10 OZ. Loopwheel crewneck sweatshirt The Real McCoy’s

Quality 10oz loopwheeled the real mccoys sweatshirt Size xxl Discontinued color This sweatshirt, made from mid-weight 10oz loopwheel knitted cotton, features a brushed loopback French terry, making it warmer and softer than its unbrushed loopback counterpart. Loopwheel machines, which produce this tubular constructed fabric, are renowned for their slow knitting pace, producing only a single meter of fabric per hour. However, this low thread tension technique is what sets them apart from contemporary manufacturing methods and creates an exceptional and distinctive fabric. The resulting material is reminiscent of hand-woven textiles and possesses a unique stretchy quality and washed look, similar to old American sweatshirts that can only be reproduced on a loopwheel knitting machine. This loopwheel sweat is knitted in Wakayama, Japan, using extremely rare machines known in Japan as Tsuriami-ki, and requires rare skills and techniques, exclusively for The Real McCoy's.
