Sports Line "Cashmere Knitwear"
Our "Cashmere Knitwear" sport line is meticulously crafted in specialized domestic factories using the world's finest cashmere yarn.
Each piece of our made-to-order cashmere knitwear is individually crafted at a specialized cashmere knit factory in Iwate Prefecture. Although the entire process takes about a month to complete, the resulting finish is unparalleled. Notably, after the final special finishing process, the knitwear is washed to accentuate the softness of the cashmere. Instead of using a dryer, we allow it to air dry naturally. While this method is time-consuming, it ensures that no stress is placed on the cashmere, resulting in a softer finish. The pristine environment of Iwate Prefecture, known for its clean air and water, plays a crucial role in this natural drying process.
The cashmere yarn we use is of the highest global standard. We source our yarn from Japanese manufacturers recognized for world top-quality. Only around 20 companies worldwide can spin cashmere of this certified quality, making it a rare and exclusive commodity. While its appearance may seem understated, you will undoubtedly notice the difference once you touch and wear it. Our knitwear is crafted with a focus on touch and comfort. The cashmere artisans highly recommend experiencing this comfort directly against the skin, and you'll understand their confidence as soon as you slip into one of these pieces. Brush it, wash it, care for it, and the more you wear it, the better it becomes.
Thoughtfully Designed Knitwear Unique to Our Custom Salon
We pride ourselves not only on our choice of materials and tailoring but also on our meticulous attention to sizing and design. Our knitwear, designed to seamlessly complement dress items such as jackets, slacks, and suits, epitomizes the expertise of our bespoke suit salon. Crafted to sit snugly as an inner layer beneath a jacket without bulking and to present an elegant appearance, every aspect - from the shoulders, armholes, torso, to the sleeves - is tailored for a clean, form-fitting silhouette. Additionally, during fittings, for knitwear items with ribbed cuffs and hems, we ensure the length is just right to avoid a casual drooped look. For our V-necks, they are deliberately deepened to ensure a tie fits neatly beneath, allowing for a polished look even when worn over a tied necktie.
Conversely, our cashmere knitwear excels as casual wear or loungewear. The crew neck design is the most popular choice for casual use.
While a snug fit is classic, we also recommend opting for an oversized look to achieve both a relaxed appearance and a comfortable feel. This design offers a completely stress-free experience, making it ideal for telecommuting from home. Unlike regular sweatshirts, it looks polished enough for online meetings or a quick trip to the local store. Personally, whenever I feel a slight chill during desk work or stepping out into the neighborhood, I drape a crew neck over my shoulders. It adds a stylish touch to a shirt ensemble, and its ease of wear is another plus point.
Our sports line, "Cashmere Knitwear," offers a selection of 8 types:
Turtleneck (Mock neck)
This item is the most popular choice as an inner layer for suits and jackets. Its ability to create an elegant V-zone when worn alone is a highly appreciated feature. Depending on your preference, it can also be tailored as a mock neck.
Crew Neck
A popular item for casual use. It looks wonderful layered over a shirt. If you're looking for a more relaxed coordinate, consider having it tailored in an oversized style.
V-Neck
Ideal for wearing alone or layered over a T-shirt, this shallow V-neck is recommended. It pairs well with sporty scenarios, like golf attire.
We also offer a deeper V-neck variant. Particularly if you wear neckties, this classic model is recommended, as the tie neatly nestles against the chest.
Cardigan
Perfect for layering. Consider having a turtleneck or scarf tailored in the same color, and wear them as an ensemble. How about that?
Polo
With its collar, the polo offers a moderately formal look, making it ideal for business casual occasions. It's also recommended for the golfing scene.
Vest
We offer two types: V-neck and front-open. The sleeveless design of the knit vest allows for easy removal and wearing. Its moderate warmth is especially valuable during transitional seasons. Moreover, when worn under a jacket, it serves as a perfect accent to your ensemble.
Scarf (Regular & Large)
Alongside pullovers (sweaters) like turtlenecks and V-necks, our cashmere scarf is highly acclaimed and favored by our customers.
Typically, when one mentions a cashmere scarf, it often brings to mind a woven fabric. Woven scarves have a tightly packed weave, making them robust, but this can also make them feel somewhat stiff. On the other hand, the cashmere scarf crafted at our store is, naturally, knitted. Because of its knit nature, we can adjust the tension during the knitting process. Compared to pullovers that demand durability, our scarves are knitted more gently, making them incredibly soft, airy, and enveloping around the neck. Unlike woven scarves, ours feel lightweight, soft, and exceptionally gentle on the skin. They also exhibit superior moisture-wicking properties, ensuring no discomfort from dampness. For those who say, "I'm not fond of scarves; they itch or feel stuffy around my neck," we believe trying our cashmere scarf will change your perception. Additionally, our cashmere scarf is highly popular as a gift. How about having the finest cashmere scarf tailored in the color loved ones prefer as a present?
Our cashmere knitwear is by no means inexpensive. However, when considering its value, it can indeed be described as a cost-effective item. With proper care and maintenance, it can be cherished for 10 to 20 years or even longer. Moreover, as you wear and care for it, its texture and feel only improve. Isn't it wonderful to gradually add such knitwear to your wardrobe? It's the perfect choice for customers who appreciate quality and want to wear their garments for a long time. We highly recommend our cashmere knitwear - of exceptional quality and versatile enough for both work and casual wear. We invite you to experience our cashmere knitwear for yourself.
