fastened around the neck, and a stylish mesh pocket peeking out from the entrance.

Around the shoulders are the familiar RE “saddle raglan” and “side panel rib” specifications. By employing rib material with excellent elasticity in key areas, a comfortable fit and a smart silhouette are achieved. While following vintage details such as four-needle flat seams and longer rib length, modern functions and design have been incorporated.

Flat seams for durability and good skin feel
Flat seams are used to make the seams between two pieces of fabric flat and durable. It reduces stiffness and discomfort.

While it looks good and is comfortable to wear, it is one of the most time-consuming sewing processes. Each piece is carefully made by skilled craftsmen using the “Union Special,” a rare old-style 4-needle sewing machine that can produce only about 20 pieces per day.
