The charm of sweatshirt knit 2Original knitting fabric that combines a beautiful silhouette and comfort
The most distinctive feature of the sweatshirt knit “ARNOLD” is its knitting fabric. The cotton yarn on the front has been processed to remove impurities and excess fluff for a smooth feel, and the polyester yarn “AMOSSA” with strong stretch properties is combined with a special knitting technique on the reverse side to create a fabric with the rough feel of a sweatshirt but with the elegance of a knit sweater. The fabric has a moderate firmness. It has just the right amount of firmness to create a beautiful silhouette that beautifully compensates for the lines of the body. In addition, its high elasticity and kick-back properties provide not only a comfortable fit, but also prevent wrinkling due to wear.
This is a knit sweater, so hand washing is recommended. However, compared to heavy cotton sweaters, it is less likely to lose its shape and dries quickly, so you can expect it to be in heavy rotation as long as you keep in mind not to take care of it too roughly.

Charm of Sweatshirts 3
Sweatshirts have fewer parts than woven items such as shirts and jackets, and the fabric is stretchable, so it may seem that there is little difference in silhouette, but in fact, the impression is changed by differences in shoulder width, body width, length, and rib tension. The “ARNOLD” is the most popular brand in the world. ARNOLD” follows the pattern of sweatshirts from the 90s, which the creator thinks is the coolest. From there, the neckline, shoulder tilt, rib tension, etc. are fine-tuned to fit the current mood. The relaxed yet not too long box shape and rounded silhouette go well with all kinds of pants. It fits not only casual pants but also beautiful trousers.

Sweatshirt Knit Appeal 4Tough double-attached round neck ribs
The neck of the sweatshirt is double-attached, a structure in which two layers of fabric are attached to create a firm, tight impression. The ribbed parts of the neck, cuffs, and hem are made of 100% cotton, which is gentle to the skin, and are adjusted to be less constrictive when worn by creating a highly elastic knitted fabric.
