These are our 100% Cashmere TSURIAMI loopback pants. We also talk about them in detail on YouTube, so please check it out if you’re interested.

I personally wore them every day for about three months during testing. At one point, I even started sleeping in them. Wearing them daily—initially, I thought they might be too warm, but it turned out they were incredibly comfortable. In a way, I didn’t even need the heater.

Available in two colors: Dark Navy and Charcoal Grey. Sizes range from S to XL. Retail price is ¥170,000 (excluding tax).

And with this, we wrap up our four-piece collection of 100% Cashmere TSURIAMI loopback. Yes, these are premium items—certainly not everyday prices. But the TSURIAMIKI itself is a classic, analog tool—originally never intended for anything beyond 100% cotton.

At LOOPWHEELER, we’ve spent the past 26 years facing these machines head-on. And from very early on, we’ve challenged ourselves to work with 100% cashmere yarn. It’s thanks to the passion of President Minamikata at Kanekichi Industries, and the incredible craftspeople who’ve stood beside him, that we can now bring pieces like this to life.

One day, 50 years from now, when people look back on the history of sweatwear, I hope these efforts will be recognized and appreciated.
