The 1st Type Trucker Jacket, crafted from hickory TSURIAMI jersey, also known as the “Nangata Special,” is now complete. It’s set to arrive in Sendagaya on Saturday, November 9, in Osaka on Sunday, November 10, and in Fukuoka on Monday, November 11. This fabric is a testament to President Nangata of Kanekichi Industries and his dedication. Even among the textile experts in our industry, I doubt there are many who would recognize the structure of this fabric as a variant of TSURIAMI jersey. I won’t say it’s impossible, but it’s likely. That’s the level of technical knitting expertise that went into its creation.

There are two back styles available: a plain version and a version with the LOOPWHEELER print.

The print uses white ink that’s diluted to reduce opacity, giving it a slightly absorbed, subtle look. The price remains the same for both the printed and non-printed versions at 63,800 yen (tax included). Think of the print as a little extra! Available in sizes S to XL. For those who have placed an order, please feel free to pick it up when convenient. Thank you very much!
