We’re pleased to introduce the new LW255 Short-Sleeve Sweatshirt, made with our LW Extra Light TSURIAMI loopback. It will be available starting Thursday, May 8th in Sendagaya, Friday the 9th in Osaka, and Saturday the 10th in Fukuoka. 

This piece stands as a perfect counterpart to the LW255 Short-Sleeve Sweatshirt we released last week, made with LW Heavyweight 20/2 TSURIAMI jersey. The new version uses TSURIAMI loopback, giving it a slightly thicker and fluffier feel, along with a soft, gentle touch against the skin—ideal for the season ahead. Available in six colors: Khaki Drab, Titan Gold, Insignia White, Gunship Grey, Magenta, and Grey Melange. I’m leaning toward picking up the Insignia White for myself. 

It comes in four sizes, S to XL, and is priced at ¥17,600 (tax included). I imagine many of you are back to work starting today. As for me, the final samples for our June Pre-Order Exhibition are coming together, and we’re heading into the final push. This time, while we’re only introducing one new fabric, most of the pieces feature classic silhouettes reimagined with new patterns. In that sense, they might not look drastically different, but they’ve evolved quite a bit. I hope you’ll enjoy experiencing what we always strive for—“evolving while staying true to our roots.”
