There are several items that are typical of "WISM," and sweatshirts are one of them. The "ULTERIOR" brand introduced here is probably familiar to those of you who heard of it earlier.
The brand's philosophy is to draw out the essential charm of materials, and to create products that pursue a quiet, strong beauty with the ancient Japanese sense of beauty, such as "blank spaces" and "imbalance," as its identity. The brand's philosophy is to create products that pursue a quiet and strong beauty.
This project started with an original fabric that the buyer of "Wism" fell in love with at first sight at an exhibition.
The fabric is called "DRY FEEL SILKY TERRY" developed by designer Daisuke Maki. The detailed explanation is as follows.
The outer yarn is made of high-twisted coarse-grain yarn, and the inner yarn is made of non-twisted yarn. By using a luxurious wooden yarn for the inner yarn as well, the color of the yarn has a vintage look with a deep and indescribable wooden tone. The high-micron brushed finish gives it a silky, dry touch on the surface, while the non-twisted yarn on the reverse side gives it a supple texture that feels good against the skin. The knitted fabric is medium weight, but is knit in a degree-filling technique, so it does not easily lose its shape, and its texture will improve over time as it is used.
. Anyway, it is a material that we have put our whole heart and soul into, filled with our strong desire and commitment to the wooden gray color.
The in-line line includes a hoodie and slacks-type pants, but "Wism" offers two models that are daringly finished in a naughty way rather than utilizing the finest fabrics as they are.
At first glance, it has a minimalist look, but while incorporating specifications inspired by heritage items, such as the stitching that stops in the middle of the underarm body from the ribbing at the sleeve cuffs, and the side lines that have been shifted backwards, the grafting under the sleeves has been given a touch that gives a comfortable sense of discomfort somewhere. The design is inspired by heritage items, but with a touch of comfort.
The addition of a kangaroo pocket, which is convenient to have, gives it a sense of nooks and crannies that are typical of "wism.
The pants are based on vintage sweatpants , accented with gusseted crotch grips and stitchwork.
. It features a straight and beautiful straight silhouette that eliminates outseams. . The elasticized hem gives it an authentic, classic, and sporty look.
The ultimate sweatshirt set-up, which seems to be impossible to find anywhere else, has been completed by adding "wism" to the superb base created by Daisuke Maki, a designer who loves sweatshirts, to fit the current mood.
The more it is worn, the more its texture grows, but it does not easily lose its shape, and it is both sturdy and flexible.
We think it is best if you wear it in a mischievous and selfish way while enjoying the subtle hints of wildness and inattention to detail.
