The thinnest loopwheeled fleece developed as an inner layer for jackets
The old-style loopwheel knitting machine originally produces fluffy fleece, similar to hand-knitting. While this machine itself can be customized and modified to achieve various textures, this S300 series is knitted as the "thinnest loopwheeled fleece," pushing the limits of the old-style loopwheel knitting machine. The goal was to create a loopwheeled fleece as versatile as jersey fabric. Its insulating power, comparable to thermal wear, and its versatility make it perfect as an inner layer for leather jackets. It features a mock neck design so the collar does not touch the skin.

DELUXEWARE S300 Mock Neck Sweatshirt

“A sweatshirt to wear inside a leather jacket.”

This DELUXEWARE’s thinnest loopwheeled fleece series fulfills that "wish-it-existed-but-doesn't" item.

Knitted to its thinnest possible limit on an old-style Azuma knitting machine, this loopwheeled fleece has the lightness of a long-sleeve T-shirt. However, the air pockets unique to its fleece structure provide insulation comparable to thermal wear.

Even with leather jackets or denim jackets, where thick sweatshirts can feel restrictive around the arms, this one allows for comfortable wear without stress.

Furthermore, the mock neck design ensures the collar doesn't directly touch the skin, enhancing cold weather protection.

Though seemingly simple, this piece condenses DELUXEWARE's craftsmanship, including the use of an old-style Azuma knitting machine, in-house factory sewing, and tailoring with vintage sewing machines.

It's a highly versatile sweatshirt that can be worn comfortably on its own not just in winter, but also in spring and autumn.
